Users have praised the software for its frequent updates and timely support, highlighting the potential benefits once the company staffs up. The ability to generate accurate time tracking and timely billing has been crucial for making informed business decisions.

Additionally, the data sharing and reviewing features have been well-received by users, as they provide structure and clarity when working with large amounts of data.

We use the Iris HR Software to record holidays and sick days. Our employees are able to view their own personal files at any time and anywhere. They are also able to view certain training documents that our office has uploaded into the system. We were having a lot of issues with our previous system and this program just made things much better for our employees.
  • Fantastic customer support
  • Ease of use
  • All employees have access
  • Easy to download documents
  • It can take some effort to understand
  • Perhaps the price can go down a bit
  • Menu layout
Our staff is kept updated with more company policies and we are able to track their holiday and sick days much better. The help and support of their contact support are super good. They reply super fast and are very kind. Also, their sales department isn't pushy like other services they are very knowledgeable and kind.
