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.

Peace of mind

Keeping up to date with any employment law changes is easy as all updates are explained and updates.

PROS

As a small business owner and one that has to wear many hats in the day to day running of the business this software is invaluable. For a small investment in time once a month it is easy to remain on top of all contract obligations. Support is great and all communication is relevant to our business. I would recommend the product.

CONS

Perhaps an electronic acknowledgement of contracts sent to employees feature. This would save printing and follow up of each employee.

Creating contracts for a small business.

An issue arose at work. It was great to able to contact [SENSITIVE CONTENT] in Bright Contracts to get advice and she put me on the right track.

PROS

I found it easy to use. I can edit it to my own needs. It includes all the up to date legislation for employment. The back up support is very helpful. I found [SENSITIVE CONTENT] easy to contact and her advice was very useful.

CONS

I was a little confused at the start between the handbook and the contract. But I soon got the hang of it.

Reasons for switching to Bright Contracts

They were too expensive. When a problem arose I would have to pay more money for them to represent me. Despite them having me the advice I the first place.

Bright Contracts Review

The support desk at Bright Contracts, they are very responsive, informed and professional. I would have no hesitation recommending them to a peer seeking to create, maintain and change contracts of employment.

PROS

The ease of use, flexibility and up to date legislation alerting us to amend contracts of employment.

CONS

There really is very little, it can be a bit tricky when you are trying to insert some additional company specific information and the format is sometimes misaligned but the content is excellent.

PROS

The software is very user friendly and enabled the stress-free creation of contracts and handbooks. Staff support are professional, personable with up-to-date knowledge. Import of Employee data took seconds.

CONS

The ability to edit the handbook's template content was instrumental in tailoring to our company's needs. Would like this feature in the contract of employment template content.

Legal and Relevant Contracts At Touch of A Button

This system covers all events that might effect our business. Even Covid. We are not a large enough company to employ an HR Generalist. This programme gives us complete confidence that we are following the legal guidelines for employment paperwork.

PROS

It is very easy to import new employees into this software and get started with their contract in seconds.

CONS

If I copy one contract to another similar employee, it would be nice if everything I need to look at to change in the new contract was highlighted. It is too easy to leave other employees start date etc.

This product is so user friendly and gives us confidence that we are creating up to date employee contracts and handbooks without the need to constantly check for any new legislation as the software does that automatically. We have recommended this software package to numerous customers and suppliers over the last few years.

CONS

We are very happy with the current software and have yet to find any issues with it.

PROS

Very easy to write and manage contracts for our staff. Latest rules and regulations are automatically implemented which is great, and the additional elements are incredibly useful.

CONS

As a seasonal employer, I would like to be able to import a spreadsheet file to import the contract elements. I already import employees from brightpay csv, but importing contract elements would help hugely.

Software will make sure your contracts are always legally binding inline with current employment laws

Software is half price when bought together with BrightPay Payroll.

PROS

Never again will one have to worry about your contracts being out of date. Software helps make sure your contracts are legal and provide all the necessary jargon to ensure they are fully compliant.

CONS

It will take a while to learn how to use the software. There are limited video tutorials, but this okay as customer service is very easily at hand to provide one-to-one advice over the phone.

I love the fact that Bright Contracts send you an update when there is a change in legislation - this makes it so easy to update the employee handbook and not be concerned about lapsed compliance. It is also great to use contract templates when you take on new employees.
