"The scalability of BambooHR is good."
"The product is user-friendly."
"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."
"I can easily go to BambooHR to search for any staff member in the company."
"The performance goals and personal features of every employee with the dashboard is most valuable."
"System usability has improved to a large extent and our manual effort has been reduced."
"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."
"The UI needs improvement because it needs to be more user-friendly."
"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."
"It would be good to include more options for approvals and workflows. They are deliberately not the most sophisticated version of anything that they do, but it is like 80/20. They hit the vast majority of all the needs, but I have started to run up against the limits of their functionality. It has forced me to start paying attention to the marketplace or sending feedback to BambooHR. Clients are still happy though. Timesheets is a new area in which they're slowly expanding. It is currently very limited, but it meets the needs of standard nine-to-five salary employees who just want to be able to key in their time, have it approved, and then pushed off to payroll. It does not have any of the bells and whistles that an hourly employee or hourly worker might need. That is one area that is currently limited, but they have integrations with some of the best companies that do that."
"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."
"It would be useful to have the possibility to assign a task to the different users within the software."
"The color palettes could be changed to make the solution a little more attractive and easier to use."
"Analytics is one area where this system really needs a large improvement because currently, it has only basic reporting features."
