My experience

We have been dealing with some bullying and when I asked for help I got a detailed response and templates for letters and posters. 5 star assistance

PROS

The holiday and absence section are so impressive. We have found the staff and helpline are very informative and helpful. They make some hard jobs easier

CONS

My only problem is that when doing rotas they are weekly where as I would need a rota that can go from the 1st to the 31st of the month.

Reason for choosing Bright Contracts

The company was recommended so we had a meeting and signed with you.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your review, Elaine. It's great to hear that you received 5-star assistance on your Bright Contracts queries.

Contracts for a fraction of the price

It's a great add on piece of software for my payroll bureauy.

PROS

It allows me to provide contracts for my payroll clients at a fraction of the price that a HR professional would charge. It has quite a few customisable options, and means that I can offer added services to my clients and generate extra revenue.

CONS

The section about giving notice for absences is worded a bit strangely and sometimes I have to manually edit this with a pdf to Word editor which is a bit annoying. The option to manually edit would be good, or to export in a Word document where I could edit it. Sometimes importing employees doesn't work and it crashes the software. Being able to import companies would also be good.

A good way to keep track of compliance

PROS

As our company contracts can be very similar to each others Bright Contract allows us to repeat the same type of contract only changing small parts if needed. The fact that the system alerts us if a new policy might need to be integrated in the handbook is one of the best feature of this software. Bright Contract helps us to stay compliant at all times. Overall a very good software that I would recommend.

CONS

The system does not allow to archive former employees but one has to delete the contract from their system if they don't want to have a long list of employees. Sometimes the system needs to be rebooted a couple of time before working correctly i.e. not all contracts appear or the handbook don't show fully. Last thing, if the alert to new policy for the handbook is very appreciated and allows us to stay up to date with compliance, it is not always straight forward in the presentation of the system that there is a update. It would be great also to include an email notification as one does not always to logon onto the system.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your review, Virginie. Also, thank you for your detailed feedback. It is greatly appreciated.
