Overall Satisfaction with BambooHR®

We use Bamboo for hiring, onboarding, employee personnel files, and timekeeping. It is a huge help to have all of these services on one platform. I especially benefit from using the hiring services. It is great to send automatic messages and to track our progress in the interview process. It is also really easy to send offer letters.

Pros

  • Hiring organization.
  • Timesheets
  • Tracking time off requests for employees.

Cons

  • Sometimes glitches when pulling reports.
  • Increased applicant hiring rate.
  • Ease of use for timesheets, feedback, calendars, etc.
It is really easy to find any information I am looking for. This includes pulling reports, which can be really challenging on other platforms. Even when I don't remember where to find something, it is very intuitive and easy to problem-solve. Often, databases and HR platforms are much more confusing and don't have the ability to include as much information.
I have had a pleasant experience with BambooHR. Customer service was easy, and I answered my questions quickly when I was new to the platform. I have never had a bad experience with Bamboo or the customer care team. There's not much else to say other than that I am pleased.
I recently started using this function and benefited from it. I have easily been able to pull names/pronouns/and contact info to make attendance sheets. I can also pull their t-shirt sizes when we are doing orders. I can pull addresses for donation mailings. It is a beautiful function.
BambooHR is much better. I often found TriNet had limited info and tools. We did not bother using it for timesheets or time off requests because it was just too annoying. It was also annoying to navigate. Many links to resources took you off the website. Bamboo includes everything within the platform and makes it easy.

I think it is well suited for organizations that are doing large-scale hiring and have large teams to keep track of. It might be less necessary for smaller teams. However, I think most orgs can benefit from Bamboo HR because it makes staying organized accessible.
