    None. We used our own self made folders and spreadsheets prior to Bamboo.

    Chose BambooHR®
    scalability is an issue with BambooHR (missing lot of competent), integration with other tools (EDI feed, compliance etc)
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    BambooHR® is not in the same category as others that I have used. BambooHR is truly comprehensive and if you pay for all the extras, you wouldn't need anything else. The parts we use are great for us and the fact that we can add custom fields means that our unique needs are …

    Chose BambooHR®
    Lattice is much more oriented towards performance management. It includes many more advanced performance management features from building actual assessments to also performance development planning. BambooHR® for us was a place to centralize our data and build from within as …

    Chose BambooHR®
    In my experience, I prefer overall reporting and functionality of Rippling, Gusto, and Ease.
    It is on par with Employee Navigator and Paycom (due to more user friendly design)
    Prefer to Worklio, Paylocity, and ADP Workforce.
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    I used to use workday at a past company and BambooHR® is less extensive but very easy to use. Again, the features and functionality on the former were more fleshed out and readily available but the functions that I use most often are more easily accessible via BambooHR®.

    Chose BambooHR®
    Not as well as any of them. I am not a QBO Payroll fan either but they are better than BambooHR®.
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    We have tried other system, but they were less user friendly and they were doing so much other stuff that they were not fulfilling correctly our needs. BambooHR® is a really nice tool to use, user friendly, and just the functions we need from an HR tool. It's great for the …

    Chose BambooHR®
    Used them before and wanted to try something new, overall it was a much easier product to use and get a handle on.
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    Bamboo HR is so so much more user-friendly and easier to navigate on both the admin and employee side of things. This significantly helps reduce headaches and frustration when something needs correction. There is always something that will need to be fixed, so having a platform …

    BambooHR is the best, but unfortunately, it doesn't currently have an adequate payroll module for our needs.

    This is our first HR platform

    Chose BambooHR®
    We switch our clients from the other HRIS platforms to BambooHR, because they do everything better and have amazing customer support.

    Chose BambooHR®
    Less expensive than ADP and much more up to date and efficient than Heartland
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    At my previous employer, I evaluated over 20 HRIS platforms before choosing and implementing BambooHR® (in 2019). I love it! The continuous improvements are promising and I actually feel like product feedback is reviewed and, at times, implemented.

    With BambooHR®, it truly …

    Chose BambooHR®
    BambooHR® was able to provide excellent value for money when compared to the other options we looked at when we carried out a review of them. A previous member of the team had also used BambooHR® at another company and rated them highly which influenced our decision greatly. …

    Different companies and each proved to be beneficial for the particular company that had it implemented.

    Chose BambooHR®
    The platform for both employees and employer were way easier to use and navigate. Additionally, VensureHR generated many errors which we did not see with BambooHR.

    I think they are the worst

    We moved to BambooHR time tracking from ClickTime once BambooHR's functionality improved and we prefer to have all functions on the same platform.

    Chose BambooHR®
    I would say BambooHR is the best platform I have used and help setup so far
