"This is a scalable solution. We have not experienced any issues."
"The tool's most valuable features are the recruitment module, performance module, and document storage."
"The solution's technical support is super responsive and helpful. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"The scalability of BambooHR is good."
"I like the fact that the annual days are calculated automatically and that if annual leave is taken in the future, those days are put on hold. You know at every point how many days of annual leave are you left with and how many are on hold."
"The HR metrics that this solution provides has been most useful. We also really like the fact that employees have the ability to be self sufficient and manage their own information."
"BambooHR is accessible to users who aren't good with technology. If you don't have an IT background, you can easily find information about any employee."
"The report builder and dashboard builder are very, very good."
"The solution provides the ability to trace back records, is reliable, makes life easy, and is secure."
"The most valuable feature of Sage People is the integration with our payroll system."
"The solution's initial setup was straightforward."
"The reporting features are also very valuable because, on top of 300+ reports available on the system, you can also customize quite a number of reports."
"I guess I would say maybe that it is a more robust system."
"Without a doubt, the most valuable aspect of this solution is the reports, as it offers endless possibilities for report customization. You can easily build any report you can imagine with this system."
"The solution is beneficial overall."
"The performance could be improved. When you save some documents, it takes longer to store them in BambooHR's systems than it used to. Something needs to be upgraded or fixed in the code. Alow, we provide services to other companies, so Bamboo isn't able to help us in many areas because of the way we work."
"The UI needs improvement because it needs to be more user-friendly."
"BambooHR could be improved by managing leave in a way that transfers remaining days at the end of the annual year to the following year."
"The color palettes could be changed to make the solution a little more attractive and easier to use."
"It would be useful to have the possibility to assign a task to the different users within the software."
"We cannot add more questions to the assessments if we want to."
"If you are dealing with two or more businesses under one company name, it is not possible to transfer employees between companies if they have a separate bamboo set up."
"I would like to be able to export some documents into PDFs a little easier. Right now, only HR can update the training record and as you scale your company, managing the system can be manual and time consuming."
"The integration with our payroll system could improve. However, it is managed by another company."
"There were a couple of things that we wanted to customize, but we couldn’t do it ourselves."
"The budget module does not work. Sage People need to maybe make it more user-friendly."
"In my opinion, the performance management module of this system could use improvement as it falls behind compared to other specialized performance management platforms."
"The user interface is not great."
"Right now, Sage doesn't seem to have what we are looking for when it comes to managing HR tickets. In my previous experiences with other HR software, we had to buy another solution to obtain this functionality, and it would be a great feature for Sage to consider adding. For an HR system, Sage would do very well to include it."
"If Sage People were to become a fully cloud-based solution, it could lead to significant improvements. With the COVID pandemic highlighting the benefits of remote work, a complete shift to cloud-based functionality would be a welcome development for users."
"The automation in Sage People could improve. The solution is the best used for data storage but the automation could be better to have more functionality."
