This software could be of great help to many companies to keep an orderly manner and in the same control panel, all the management of their employees. Perfect for human resources departments that want to automate tedious tasks, with the guarantee that they will be well executed.

Rippling
A small/medium size business is a great space for Rippling to play. They offer many of the "good enough" items that most businesses this size would need. A complex / large organization might not benefit from the "off the shelf" version of Rippling as the workflows/automation/reporting isn't tiered for enterprise level companies. Sometimes we have to make workarounds to avoid paying the extra fees for workflows etc. that come base level for vendors like WorkDay.

Pros
Personio
  • Allows automatic posting of job offers on different sites and portals to find the perfect candidates for available vacancies.
  • It has employee tracking tools, such as attendance and absence tracking, as well as time monitoring of working hours and overtime.
  • Payroll management is very complete and is done quickly and almost automatically, as it enters hours worked, overtime and absences, with an accurate calculation to avoid errors.

Rippling
  • Rippling integrates with QuickBooks Online. As such, we no longer have to post our weekly payroll journal entry manually. The payroll journal entry syncs automatically from Rippling to QuickBooks Online weekly. This has helped saved our accounting department time.
  • The onboarding workflows in Rippling are terrific. We have been able to assign tasks to our team when we hire a new team member. This allows are staff to stay organized and it also helps ensure that all tasks are completed in advance of the new hires first day with the company.
  • We use the Rippling spend module to help manage corporate credit cards that are issued to staff members. When a staff member makes a purchase on their corporate card they receive a text message. Once the staff member receives the text message they reply to the text with a picture of the receipt and a memo describing the transaction. This process has helped alleviate the amount of admin time the accounting department spends on gathering receipts and information from card holders.
  • We really like the org chart since it can be accessed by all employees. This allows our staff to see who reports to who and what each employee's job title is. This allows for more effective lines of communication within the organization.

Cons
Personio
  • Some processes could be more automatic or with fewer clicks, for example, role-based authorization, which, although a security feature, could be simplified.
  • It is a fairly intuitive and navigable software, but because it is so complete, it has different modules, tools, and functions that can make its learning curve steep.
  • Some attributes at the time of payroll cannot be changed or customized.

Rippling
  • The goals can be a bit confusing, with subgoals and parent goals and the way progress is tracked
  • Being able to tie in our Empower 401(k) would be a great feature, if it doesn't already exist
  • Integrated support with Expensify would also be nice, if it doesn't already exist

Usability

Rippling
This software program is straightforward enough for an 8th-grade student. We work in a very technical industry, and terminology can become confusing, so we like to make it digestible for grade-schoolers to understand. Otherwise, team members can become bored with the software, which could lead to less activity and involvement, as well as care about their benefits, payroll, etc.

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 only have called once. They have a call center located in India. The people are truly helpful and helped me fixed my problem. They are very responsive and techy enough to know what causes the problem of my Rippling. The only thing that I didn't like and still needs improvement is when they spent an hour to fix my problem.

Rippling provides more features than the other products and the user interface is easier to use and integrates better with other platforms. We use NetSuite, and Rippling integrates well with NetSuite. Rippling also is a lot faster when it comes to loading screens and opening pages, PTO, organizational trees, etc

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.

Return on Investment

  • This program is complete, so it allows to have all the human resources management in the same panel, along with all the information of the employees, which streamlines the activities of the department, making us more productive. Employees feel more satisfied with our performance, and we have considerably lowered payroll complaints.
