"Good software, UI sometimes a little "un-intuitive"
What do you like best about Zoho People?

We've been using Zoho People, Zoho Invoice and Zoho Recruit since about 2016. The Zoho suite works quite well, especially the interface between these components. I like the flexibility of being able to add elements and fields. There is quite detailed security available (role-based) which is helpful.

What do you dislike about Zoho People?

Some of the role based security is a bit complex and doesn't always behave in the way that I would expect. The "employee" view in "organization" doesn't always show all of the fields that I select, which is annoying but not a show-stopper. Overall, the software is very good.

What problems is Zoho People solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Zoho People as our staff database. It helps us to keep stuff organised. We keep our records in there and it works well. We also use it for our performance management which works quite well too.

I love the app available on my smartphone that allows checking-in, holiday requests and more. It's quick to load and very user friendly

What do you dislike about Zoho People?

I wish there was an addition to view accumulated annual leave and a place to view allowances or memos for particular aspects that staff can access. Also would love an easier method of communication internally as the chat feels a little clunky.

"Small, compact use for managing people/HR for a small company"
What do you like best about Zoho People?

The pricing structure works for our small business. In fact, with the Zoho People we are currently using the Free version. I am the only one in our small business that needs access to the HR so it worked out well. For years, I've managed people and HR concerns with Google Drive and Google Sheets. Not the most technical method of doing so, but it worked and was accessible from everywhere I go. I work from home but also from many other locations with my laptop and I loved that access. A former coworker recommended we check out Zoho products, and Zoho People was my first Zoho product. I like that I can separate my full-time workers from my part-time workers and these two from my contractors. The time in/out function is very helpful, and I especially like the remote/phone app for this feature. Employees can clock in from the field when on service calls.

What do you dislike about Zoho People?

The terminology was a little hard to understand at first. It's more of a converted English, which is understandable as the product is made in a country outside of the USA. There are a good bit of items that I am still learning to use, but I realize there is a lot of customization offered that I just haven't figured out. I wish there were a payroll integration with the product, that would make my HR journey with zoho complete.

What problems is Zoho People solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keeping track of employees in a small business. I've used spreadsheets for years but we simply could not afford the big picture HR programs out there, and frankly they were overkill for our five employees. Zoho People is affordable and customizable to use the functions I want.

"Zoho people the x-ray of our human capital."
What do you like best about Zoho People?

Having at my fingertips every employees information and an open API that allows me to integrate it with my existing HR tools such as our biometric timeclock.

What do you dislike about Zoho People?

The stability and features of the mobile app and the lack of homogeneous development from the rest of the Zoho platform. We currently have deployed about 12 apps from zoho and each one has it's preferences in different places with different icons and words. In general it's hard to get use to one and then track back were each one of the customization menus are. Our core zoho product is zoho projects, and that one is well used by everyone at the company, when users switch to a different app from the zoho ecosystem that are less used to use then they struggle to find the options. I would suggest to zoho, as have already done in the past, to take ALL of their apps and have a team of interface + usability experts to make look clean, simple and homogeneous. That will take Zoho to a complete different level.

What problems is Zoho People solving and how is that benefiting you?

HR control, approvals and compliance.

What do you like best about Zoho People?

I like the simple accessibility of zoho people. The integration of zoho payroll with it makes it more useful. Simple login-logout process, KRA page, attendence details, etc are useful

Sometime in KRA section the 3 or 5 points rating system will not work instead of it NA is mentioned. In the the attendence regularisation everytime the date and time needs to be added, this is irritating.

What problems is Zoho People solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zoho people help me to check with my performance Monthly, quarterly & yearly. Its daily login oogout features are useful. Data Visual details of Calendar section are also useful and also can made better if possible.

"It's decent but it can be amazing."
What do you like best about Zoho People?

It's simple, basically, it's easy to use. - UI again is very simple and straightforward. - Leave application is also pretty straightforward. - It gets the job done.

What do you dislike about Zoho People?

Well yes, the product is simple. But there are a couple of suggestions. - If the UI is more advanced it will be more interesting to use. - The team hierarchy page is not amazing. - You find bugs here and there. - It's not a perfect product, and a lot of work can be done.

What problems is Zoho People solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a user for me zoho people is helpful with leave tracking and application. It's seamless and then it also helps to understand new people joining and other basic details of them.

"Simple and very exciting to use"
What do you like best about Zoho People?

Zoho people is used by all staff members for different purposes, but mainly for human resource management. It has a cool feeling to it, especially the app. It's simplistic and the dashboard contains all the needed links and buttons to direct me to what I need. I use Zoho People as a staff member for annual appraisal and managing my yearly Leave options. It is a very simple CRM tool that connects HR, Management, and staff together for sharing updates and managing performance.

What do you dislike about Zoho People?

The only complaint or dislike about Zoho people is that the app is not as complete as the web platform where more accesses and functions are available. The look looks good and simple but can offer more in relation to its web.

What problems is Zoho People solving and how is that benefiting you?

Zoho people help with Performance management, appraisal functions, and other HR/staff matters It helps me get information about my organization, colleagues, company policies and so on. I use Zoho people to manage my Leave tracking, holidays and calendar setup etc
