Overall Satisfaction with Sympa, from Recruitee

We use Sympa as a custom HR Portal and it houses a wealth of information for staff members. Personally, I used it heavily to guide me during my onboarding with set tasks that were assigned to me. It's also where I update my quarterly quota numbers and enter my yearly PDP details. I can also look up our entire org chart and find contact details and employment info for all our employees - especially helpful since we're a global company. It's also used for PTO requests making it simple to track your available days off that remain.
  • Customized interface.
  • Global Org Chart/Employee lookup.
  • Onboarding tasks.
  • Updating and reviewing personal goals, quotas, and PDP.
  • Loading speeds have been a bit slow at points.
  • Our customized interface is easy to use but beginning to feel a bit dated (could use a refresh).
  • Minor user-interface features could be added to take it to the next level.
  • Provides visibility to all things HR.
  • On demand access so you don't need to wait on replies from HR.

Yes

Did Sympa live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Would you buy Sympa again?

Yes

In my usage of Sympa, I find that it's very useful for onboarding, goal management, and organizational structure lookups. I haven't yet experienced any areas where it doesn't work well or isn't appropriate. We have many other software systems that work in tandem with Sympa.
