Pros

“The Chat BOT has also improved greatly over the past few months and now manages to resolve most issues instantly, which has been a real time-saver. While there are still a few teething issues that Employment Hero is aware of and has included in their product development roadmap, it’s clear they are committed to continuous improvement.”

Lizi N.

Financial Controller

“The cons I have are not dealbreakers, but they're centred around just overall more flexibility with formatting (ability to right click on any hyperlinks or buttons) and improving the document template customisation tool.”

Shell B.

HR Advisor

“They covered every aspect clearly and if there was any confusion, the support team was incredibly responsive and knowledgeable during the implementation phase, promptly answering all my questions and ensuring I was never stuck”

Dipin C.

CFO

Pros

“The software allows me to manage my teams objectives against a time line, as well as allowing my team to view all comments and add their own.”

Julian C.

Accounts Payable Manager

“It’s extremely useful for safely storing important employee records such as right-to-work documents and DBS checks, and it helps ensure nothing is missed by tracking expiry dates.”

Georgia-Beth M.

HR Assistant

“It’s a solid HR platform for managing employee records, recruitment, and day-to-day HR processes, especially for growing companies looking for an all-in-one solution”

Will R.

SR HR Operations Specialist

Cons

“I submitted a leave request, but am unable to view its progress in the app; it displays only "Pending approval."”

Ketmanto W.

Application Support Engineer I

“The reporting features are terribly limited, doesn't calculate payments made in same pay periods like Xero and a lot of the other available software. ”

Solomon A.

Payroll

“Support system is woeful, poor training and system documentation, getting support is an act in frustration and one of Employment Hero's worst features.”

Gwilym D.

CHRO

Cons

“We primarily use it in a core, administrative capacity rather than as a platform that enables or enhances our HR strategy. While it is usable, it does not stand out in terms of user experience, flexibility, or innovation.”

William B.

Head of HR

“However, the limitations in reporting can be frustrating—particularly when more advanced or multi‑layered data is needed. While it works well for straightforward tasks, the lack of flexibility in generating detailed or combined queries holds the system back from being fully effective for more complex HR reporting needs.”

Avani G.

HR Administrator

“Some features can feel limited or not very intuitive, and reporting/customisation options aren’t always as flexible as needed, which can make more complex tasks a bit frustrating.”

Youssef A.

Compliance Officer
