We tried to use it for employee evaluations and it failed us miserably.

Bamboo is a great way to see HR related announcements and data in one central place. For someone who likes details, this software is great.

Obviously you can contact their great customer service team but this usually isn’t needed thanks to its simplicity and great clean layout.

For organisations implementing their first HRIS this is one of the best choices in terms of cost, ease of implementation and customer support.

Bamboo has a great UI, easy to manage and learn. Makes being able to submit time-off requests super easy.

Bamboo is great and I think its really useful for a multinational company like ours.

I like that all the important documents I need are in the same place. I like that I can clearly see my benefits and earnings.

I liked most the impact it has on communication in my team, priceless.

Bamboo has great templates set up. Super easy to use and very intuitive.

I also like the job anniversary and birthday tracker. Helps us celebrate the good things in the office.

I have been onboarded to a new company for freelance through BambooHR and it was a seamless experience. Be it signing a contract or tracking my invoice, its just very useful.

This software has been so helpful throughout the pandemic. Easy to manage and update, very user friendly.

We've been with Bamboo about 2 years, and are satisfied with the product. The company is constantly deploying new features and their customer support are patient and client service driven.

Easy to integrate with other ATS & Payroll tools. Employee asset management is also fairly decent and does the job.

I like it, It's a nice system, and it does its job well. I would like to test out the ATS integrations further.

We had a terrible experience with the payroll feature. In particular, with the time keeping piece.

This is just a minor inconvenience though and ensures that mistakes are less likely.

My company is growing rapidly, so it’s nice to search and see a photo to their name and title.

Horrible interface, difficult to use. Also, getting any information about the candidate was difficult to find.

BambooHR has a nice interface to publish job opportunities, other than its native features of HR/team management.

Overall is a good piece of software. I wish they would invest in the user experience.

The dashboard can be confusing at times and can be hard to find your exact document.

I cannot see the total of vacation days that I have in a year, only the ones that have accumulated until the current moment, which is a horrible way of ovserseeing my leave.

The people and how they cant help with any misunderstandings but instead cancel your account and destroy the company that you worked so hard on. Garbage un hearted people.

We enjoy the ease of use and how it makes the process from applicant to employee seamless.

Customer support is superior and they actually implement good suggestions from their clients.

With bambooHR you can keep the company running without lost a lot of money on hiring the HR Profession or personnel.

Great experience with a fast and reliable tool. Wonderful visibility tool for growing teams.

I believe it is very user-friendly and has a great design. I'm not an administrator but some reports are shared to me and they are very clear and informative.

May take a lost of space when including documents.

You can integrate your email and sync your calendar to see who's off from your company. The user experience is very pleasant and it is very easy to navigate through the platform.

Bamboohr customer support has a very acceptable response speed, as well as being very friendly at all times. It is the best services.

Overall my experience with BambooHR was positive, it handled time tracking and benefits as a good system should.

It is easy to use, intuitive, and responsive. It has many great features that allow it to be quite flexible.

Sometimes features can get lost because there are so many so it needs some time before running with it.

Fantastic recruitment tool for entry level positions in multiple locations.

User Friendly and good functionality. The UI is very user friendly and the operations are very easy.

Customer account management and customer support are top-notch. From the Hiring Manager's perspective, it's perfect.

The best part about using SmartRecruiters is that it had a smooth layout that was appealing to use. My team always had great customer service, it was very user-friendly.

The software is user friendly, is extremely candidate driven, and allows for all necessary features.

No one at SmartRecruiters bothered informing their customers. No one at SmartRecruiters or Indeed wants to fix this issue.

It's also fantastic that I can send them messages through the platform and keep a record of their responses that I can access on the site itself.

The design is also great and implementation was fairly quick. As long as your Recruiting Team stays on top of it, it should be updated with the most recent job openings.

I like the hiring manager self-service and visibility the system offers. I also appreciate the marketplace and integrations for scheduling and more.

I was very happy with SmartRecruiters. When I have roles to fill on my team, I'm eager to use it more.

It was easy to set up and to post once and distribute these postings to the job aggregators we chose. The support team was very friendly and trained us.

Good job board for those who want a free hosting site.

I have yet to get one candidate through their system. Also, the customer representatives that helped us when we were purchasing the software are all of a sudden nowhere to be found once you pay them.

Great program for recruiting the perfect candidate for your company.

We recently transitioned into a different recruiting software due to an acquisition, but our team still continues to rave about how awesome SmartRecruiters was to use.

We have had problems where mails were not received by candidates, if this was sent from the system directly, but the support team fixed these errors.

Great calendar integration (we have gmail). Great customer success team.

I love the queue where I can easily see who is applying for our available positions and where they are in the process.

They have a great customer support. The system functionality is broad and add value to HR.

The candidate experience has vastly improved due to social integration and mobile friendly use.

Ability to integrate with Docusign, making it easier for candidates to sign and complete offer letters.

Easily pushes job to external job postings sites and lets you track where your hires come from. Also, great mobile platform and great price as well for what you get.

It is an excellent value for the price (free). Allows you to post jobs, candidates can apply online and you can send and receive emails in the system.

Good interface, it's free, but better to pay some sum of money and get at least something than pay nothing and get nothing.

Also the cost per hire becomes more and more attractive even though many websites we publish job ads are not yet integrated.

This system is super simple, easy to navigate and your best bet for FREE. Provides great candidate flow.

Overall, a good investment if you’re looking for an ATS that is easy to use and deploy.

Reliable and ease of use stands at the top. Job boards are very effective and we get quality resume.

It was better than tracking applicants yourself. Appreciated the 'tag' feature (similar to facebook).
