Rippling a great one-stop shop for HR and IT needs
We lacked a reliable source of truth that could do more than just be an HRIS. With Ripplings many available modules, it has turned into somewhat of a one-stop shop. We aren't using all the modules available or even app management yet, but have benefitted from using it in the past year since adoption. Their PEO option worked really well for us as we employ in various countries.
- Approval policies can be set up for nearly everything you want them for
- Automations with customizable workflow
- Custom fields allow you to store the data you want and use it however you need with flexible reporting
- Data manager lets you see everything in one place
- Transition flows can take a while to load
- Report building is extremely customizable, but the UI isn't as intuitive as other tools I've worked in
- Approvals are sent via email, but aren't always stored in an approval queue within Rippling, so it's very easy to miss an approval
Rippling
- Payroll
- Benefits
- Hiring
- App management
- Taxes
- State tax account setup
Great Product for all your HR needs.
- Easy management of benefits.
- Easy management of PTO.
- Easy management of payroll.
- Access to more perks and benefits that larger companies have access to. For ex, discounts on electronics, cars, etc.
- Access to upskilling apps.
- Integrating IT management would make it complete.
Nightmare to cancel
- Integration across multiple systems
- Contracts are structured to pay for maximum fixed users, not for variable
- In my experience, Customer support gives you the runaround when you want to downgrade or cancel
Reliable Rippling
- Benefits Management
- Team Information Management
- Payroll Management
- Modern UX/interface design
- Easier customer service
Growing companies: Easily manage HR as teams expand.
Efficiency seekers: Automate tasks to save time and resources.
Simple HR needs: Focus on core functionalities without overwhelm.
Rippling might not be best for:
Highly complex HR: Unique processes may require specialized solutions.
Cloud-based hesitation: Some prefer traditional on-premises systems.
Large international workforce: Current focus is on the US.
User Friendly and Simplicity of the system!
- User Friendly on Layout and Access
- Streamlines processes easily
- On time information processed
- On PTO, allowing you to choose current year or upcoming year as you start to finish out that current year. People start planning time off and would like to put it in for upcoming calendar year.
Scenario was needing pay stubs and information when going through my divorce and all the information I needed was not only easily accessible, but easily available to send over to my attorney.
OUTSTANDING COMPANY !
- Display information organized
- App is great
- Easy to use where we know were everything is at all times
- Very straight forward
- Too many updates on the app
- Fow what we use it at least there is nothing else i would improve, maybe there is , but for what we use it which is to see payroll and clock in and clock out all is great.
The all-in-one HRIS platform
- Simple user interface and organic layout
- Makes processing payroll simple and convenient
- Easy to navigate from an admin standpoint
- Makes on and offboarding super easy and intuitive
- We would like to see a scheduling app so we can manage employees schedules from a hybrid perspective.

- Simple benefit election
- Integration with other software
- Clear organization managment
- No major changes, really like the software!
Great App Easy To Use
such an easy app :)
- requesting time off
- checking my hours on a weekly basis
- doing the courses on the app
- checking all the benefits of the insurance
- checking payroll on previous months
- have the time calculated all together and not have approved/PTO/holiday.
- lock the payroll with a code (for safety feature)
- sending reminder on the app for the courses about to expire.
The app is updating constantly so we always have the newest version and never stuck.
I find this app great and very good for everyone!
Intuitive and easy!
- Great visuals on org charts
- Reporting function
- Easy onboarding
- System doesn’t allow reporting customization
- Too many tabs pointing to the same info
The Reporting customization is limited- I need a “transfer date” option or a better way to track employee suspensions like LOA, Medical leave, etc.
Awesome App Very efficient
- clock in/clock out feature
- keeping up to date on daily task with expiration/due date feature
- keeping record of time attendance/payroll
- No complaints
- NA

As a new platform, a delight to make the switch.

- onboarding transparency for all parties involved
Rippling Feedback

Blew @ Associates Review
- Enrollments
- Employee Engagement
- Reporting: it can be very complicated.
- Employee profiles: the profiles can't be mergered with terminated account when rehired
- Payroll: Hours don't merge over correctly.
Payroll is alot of manual data entry.
Tickets submitted can take 24-48 hours to get a response.
There is no option to rehire an employee.
Rippling Review
- Payroll
- Benefits
- Great user interface, easy to operate
- org chart structure
- sometimes difficult to log in, but I guess that is good to keep it safe
Rippling has the firepower you need to rock your People Processes and take your company to the next level!
- Insurance Elections and Benefits Management
- Time Keeping, PTO, and Payroll
- Employee Onboarding and Employee Information storage/retrieval.
- The immediate learning curve of working with workflows and recipes
- Building Reports from scratch can be fairly tedious and time consuming. Not streamlined because of having to drill down click by click.
- I am still mystified by all of the formulas that can be used to make custom reports. Rippling is robust and it takes a lot to learn what it can really do.
An HR Manager's Rippling Review

Less Appropriate: Trying to find online tutorials on new features without having to email support@rippling

- Keeps track of documents
- Easy PTO requests
- A go-to hub for everything.

Rippling is easy to use and navigate!

- An interactive calendar view for time off requests
- More details on insurance information, i.e. policy #s
