Rippling
We are continually expanding our use of Rippling. Although we moved away from their ATS, we added app management in the fall and will be adding device and inventory management shortly. Rippling has proven to be well suited to the following situations: 1) our fast-growing, multi-state, multi-country workforce 2) bringing IT and people operations together (with app, device, and inventory management) and boosting the reach and impact of our 1-person IT team 3) consolidating your tech stack. We use separate software for spend management and survey engagement, but will consider pivoting to Rippling's products in these areas in the future

Rippling
  • The platform is super easy to use (even on your first time using)
  • The simplicity of the platform makes people visit it more and want to use it. Other softwares can be complicated and hard to navigate.
  • The organization chart (especially for new employees) helps figure out who everyone is and what their role is.

Cons

  • The Northpass solution could use some minor improvements in timing and scheduling of training along with notifications to end-users

  • The time off management section asks me to either select an entire day, or, ask me to enter a start time for hours off, then ask for how many hours off. A good fix would be to let me enter when a work day starts/ends and have the system do the math for you by just entering when you will leave.

Because it is through my current job I would recommend it to other friends with businesses both large and small. It is an easy to use app and it is super helpful and beneficial for time tracking and ensuring accuracy of the time clock. It notifies you when you are close to your allotted PTO limit which is also a neat feature.

Rippling's intuitive design allows an organization to modify features and add functionality in a flexible and efficient manner. With Rippling, the finance team was able to integrate different business requirements very quickly without the need to incur consultant fees. A startup is always changing in terms of organization, salaries, direct reporting, and departments. With Rippling we were implementing changes as quickly as they arose and while meeting other legal and regulatory reporting requirements.

I like that the availability in using Rippling at any given time is useful to me. Getting on the site freely when I need gives me security of knowing that I can be in control of viewing health insurance and hours information. I have yet to get any errors in using the Rippling app.

Rippling's performance has been great, no errors or glitches yet so far. I am confident that Going from one page to the next and all its complexity usage does not lag or times out, it works effectively and efficiently. While using Rippling and other apps it does not tend to slow it down, works great. No complaints.

I would give it a 10 but sometimes there is a long lag time in getting help on more complex items. Quick HR items are dealt with quickly, but others like state employee taxes and such take much more longer to get to the right person to help out

Rippling is much better for dividing paychecks. It also has a much easier user interface and user experience. Rippling offers a much wider range of features and functionality than Quickbooks. Also, Rippling provides better data analytics and visualization for paychecks than Quickbooks. Overall, I believe Rippling stacks up much better when compared to Quickbooks.

I can go on here and see all my hours and pto plus health benefits. I like to have the work handbook handy to refer to legal things. How to work my role within it's limits. Being able to put in my hours and view when they are approved is a huge benefit for me.

  • I feel like it has dramatically sped up general onboarding time. New employees do not need to dedicate 2-3 hours with HR just to get their work documentation submitted on their first day. This has resulted in more time back to the employee to learn the ins/outs of their role.
  • The notification and task system has allowed for staff to be in charge of their benefits and puts less time on managers to constantly follow up and remind their team.
