Pros

“The interface is intuitive, well-organized, and makes HR processes much simpler on a daily basis, especially tasks like employee management, time-off tracking, and onboarding.”
TR

Tamires R.

Payroll analyst

“It helped streamline administrative processes and provided a good experience for both employees and administrators. While there is room for improvement in advanced customization and reporting, I found BambooHR to be a reliable and user-friendly HR solution that meets the needs of most small to medium-sized organizations.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Shruti D.

Regulatory Manager

“It simplifies daily administrative tasks like checking vacation balances and submitting feedback. While the user experience is generally positive, resolving the stability of the org chart and adding an "auto-save" or longer session duration for feedback forms would make it much better.”
SG

Santiago G.

Product Manager

Pros

“Ability to create country-specific menus and user experiences, allowing employees and managers to see information that is relevant to their location and legislative environment.”
FJ

Fiona J.

Global People and Culture Manager

“The system has helped to streamline various HR processes, especially in managing employee records, maintaining an organized employee database, and supporting performance appraisal activities.”
LL

Lily L.

Human Resource Manager

“The performance appraisal feature is very useful because it helps track employee goals, evaluate performance fairly, and provide feedback that supports staff development.”
LL

Lily L.

Human Resource Manager

Cons

“Administrative control is also hampered by overly restrictive user permissions that prevent granular access for managers, while the Applicant Tracking System lacks the automated communication workflows necessary for high-volume recruitment. While the interface is user-friendly for basic HR tasks, these limitations create bottlenecks for growing teams with sophisticated operational requirements.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Marquita V.

SALES MANAGER

“Also, for new hire paperwork, it is difficult to parse the forms and then there are glitches when new hires fill out the forms (also it doesn't work right on the app, so they are forced to use a computer to fill out the forms)”
LF

Laura F.

HR Associate

“Every single time I want to add a candidate, I have to manually type or copy-paste all their details and resume info into the system. When you're doing high-volume hiring, this wastes hours of my week.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Denis M.

Recruiter

Cons

“Merging the roster together with clock in and payroll, This would have been seamless but the process seems tedious.”
NM

NURUDEEN M.

Human Resource

“Before ClayHR, I was spending more time managing processes than managing people.”
