"This is a scalable solution. We have not experienced any issues."

"The product is user-friendly."
"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."

"The most valuable feature of the solution is its stability."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"In the BambooHR performance management annual evaluations we have some limits to the questions. We can only add four extra questions, and they already have three basic questions, this is not easy for us. We would like to have more flexibility with the questions."
"BambooHR needs to have more flexibility around performance management."
"There are some issues with the job tab under my info where you add the salary."
"We cannot add more questions to the assessments if we want to."
"It would be useful to have the possibility to assign a task to the different users within the software."
"This solution could be improved by lowering the cost of support."
"Stability is an area where the solution lacks and needs to be improved."
"The API integration could be better."
"If there is another release, they should look at going to mobile computing to stay competitive."
"The product is not intuitive, and finding the right candidate can be arduous."
"PeopleSoft lacks integration capabilities."
"I would like to see it become available again in Mexico."
"The area that could be improved is the upgrade process, it's not the easiest. Oracle stopped supporting our version. So we have to move either to the cloud or work in a non-supported situation. That was certainly a disadvantage. That's also the reason why we decided not to stay with Oracle. Now we are moving to SAP."
