Simplicity Personified
Date: Jul 05 2022SummaryGreat experience. Bamboo HR is very responsive, very helpful and very willing to listen to suggestions and then implements them quickly, if possible.
I would highly recommend Bamboo HR because it truly frees you to do your best work!PositiveIf you have never used an HRIS, Bamboo HR will make you feel wonder why you didn't take the leap years ago. If you currently use an HRIS, you will find that Bamboo HR's platform makes is approachable for all employees across the company. You will have a dashboard that puts control in the hands of your employees, freeing you to develop your team and avoid time consuming manual paperwork tasks.
NegativeBamboo has Marketplace 3rd party applications that tie into Bamboo, but unless it is tied in with two way communication you will still struggle with multiple vendors/websites to accomplish all the work you may want to do. Bamboo is working to incorporate more vertical features so they are directly connected into Bamboo. But if you use a program outside of Marketplace, then you will need to supply the programmers to ensure the coding works. Not impossible just make sure you are aware.

BambooHR stimulates our movement with human talent
Date: Mar 31 2021SummaryBambooHR has one of the best capabilities for storing and transporting employee data that we have had the opportunity to exploit. We liked that the service provides customization tools for reporting, so that we can basically apply self-service and the tracking work is automatic.
PositiveBambooHR shows very diverse dynamics in terms of human talent management, which gives us a wide variety of administrative operations of employees, such as the ability to make reports of multiple types of formats, or the possibility of sharing them through various external services, in case they are required in other departments.
NegativeBambooHR does not have sampling tools during the registration and attendance processes at the recruitment stages, so that the files of newly graduated employees never have enough information to avoid having to communicate with them again at the beginning of the first days.

PositiveBambooHR has helped us with the smooth preparation of payroll for each of our employees without the need for any errors thanks to the implementation of ATS as it allows us to build a better strength in our team.

Control and management of human capital is much simpler with BambooHR
Date: Mar 29 2021SummaryIn terms of tracking, it offers an acceptable usability, providing us with almost everything we need to carry out optimal processes of this type. In addition, it offers performance reports between employees and better attachments to improve time tracking. However, it is sometimes difficult to log in to the desktop version.
PositiveIt is more than acceptable that with BambooHR you can delegate from two to five different employees for certain data changes within your workflow. You can customize access permissions on the collaborators involved to regulate the amount of data management and data access.
NegativeThe listing in the employee directory does not allow for more information to be added. Also in Standard use its management and administration process does not have enough customization tools in the relevant information of our workflow. Other than that there is nothing else to say against the platform.

BambooHR lets us specialize in human resources documentation
Date: Mar 22 2021SummaryThere are few human talent management services that allow workflows created in other services, and that also do not lose structure quality. BambooHR is better for working in conjunction with other human resources representatives, and for all of them to centralize information from different branches in a single source.
PositiveWhen using BambooHR you get a subscription to a newsletter that announces future changes and updates to the platform, which is generally kept up to date. BambooHR supports a variety of document sheet formats, and also has its own self-service operations reporting system.
NegativeThere are many limitations in the ease with which BambooHR allows for altering outside of the default level of document accessibility, which is generally managed across multiple levels. The applicant tracking tool does not provide enough automated information about applicants who are applying to the company.

BambooHR to organize our human resources department
Date: Mar 19 2021SummaryBambooHR is a human resource management platform that we can use to simplify employee management and perform various functions, such as salary management, applicant tracking system and personnel management. This platform has helped us automate the human resources function, which allows us to stay motivated. It helps us capture and securely store employee records and easily manage our workflow, which helps us create a balanced on-call for work shifts.
PositiveWe maintain your own records (whether submitted or uploaded by the company); track vacation time, sick time and work hours earned; at the same time, allow users to easily sign documents electronically; and simplify the HR manager's job. I mean, create records (employees or temporary employees) and make sure all blocks are verified (background, drug test documentation completed correctly and any other documents that need to be signed) within the time before starting work.
NegativeI must create a document stating that my agency employees must ensure that they are removed and that they are responsible for any risk of injury, and that the company and employee agencies are not responsible for any damages that may be caused. The rest of the staffing organization does not need this document, so I still have to print 50 copies, have each employee sign one, then upload it, file it in the employee file in the software, label it, and return the copy to the employees. This really isn't a problem, unless turnover is high, which can be annoying.

BambooHR represented as the best human resources platform
Date: Mar 21 2021SummaryThis platform is amazing, it has allowed us to fit into an unimaginable scenario. Our main goal with BambooHR is to bring automation in the human resources area which leads us to guarantee all the work and peace of mind for our employees that their payrolls are in the best hands. It has helped us to store all of our employee records in a fast, secure and automated way so that we can securely manage all of the workflows that they allow us to do. We also improved our employees' trust in our company with this software.
PositiveThis platform has adapted well to our employee system, it is a huge step forward for our company and also allowed us to integrate into a sub SME company we have. It has also allowed us to manage all our employees in a fast, easy and intuitive way. It has ensured that we have a high efficiency for each user that we register and that uses the platform itself. It has also improved our processes in the human resources area.
NegativeIt loses a lot of online connection when we have a connection that fails, which sometimes reduces our use and we have to wait for everything to normalize. It should have an integrated option for offline use when we do not have access to the network and when we have access to be able to save the changes. It also needs a version for mobile devices.

BambooHR appears to be a sophisticated virtual environment for HHRR
Updated: Mar 22 2021SummaryBased on the fact that the platform automates the viewing of employee data for more talented employees, it shows that BambooHR, while not being unbiased, highlights the options with which it could thrive more in certain positions and situations, which is more useful when needing to fill staffing gaps or urgent labor needs
PositiveWith BambooHR the results obtained from applying HR department's own techniques in web reports have been very favorable. BambooHR prioritizes shortcuts to those employees or job candidates who show the best potential during probationary periods, starting from the time of the interview
NegativeBambooHR does not have a good overlay to other services that also focus on working with human talent, forcing us to manually copy information from one service to another when we use the others to get analytics from these. This is done so that file formats from the other software are not altered when they arrive in BambooHR

BambooHR mixes interesting HR and ATS features
Date: Mar 29 2021SummaryManaging lists of candidates and contacting them in a short time is one of the great capabilities that BambooHR has to offer. We like the software for the facilities it offers in terms of communication with candidates, and for being able to establish different delegates in case of not being able to fulfill all the operations.
PositiveRegarding the application of ATS oriented functions, i.e. applicant tracking, BambooHR has changed our way of perceiving and orienting ourselves within each candidate's organization, so that we can manage them much better depending on the work area we want to focus on (in case we work separating areas).
NegativeBambooHR does not present many improvements in terms of administrative management of human resources if we contrast it with other services in its category, and it is due to this lack of innovation that we can not comply with monitoring and performance management processes that we can carry out within other platforms.

BambooHR remains one of the best HHRR oriented software
Date: Apr 16 2021SummaryOur organization maintains that BambooHR is an excellent service, especially if you want to keep a complete administration of all employee processes, from recruitment operations to work quality tracking, useful for reporting. We also like its document saving capabilities.
PositiveBambooHR maintains a scheme of work where it is easy to access operations with employees, or apply self-service mechanics so that each employee can review their information and manage all their work quality processes themselves, so they can stay informed about their results.
NegativeIt is difficult to use BambooHR to bring in reports that come directly in spreadsheet type formats, mostly because BambooHR does not include enough support to run .xlsx format files. This can be problematic in the long run, as spreadsheets are one of the most commonly used work formats in the office.
