    Considered Both Products
    BambooHR
    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®
    BambooHR is much easier to use than Paycom or Paylocity but has fewer bells and whistles. It is far more accurate than Paylocity and has a better user interface than Paycom.
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    BambooHR is much more robust and easy to use compared to Paycom. It was difficult navigating the Paycom portal and it didn't have close the number of features BambooHR had, and was more expensive.
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    BambooHR is the best, but unfortunately, it doesn't currently have an adequate payroll module for our needs.
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    I think BambooHR® overall is a superior product.
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    BambooHR offers a superior employee experience, especially when it comes to onboarding!
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    BambooHR is much more user friendly. What it lacks in technical/complexities it is working to improve.
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    We have BambooHR because of its great interface and user-friendly design. It meets our employees' needs as well as our employer's needs. We have integrations with some programs where Bonusly isn't able to cover.
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    I used to use that software but couldn't meet up my demand. But in BambooHR workforce management platform features are really amazing than that. Platforms, content and overall everything of BambooHR is work-worthy.
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    Other tools with a more unified platform (including a more mature payroll solution) have been much more robust in terms of their data and reporting capabilities. BambooHR, however, has the edge on having a flashier look that may be more appealing to some up-and-coming …
    Incentivized
    Chose BambooHR®
    I needed a system that was easy to use from an admin level as well as employee level. We run a pretty simple operation as we do not have shift diffs or multiple approval levels. Some of the systems reviewed were too much for us and, as a result, too expensive. BambooHR® fit our …
    Incentivized
    Paycom
    Chose Paycom
    BambooHR has a much more minimalistic UI but with many of the same features offered by Paycom. Paycom is much more all-inclusive of various features not offered by BambooHR but is not nearly as easy to navigate. Paycom's robust suite of features and tools/resources make it an …
    Incentivized
    Chose Paycom
    ADP Workflow, Paylocity, BambooHR, Worklio - Paycom has a superior feature set and reporting tools. Rippling, Gusto, PlanSource - Paycom is less preferred due to its overly complex feature set.
    Incentivized
    Chose Paycom
    Paycom stacks up well overall against other providers in the same realm. There are areas of improvement that other companies are handling better, but overall, they are very similar. Paycom could improve on two major components: intersystem communication and ATS. Betti, however, …
    Incentivized
    Chose Paycom
    I like Paycom's interface more than ADP
    Incentivized
    Chose Paycom
    Bamboo has more features for hiring and recruiting which right now we use ALL the time. ADP has a quick clock option.
    Incentivized
    Chose Paycom
    We were using BambooHR, Workable, and Lattice before switching to Paycom. All of them were great software, but we switched to Paycom to accommodate our anticipated growth and reduce the number of separate HR software our employees were using. Bamboo, Workable, and Lattice have …
    Incentivized
    Chose Paycom
    We ended up selecting Paycom as we thought it was the best match for our organization. We were looking at a few factors: service, communication, technology, functions/capabilities, reporting and of course financials. While Paycom wasn't the cheapest option, in fact, one of the …

    Chose Paycom
    ADP has similar problems. Implementation was extremely weak. Another good payroll package that tried to be more than payroll.
    Incentivized
    Chose Paycom
    The system itself is way more appeasing to the eye, which is nice for someone who works in it every day. Also, the functionality of the system just seems to make sense.
    Incentivized
    Chose Paycom
    I have used ADP Workforce Now and Bamboo HR and by far this one's the best.
    Incentivized
    Chose Paycom
    We used to use BambooHR, Paycom offered a more diverse.
    Incentivized
    Chose Paycom
    I've used BambooHR, which I loved, but they just didn't have a payroll side to it. I've used ADP, which I hate it, and wasn't interested in getting their HR side of it. We've used a product called Epicor, which it was mediocre at best. And those are the only products I'm …
