The most helpful part of Bamboo are all the tutorials that are available...they are informative and easy to follow.
Sometimes it feels like we have more product than what we need and I wish there was more support when it comes to state withholdings....we still have a lot of things that we do manually that I wish were more automated.
Bamboo is solving the problem of processing payroll which helps to free up my time for other projects.
There are many features I have wanted in other HRMS tools that always seemed to be missing. BambooHR has them. Some examples are a PTO balance and calculator, a list of birthdays, a list of when people in the company are on PTO, and more. I have worked at countless other companies where I wanted these features but they weren't present.
I wish that BambooHR allowed for more granular controls. For instance I would want to see how many people signed a specific document but can't do that unless I have the permission to see how many people signed all documents.
BambooHR helps me with my own uses such as PTO tracking and calculations. It also helps me know about new employees so I can complete necessary on boarding tasks for them like assigning training upon their start date.
How quickly any issues I have are resolved. The real time responses are great in the live chat.
I wish there was a little easier of a way to write an overview of someone to look back over. I know there are Notes I can leave but it would be nice to have the note pop up next to the persons name when I search them.
Aplicant tracking is much more centralized, which I love. This is no fault of Bamboo's but I do wish I could link all of my external job posts through Bamboo too. For instance, since the visability of the posts Bamboo puts on indeed is lower than the paid posts, I also have a payed indeed account, and it would be really nice to be able to track those applicants through bamboo as well.
I can stor EE docs simply by ea EE, can send docs for sig electronically, keeps things organized. I track time off, benefits, etc. Very user friendly.
I just need to carve out some time to learn more about what Bamboo can do for us.
Issuing and tracking and storing required signed docs - saves time! Tracking time off and benfits
How the interface is user friendly and easy to access
When it comes to the performance tab, there is restrition to auto trigger the assessment for probationary employees
Document and record keeping
I have been using BambooHR for the past 3 years and it has been a very good experience so far. The things that I like about BambooHR are: I can easily apply for leave and also see my colleagues who are on leave and what holidays are coming up. I also like the directory option where I can see my whole organization and their professional information. I also like the feature about posting jobs and its job portal features where I can see all the applicants' information and from there itself I can select or reject candidates for the next rounds. I use it on regular basis and also integrated with Slack so that I get notified about any new notifications.
I like all the features it has right now, but I think it can add some default messages for sick leaves or any leaves so that we can use it without having to write it ourselves.
BambooHR is solving multiple problems for the organization like helping maintain everyone's leaves and maintaining everyone's device information. It has been a great help in posting jobs and during the recruitment process.
Decent HR platform with basic ATS features
Lack of ATS search function and recruitment tools
Application management
The simplicity and ease of use for Administrators and for Employees. The number of features is very nice. The time tracking has been very beneficial for our company. Anytime I have a question, I receive a quick response from Customer Service.
I do not really have anything negative to say.
We started using the time tracking system which elimiated the old paper time cards and has been so much better and easier. Especially for Managers when approving time and HR when submitting time to Corporate.
A streamlined program that automates our process. Performance Management and goal setting are great. Signature templates are awesome. The program is so easy to use. Implementation and customer support were easy. We use the program regularly to send announcements to all employees.
We would like more fields available for creating our own reports including performance assessments.
BambooHR helps us to make sure we are compliant with laws and regulations with all employee relations and files.
It's very easy to use. We are a medium size company and it fits our needs very well.
I wish that some of the apps available for integration be free, especially the ones created by Bamboo HR. Also, it'd be nice if the system didn't log you out after some time of inactivity.
Bamboo HR is a turnkey solution to all the HR needs of our company size (medium).
