Brightmine
XpertHR is well suited to providing a good starting point for introducing a new policy or reviewing an existing one. The content organization helps reduce the risk of overlooking relevant considerations. A section on Trending topics provides a helpful prompt to keep current on current issues. The regular email alerts are sound, too, flagging up new resources.

Cons
Brightmine
  • The employment law service is a bit too basic. The lawyer often gives you very basic or scripted advice that is not tailored to the situation needed
  • The functionality search sometimes is not great. You risk getting lost between hundreds of articles without finding what you really need
  • Sometimes the articles are too lengthy and you only need a very quick response

  • Onboarding Paperwork - It would be great if there was only one website we had to log into. For example, I have to log into one to send paperwork, and then log into another domain to check the paperwork sent.
  • Note Timeline - Anytime any application is touched, viewed, etc. a note is made. We also utilize the note feature to communicate about each applicant. However, it gets quite messy when their are over 40 notes and you are not able to sort or organize them.
  • Attachments - Can't attach items in notes, would be nice feature for attaching images, snippets, pdfs, etc.

Usability

It's great and mostly user friendly. Some of the team have skipped over great information in there as the site was not as intuitive as expected, e.g. finding particular templates

Alternatives Considered
Brightmine
I have not directly used it but used it by passing on questions and queries to my HR network to obtain their advice. Often I felt that they do not provide direct advice to directly address my concerns or queries but more generic feedback that might be applicable or not. I think their advice often provides multiple and vague outcomes but not tailored to the outcome the business wants

WorkBright was selected as the primary HR software within our company. One of the main reasons it was selected is the intuitive user interface and dashboard. Additionally, the software had excellent features for the cost such as custom reporting, notifications, enhanced security, and training. WorkBright offered many features that other HR software in the same price range did not.

WE only use it in HR but, I have no doubt that it could be scaled across other sites / teams.

Return on Investment
Brightmine
  • saves so much valuable time when updating policies which is huge as we have a small team and time is limited.
  • Normally, it saves time on hours or research as you can find it all on the site, including salary review data.
  • Reduces the cost of using employment lawyers all the time for policy updating and other advice.
  • It's like a one-stop shop that enables the user to find everything they need on a multitude of topics with extensive information that requires minimal time by the user, but to search for that information individually would take hours, if not days, in some cases.

  • Huge return on investment in terms of time needed to circulate new openings nationally.
  • Very positive impact on speed with which interviewer can contact prospective employees.
  • Outstanding onboarding for new employees. Tick 5 boxes and all info is emailed directly to the new employee.
  • Very challenging build process that took many weeks to fully integrate.
