Reporting functions are easy to operate and offer valuable management information. The platform is popular with our employees and is widely used to capture and organise leave requests.

Could be difficult to learn if not coming from someone who doesn't use computers.

Kudos feature allows you to give kudos to your colleagues with a leaderboard showing who's been awarded the most kudos (great for staff moral).

The ability to easily book holiday due to being able to see when the rest of the team are away is really useful.

No ‘variable hours’ recording function that allows you to enter hours worked on an hourly, weekly or monthly basis.

The cost is within budge. The system is easy to us for my team and for me and it has taken days of my life through the simple administration.

It is a good basic tool for Employee records, but getting data back out can be cumbersome.

It is very easy to navigate round, it is also very simple to book holidays.

Support is friendly and efficient and the cost is very attractive. I can't say enough positive things about breathehr.

It is quite dull to look at and use, it feels like a program from about 7-8 years ago despite actually being a very modern package.

For a small monthly payment, I now have the perfect system for my needs. I have been very impressed with the product and the technical support.

With the software being cloud based it is nice that it can easily be accessed on any device from anywhere.

Support staff is great- very helpful, easy to get a hold of. Program integrates well with our other databases.

I also find it frustrating that the recruitment section does not seem to tell you an overview of how to use it, but you almost have to post something to work it out.

Its UI is easy to use and the featureset is constantly expanding. Their support team is fabulous and answers our minimal questions very fast and with ease.

Really easy to use - great platform. Would recommend for a smaller scale business and scale up within breathe as your business scales.

Good integration with third party systems like Rota Cloud and Safety Cloud. Very good support including self service for managers and staff.

Happy with how simple it is to use and a big improvement over the platform we used before (Sage).

I found it difficult to access documents that were uploaded to it for me to see as I couldnt find the correct area from my profile.

Without a doubt, the best part about BreatheHR is its simplicity. For the user, the web interface is clear with all features signposted in the expected places with not an ounce of bloatware in sight.

Overall very positive and has greatly improved efficiencies within our organisation.

There is a new recruitment module which I believe is a great addition.

Great central location for employee policies/holidays etc.

It's a very useful software which helps for the HR management and leave tracking purposes. Not only that it can be used for personal goal setting and training activities too.

Smooth, minimal learn time, east to integrate systems with, easy to manage staff through it.

There is no drag and drop functionality, integration with Office 365 or CRM and data cannot be exported en masses.

Our users are love being able to submit their requests any time from any device. BreatheHR Support are amazing.

Best GUI with almost functionality and feature. You can see all your details and generate token.

Keka for a bad experience for our company. Would not recommend it to anyone.

It is overall a very good experience and I find it very user friendly.

Overall I satisfied with Keka because everything covers in one plateform.

Keka covered so much ground in Human resource - both recruitment and generalist, they're top 99% for response rate and usability. And the name - well deserved and justified.

There are no such cons from my usage so far. Only thing is that if I forget to stop my time tracking by mistake, then I cannot off it by my mobile phone app.

The worst software and even worse customer care.

It really improves the employee experiences. I love the remote login feature most.

The only thing I didn't like in keka is, it's not working and I'm facing the problem at least once a week.

So many options for compression. It's nice to go into the advanced settings and customize nearly every aspect of compression.

And if you contact the customer service for help, they don't know how to help you.

This is very simple to use. Tax calculator is superb.

Recruitment - The two problems I face with Keka hire is not having the option of sending trigger emails which are customized for each stages of the hiring process.

Keka is Good and Affordable Software for HR activities.

I first of all found the UI of software very clumsy, it is very clear no doubt , but it is very populated and use of animal characters in UI like elephant in leave management seems very childish.

With a very competitive price range, it gives a great deal of features to work with. Here are few things I like about Keka.

Overall experience is awesome to use it. Every organization can use this to manage their employee data and other management tools by just one portal.

We depend on it almost every day. Oh, and also, their isopod logo/icon is pretty great too.

Gives breakdown and calculation logic behind tax calculation. Easy interface to input investment declarations.

Can be integrated with other 3rd party software to sync logs of the time.

Finally a product which kept itself apart from boring, complex stereotypes.

Keka is a must use HR software for every company. The payroll system in it is amazing as tax deductions and calculations have been made easy.

Customization is good; it allows you to meet your company's and its users' needs. In this case, KEKA provides software we can customize to fit our current needs.

Love the way their software resolve lot of our pen and paper work and main delight was working with their support team, They had helped me a lot while migrating to cloud payroll.

Keka has some features missing such as workflow management system and files management system.

KEKA - the simple and easy to use HRMS software.

My overall experience with Keka is amazing, very easy to use and has a lot of features to make day-to-day activities a lot easier, and reduces the efforts to mail HR for small inquiries.

Their support team helps you whenever you need them.

Ease of use, providing the required features in a simple and user friendly UX.

Our cloud storage at box.com is limited to files under 5gb. Because we often have InDesign source files larger than this, we have to split the archives in order to store them in the cloud.

No self serve set up and onboarding is extremely time consuming. Further there's no way to use parts of the product before wider rollout.

I am pleased with my overall experience with Keka. It is easy to use and stay connected with my team members.

No way to use a subset of features. Onboarding requires filling 25 sheets even if you are looking to use a subset of features.

Leave management is awesome. The tax and payroll module is also nice and integration with clear tax is great.

Keka makes this super easy and is very reliable with great 7zip compression among other multi-part file splitting formats.

Sometimes our employees find it difficult to navigate through the payroll information.

Very easy to navigate, set up. Any issues are solved instantly.

One stop for all the company management stuff.

The Tax Deduction section is a bit complicated but the advantages of Keka overcome this dislike of mine.
