Overall Satisfaction with BambooHR®

We use BambooHR for paychecks, for benefits tracking, for PTO and sick time management, for performance reviews, and at various times during the feedback cycle. We also use it for organizational management and for training purposes to document what employees have completed training, and for storing all of their training documents.

Pros

  • Consolidates all of the necessary HR information into one centralized location
  • Helps me track all of the necessary information from my direct reports
  • Helps me easily track my PTO and sick time and progress on that throughout the year

Cons

  • The UI is super basic and could use some more color and interaction
  • There are lots of portions of it that are really busy and visually overwhelming
It is very easy to use and navigate. As stated before, I think some UI improvements would help the overall aesthetic of BambooHR because it is very basic looking from a visual standpoint and there are definitely pages that are really busy, but it is easy to navigate from an overall standpoint.
I find the reports very helpful and easy to access for myself and for all of my direct reports.
I am not qualified to speak into this- I am an end user as a people manager, but our HR department were the ones who evaluated other platforms.
