  • Affordable price for services offered.
  • Streamlining new hire onboarding into one system.
  • Streamlining benefits enrollment process in one system.
No Ripple effect for changes!
The Rippling team has been exceptional to work with! They are all trained very well in how Rippling works and they know who on their team to contact for additional clarification. This type of support I've never seen before in my 10 years of implementing new HRIS systems.
The access/roles could be better. Having a way to give the manager additional access without making them an admin.

All our staff uses Rippling to some extent whether it be time off approvals or report writing. Additionally our senior leadership also utilizes reporting function.

My team of 3 manages the system but for the most part it can be run by one person ongoing. We have a Benefits Specialist who manages the benefit side of the system. Some technical skill is required for formula building but it's similar to excel so easy to learn.
  • Automation
  • Cost
  • Leader Reporting
  • Ease of Use
  • Workflows have expanded into greater detail for additional automation
  • Integrations with countless systems for less manual work
  • Quick and easy payroll process and trustworthy tax processing
  • Headcount planning
  • Performance Management
Rippling continues to innovate and amaze me with their new innovations and features. Product feedback is taken seriously so I always give it whenever I can and end up seeing results. Rippling is the new wave of HRIS that cannot compare against others in the industry just due to the fact they are super user friendly!
It's important for us to have issues resolved in a quick time especially when it comes to payroll. Premium support was necessary for us.
Yes
Bug with HSA however it was identified and fixed quickly by Rippling and they took on the penalty for having to change former payrolls.
Countless times! Some highlights include during our implementation when we had to rush install our benefits portal to serve open enrollment before our contract started in January. Other times have been setting up workflows and formulas. We use them heavy at our company to give information to leaders. Whenever I create an odd workflow or formula I can always double check with the support team. Sometimes even in chat so I can quickly get the fields updated. The turn around time for the support team is exceptional to the point I feel like I always can get my answer within a day or at least details within a day.

Our organization uses Rippling for our applicant tracking system, payroll, and employee management. As a small non-profit, the majority of our funding is dedicated to programming so we don't have a large budget for administrative and HR related systems. I researched and completed trials of several well known platforms to meet our needs in this area but they were either too expensive or didn't provide the flexibility we needed to customize our implementation. The ability to choose which services we did/didn't need was our primary reason for choosing Rippling. From the demo to signing the contract, our dedicated representative was very responsive and helpful. Not having to deal with a bot during the process was such a huge relief. Rippling has saved our team a tremendous amount of administrative hours and the integrations to other third-party services has been an added bonus.

I think the platform is a great option for small to mid-size organizations looking for a flexible plan and payment options.

  • Faster recruitment of employee candidates
  • Less time spent on manual tasks
  • Single repository for sensitive data
Support team members have always provided timely and helpful responses.
User friendly interface.
No. It's not within our budget but also didn't anticipate needing to use it often.
No
When Silicon Valley bank was seized by the Federal Reserve early this year, Rippling was very upfront about the dilemma it was facing and what they were doing to regain access to customers' funds. To my utter surprise, the company used their own money to cover payroll processing for their customers while they awaited release of the funds held by the Federal Reserve. Needless to say, my employees were extremely grateful and understood the value this company added to our operations in such a short period of time. As an employer, I applaud the company for doing this and as a result I added additional features to our implementation because I envision sticking with the platform for the foreseeable future.
