Time and cost savings across a range of areas in the payroll. Also far improved staff communication, staff now under their pay and holiday far better than ever before.

We have used PARiM to manage our staff, their shifts and absences in our Retail group for several years now. PARiM made it quick and easy to get started and schedule the staff. With its sortable, fast, unlimited database we can manage our flexible staff pool in seconds. It makes managing staff across several locations much quicker and simpler and gives me an overall view of staffing costs and levels Using the Apps, staff can see their current, past and future shifts as well as their gross pay per shift so we receive far fewer pay and holiday queries.

Its not free software! Just needs integration with a payroll software to make it perfect. However its great value for money with excellent support from the PARiM team.

Fantastic!

The Schedule, people management and pay and charge has drastically reduced our work load and ensured we are more productive as a team. Its enabled us to concentrate on more important aspects of our job and saved us valuable time and money

The time clock needs to be more accurate in the pay and charge section.

Almost comically bad- we've essentially been told that the experience we've had as customers is incorrect... despite it being our experience!

When the product was sold to us we were satisfied that it could do everything we needed it to, it was only later on that we realised this is not the case! (unless you want to spend a lot of money!). This is the review I wish we're read before moving to Parim.

We found a flaw in user permissions that we highlighted to Parim. They used this as an opportunity to increase their costs and tie us in. We're an incredibly unhappy customer and they couldn't care less!

PARiM has really streamlined our scheduling and made our life much easier. There are still a few tweaks that need to be made to make the program even better, and I can't wait for those to come out!

I love the simplicity and ease. The system is extremely easy to read and understand, minimal training is required since it is so straightforward and simple.

As far as the financial side of things, I do tend to get frustrated with the inability to customize expenses. We NEVER pay the same amount as we bill for an expense. When there is mileage or a bonus that needs to be paid out to our employee, we bill a higher amount to our clients but there is not an option to bill, not pay. I have to keep a side list of notes for which clients need to be charged so I can manually create the expense on their invoice. There should be an option for payable expenses, and billable expenses.I also get frustrated that notes are shared across all shifts within the same group. A few weeks ago I reported an issue where 3 of our caregivers worked the exact same shift at the exact same facility. The notes entered into the different shifts were automatically shared between all 3 caregivers. We had offered one caregiver a higher rate, the note was added into the shift for payroll purposes, but the note was automatically added into all 3 shifts. For another one of the caregivers, our scheduler spoke with the facility over the phone and had approved for us to bill a higher rate for that 1 caregiver. Since the notes were shared across all 3 shifts, there was no way to find out which caregiver it was actually approved for. #1- there should be an option for notes about a shift to be private, not shared with the caregiver at all. #2- notes entered for one shift, should not transfer into another as it only applies to the shift the note was entered

We cannot imagine operating without PARIM. The thought of it sends shivers down our spine.

When shopping for workforce management systems, PARIM's market competition all looked too system and tech orientated. When choosing the system, we wanted a system that welcomes the user in, had friendly approachable functionalities whilst delivering real results. PARIM's continual drive for improvements that upgrade not only ours but the system used by multiple companies works so well. It means that we benefit from the feedback and inspiration of likeminded PARIM customers.

At times updates interrupt current operating methods within the system. These are often worked around quickly however.
