Access PeopleHR vs. Perdoo

It's simple to use even for non-technical employees, making it very simple to install even for a workforce that hasn't grown up in the digital age, and for that People HR is the best option to fit in. I haven't got in any situation yet where I see People HR as less appropriate except Applications Tracking Systems as I have never worked on that module much.

Perdoo would be a great tool for companies that have been through a couple of OKR cycles and have developed a somewhat mature process. It then becomes a very helpful platform to streamline all steps, from design, review, up to post-mortem. It's also a great tool for companies who want to focus on the OKR process, but are not too interested in mixing it up with other frameworks, and other features, like performance reviews, etc. For us, this focus on the core of OKR is a big plus, as it drives simplicity and makes adoption easier.

• Complex reporting is made easy through the reporting capabilities of the system. We have been using reports for the past year and absolutely trust the accuracy of the data produced. The reports are generated easily through the system and can be exported into an editable Excel spreadsheet which is great.
• The self-service of data is great for freeing up HR time. Employees can update their personal information themselves quickly and easily.
• The App is a great feature of People HR. A large proportion of our employees work in our warehouse and as such don't have their own computer at work. The app allows those employees easy access to the system on the go.

• OKR roadmap: I like how clearly this lays out the connections between the different levels of OKRs (team, company, long term etc)
• OKR Webinar: they have a great OKR 101 type webinar that we made all our leaders go through, even those who had worked with OKRs before, to ensure that we were all on the same page. Perdoo is very intentional and thoughtful about the terms they use.
• Initiatives: I really like that Perdoo goes down to the initial level, not just OKR. Initiatives are the projects/tasks that roll up under each KR to actually get to the result.
• slack updates: I like seeing the notifications come through when colleagues update something in Perdoo. fun to see progress!

• The UI could do with being more Up to date, i find it easy to use but is quite cartoon like.
• More Details for skills is required, I have some certifications but the system does not recognise the Brand
• Emails that are sent out could use an overhaul as they don't stand out as much as i think they should

• The existing mobile apps are not very usable
• Sometimes new features are added while the old features have technical issues
• Speed of support could be better

Prior to initially taking out our PeopleHR contract i reviewed many HR systems and PeopleHR seemed the best option as it seemed to have the most functionality for the best price. However that was many years ago now and since being a customer of PeopleHR and now going with Timetastic, i wouldn't recommend PeopleHR. The costs have increased substantially but there hasn't been any significant improvements in the software that we've seen/utilised. There's also a lot of system issues that seem to occur frequently. Not to mention the service has taken a total nosedive since PeopleHR were taken over by Access. Whilst Timetastic is a much more basic system and really just a holiday planner, the cost is cheaper than anything I've seen on the market. For the more HRIS functionality, we've opted to utilise our O365 and create a Sharepoint HR Management Site which is much more cost effecitve us and we can avoid having to deal with Access which is a huge plus

I've used Lattice and I liked their OKR UI a lot, it was simple and easy to use but (at least when I used it) lacked some of the functionality that we found in Perdoo. My team got a bit frustrated with Lattice Ally was robust and had a lot of good features, we just ended up going with Perdoo because they were comparable and we loved the OKR webinar.

• PeopleHR has reduced the amount of holiday queries coming through to the HR Team. This has saved us around 2 hours per week.
• PeopleHR has increased visibility to line managers of their team and indirect reports for holiday / time management.
• The ATS has enabled us to automate responses/templates to all candidates applying for roles, send updates, reject, invite to interview etc. in a much quicker time frame. This has reduced hours of work writing emails per week.
• PeopleHR has given more responsibility and ownership to our managers to do their roles.
