Overall Satisfaction with BambooHR

My organization uses BambooHR for most if not all HR functions. Tracking attendance, benefits, and utilizes the full onboarding experience. I am new to the HR world and BambooHR has been a fantastic tool to learn about the profession and also streamline some processes for the company. I would like to continue to learn more functions to keep making HR functions for the company simpler.
  • Providing assistance to issues in a quick response.
  • Proving information in both video and written form.
  • User friendliness.
  • Consolidating Forms
  • Onboarding communication
  • Running reports
  • Much improved onboarding process
  • Clarity with documentation
  • Understanding of HR's role
Overall I believe this aspect is very well done. As a first time HR rep this application has been excellent in helping me navigate HR functions within my role and company. As I continue to grow in the role and using BambooHR regularly, I will find myself having a comfortability with the functions.
I have had the contact BambooHR support multiple times since beginning in this role. They have always responded within a 24 hour period. This has allowed me to continue to learn the functions of BambooHR with little set back when I do need a question answered from the support team.
It has been a huge relief and valuable function for the company. It provides a quick and easy way to access reports especially when needed in a timely manner. It has helped make the company look professional as well with how the reports are processed and look. I look forward to utilizing the reports function more.
In my previous role I used Paycor and Paycor Recruiting. This application was hard to use. It was not user friendly, slow, and the functionality was weak. Bambo provides and much better user friendly functions. I would not recommend Paycor for any future roles in this company or for colleagues.

This is the first platform I am using as a HR Generalist and it has been very accommodating and user friendly.
