Pros

“Its modular pricing meant we could start small and scale without needing extensive team training, while the flawless integrations with tools like Slack completely eliminated the daily interruptions. But yes, the initial setup is pretty complex and global leave accrual policies required a bit of patience.”
AM

Ananya M.

HR Administrator

“It’s important to remember that this isn't a full-scale HR system, so if you're hoping for built-in payroll processing or performance review modules, we still need separate software to handle those tasks.”
AM

Ananya M.

HR Administrator

“we started with just the leave management module to get our global PTO and regional holidays under control before scaling up to attendance.”
AM

HR Administrator

Pros

“The functionality goes beyond work-time registration, it also allows to plan, see the scheduling of other team members, who is in the office at that time.”
AS

Agnieszka S.

Learning Consultant in Learning and Development

“It is very clear and easy to use.”
MG

Mateusz G.

Architect

“I like the attendance tracking features”
PT

Pierpaolo T.

Digital Marketer

Cons

“It is not easy on the administrator side to add an employee's total vacation days for the entire year.”
JF

Jordan F.

Operations

“The portion size felt a bit small for the price.”
AK

Aneta K.

HR Specialist

“not enough developed module with projects, lack of option to add detailed tasks - we need it sometimes for specific projects”
EP

Ewelina P.

Head of Administration and Operations

Cons

“I don't like that everybody has some notification but the list is empty, and we don't know for what it stands for. But this is the one issue that I have.”
MG

Mateusz G.

Architect

“I myself can't adjust or remove some functions I don't use ( or empty questions not used).”
SK

Sandra K.

People and Culture Assistant

“small bug fixing and improvements take too long to implement.”
