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.

Cost is a strong advantage it has other competitor Mircosoft.

The plugin is handy and are what makes it really rich although the cost of the plugins can start to add up if they are used they are good value.

Awesome document syncing for online collaboration. Superb permission management for critical security of confidential data.

The product works, and is great for startup companies that don't want to invest in something more powerful.

Confluence is not the most intuitive program and learning to properly navigate it took a while. I also dislike that it is possible for one corrupted page to crash a whole file.

Do almost anything with the documentation by just using the internet browser is really awesome. The integration with jira is pretty good.

Customer service is always available and is super helpful.

I dislike that Confluence gets a little confusing with multiple links for the same page (a long link and a short link), but it is hard to differentiate.

You also need to make sure that obsolete information is cleaned or marked obsolete, otherwise documentation rot can make information difficult to find.

Great editor tools and easy to make my pages look content rich and informative. Good search and folder structure is great for organizing content.

Great product for sharing software creation and communications. I really enjoyed the workflow and ability to communicate with several developers.

Confluence syntax is confusing for new users, its preview function is not working well when having micro or embed script.

I integrate it with jira to show any kind of  project progress. The version control feature on confluence is excellent and the fact that multiple people can edit a page at the same time is awesome.

It happened to our team and it made using Confluence unpleasant and annoying.

Like most about it easy way to document the pages. And best way to store the important document required for business purpose.

I think that Confluene is very useful and worth the time and investment.

The one thing i dislike about it is when there are topics to click on and it jumps to that supposed topic but there's no information there. I'd guess the editor was not able to remove that section.

It features a exuberant number of plugins to construct a document , so many are advances and have to learn. One important plugin that i use is the Architecture diagram building editor.

Customer support is very easily accessible and quick resolution. The deplyomnet is also easy with option of cloud server and in-house server deployemnt.

Which is great for customer support and of course technical documentation. Did I mention that you can create as many different wikis as you like.

Confuence is very easy to use and makes documentation fun and collaboration with others a breeze. It helps us organize and document our work, from meeting notes to operational documentation.

Confluence cloud allows to make the documentation space more scalable. The solution is so popular it can be integrated with most of the solutions.

I also love the version control as that becomes increasingly important as the number of contributors or complexity of the page goes up.

I have had an overall good experience with Confluence and it is easy to create and share documents. If you are using JIRA already I would recommend this.

Confluence is a project management solution that enables organizations to create, collaborate, organize and review project documents. The system offers both cloud-based and on-premise deployment.


Confluence’s editor feature allows employees to create content such as meeting notes, product requirements and research reports. The solution enables managers to review and share feedback in documents themselves.


Confluence’s knowledge management module provides users with a centralized repository to access and search relevant content according to project requirements. The system lets managers restrict access to confidential data and collaborate within closed groups. Users can publish, organize and access company information in a central location.  


Confluence's task management feature allows managers to delegate, monitor and track changes to tasks assigned to each employee. The task management feature updates managers with status on tasks that are completed, impending, or overdue. The software integrates with JIRA to enable project transparency.
