"Rippling is such an improvement over our previous PEO"
What do you like best about Rippling?

I love the fact that Rippling has so many features. It makes it a great one-stop location for several pieces of software that are housed with different companies. I am excited that we can pay both our W2 employees and 1099 contractors all within the same platform. Our previous PEO started that way, and then, midway through our first year, they dropped the 1099 component.

What do you dislike about Rippling?

It's a lot thrown at you all at once, and I'll be the first to admit, that they do a great job dripping the next steps. It just feels like a lot but that's because it is a lot.

What problems is Rippling solving and how is that benefiting you?

We hire employees all over the United States. For a period of time, we managed this on our own and quickly discovered the need for a better solution so we turned to PEOs. It makes our lives a lot easier with managing nationwide benefits and tax filings.

"Easy to use and works great"
What do you like best about Rippling?

Very organized and seamless with a ton of extra features and product support for any circumstance or business relationship I love how automated and intuitive the interface is. I'm so thankful I found this product because I can't imagine working without it now.

What do you dislike about Rippling?

There's been a couple of bugs along the way but everything is quickly resolved when pointed out to the customer care support team. Since we're running a smaller and lean operation, sometimes the extra features and add-ons can be a tad overwhelming since theyre not applicable to our situation, but it just takes one click to get back on track.

What problems is Rippling solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing our employees and contractors and essentially automating our payroll functions to be as easy and painless as possible.

"Smart and user friendly system"
What do you like best about Rippling?

Rippling is extremely smart as a system and very user friendly. My favorite features are definitely the live chat customer service and the Rippling help guides. If ever I have a question about something I'm unsure of whether is insurance or payroll related, Rippling makes it easy to get assistance.

What do you dislike about Rippling?

I do not currently have any dislikes for Rippling. My experience has been wholely positive.

What problems is Rippling solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a very small company, Rippling makes it easy for me to keep our ducks in a row. The integrations with Checkr and Carta make it really easy to insure that data is accurate accross all systems.

"Excellent, State-of-the-Art Payroll and HR Platform"
What do you like best about Rippling?

Rippling is what you would want in an HR Platform in 2023. Rich functionality, everything from automated onboarding with e-signatures, to automatic integration of apps such as Asana, Office 365, KnowBe4, Ramp, etc.

What do you dislike about Rippling?

Their hardware management functionality appears to be limited to Apple equipment--we use Windows PCs. But that's a very minor nit--there is so much automation that saves time and effort.

What problems is Rippling solving and how is that benefiting you?

We're an early-stage manufacturer, so Rippling's ability to automate processes saves us time and lets us minimize the need to add HR heads. Their HR Helpdesk functionality made it very quick and easy to generate a comprehensive employee handbook. And the Applicant Tracking System has made hiring new employees much easier than it would have been without it.
