Get it, it's a no brainer BambooHR is the best HRM system I have ever used; I recommend it to everyone I know! UI is exceptional and intuitive, resulting in zero need to train users. I particularly enjoy its performance management processes. They're quick, easy and low effort for users. The FAQs and help guides are excellent. It's easy to find out an answer without the need to reach out to their support team. Get it, it's a no brainer.

Easy & Pretty, but the Worse Bamboo is easy to use and looks pretty, but their customer support is the absolute worse. When I ask a question, they ask me to read an article or it just gets bounced around from person to person and does not actually get resolved. Or they attempt to resolve it but ask you first to answer 15+ questions. We are using the advantage package, which you would think covers everything since it costs $450 USD per month. But you have to pay extra for performance management. There is no option to bulk download all your employee data you would have to do it person by person. So once you enter the data in their system good luck getting it out. If I knew all this before I joined I would have gone with another HRIS system.

BambooHR sucks, fix your sales BambooHR maybe a good software, but their SDRs are atrocious. 2 SDRs for BambooHR contacted me, with no prior intimation. They then refused to inform me about pricing except over phone. A 5 minute phone call to tell me about pricing took more than 3 weeks, and I was required to schedule time with an SDR who just wasn't empowered to offer me a quote over email or online. I run a B2B company, and a client should be able to find you when they want. This includes the ability to send proposals offline, when they can be reviewed. For a company that insists on calling you to give a price, primarily implies that 1. They are not transparent and offer a different price to every customer, which is anti-market, or else, 2. Disorganised, where a proposal or RFP requires 2 chaps to come to an outcome or an offer, no sales cadence at all. This is 2019. This sort of customer experience is unimaginative, abhorred, and speaks of a customer culture that is broken. Ben Peterson, your company can do better, maybe take a minute out of planning an exit and explain why pricing is not offered on your site and small customers, that you are purportedly built for, are being treated like 6th graders.

Poor features, poor interface, needs an overhaul and expensive I've used Bamboo in a number of organisations and I can only assume they fired all of their software developers in the year 2000 because the interface and features are what I'd expect from that era. One-to-ones are a good example. This is a critical activity within HR to loop after people, yet one-to-ones are displayed in a table with narrow columns AND IN REVERSE ORDER. Who the hell though that was a good idea?

Makes managing people much easier As a manager of a marketing team, HR responsibilities can become a huge distraction to the work I actually need to get done. HR became something I hated dealing with, but Bamboo HR has made it so much easier. Their platform is great and easy to work with. Employees have the responsibility to do a lot of the work themselves, but the manager can do a lot of HR-related tasks easily and quickly on their platform. The automation of certain HR responsibilities makes my life much easier. I think anyone looking to automate more HR would be very happy with Bamboo HR.
