CommonOffice - better than Workday & ADP, much cheaper

From demos to implementation to customer service, we have kept interacting with the same person / people, so it's easy to communicate and make sure we get what we need. I've been very impressed with their response times, too.

Pros:

The team does all the work for you in a very short amount of time, with customization and great customer service. And the price was cheaper than anything out there. And the workflows are just like Workday but much easier to set up!

Cons:

Can't think of anything. Our people love it, and it's really easy to use.

Reasons for choosing CommonOffice HRIS

Cheaper, faster to set up, just as customizable, great interface, friendly staff, it had the complete suite of HR products.

Reasons for switching to CommonOffice HRIS

They weren't working, and we had 100 spreadsheets instead of a nice clean database

Great HR Tool

CommonOffice has some of the best customer service available. Timely with return calls and emails. Quick to fix problems, and often identify items that may be an issue for future use before user does. This HRIS system does exactly what we need it to do for our company.

Pros:

It is easy to set up users, and has plenty of areas to add additional information if you would like. The availability to customize the information that fits my company is great as well. Every company I different and it nice to have a software that can be more flexible.

Cons:

Sometimes knowing which screen to go to for different information can be a hassle, but overall not bad enough to deter me from use.

Pros:

The CommonOffice support team were friendly, efficient and had excellent problem-solving skills. They deliver!

Cons:

Less a complaint and more so an adaptation, timecards reflect hours worked with notes on and absenteeism. It would be handy to have a second row reflect PTO and TO.

Reasons for choosing CommonOffice HRIS

CommonOffice presented the most user-friendly platform with the most customizable fields. It was a no-brainer.

Overall we are pleased with what the software does for us and it is fairly priced. Prior to moving to this system several years ago, we were still using paper time off requests, and excel spreadsheets to track time off.

Functionality

Pros:

We use the software for tracking time off and have users that are very mobile. It is quick and easy for our users to login and schedule from a pc, tablet, or mobile phone.

Cons:

From an administrator's point of view, it could be more user friendly. When updating items on multiple individuals, the screens do not maintain the sorting, or allow you to easily move to the next individual.

Easy PTO Tracking

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

It's very easy to use and has been extremely customizable. It's a simple interface that makes it easy for employees and admins alike. The team at CommonOffice has been super helpful every time we have a change in policy to help us work out the best way to implement the changes in our PTO tracking. Sometimes, it even involves custom projects which are still affordable and efficient. You can't beat the price.

Cons:

It isn't the most attractive interface in comparison to other PTO trackers, it's very basic. But that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Great step for our company.

Customer Service and response time has been great. The implementation has been a bit clunky at times, as our team hasn't always understood what common office does and Common Office hasn't always grasped what we are looking for. That said, they continually provide great customer service and keep working with us to satisfy our needs. The value for the dollar is definitely a win for our organization.

Ratings Breakdown

Functionality

Pros:

Lots of functionality. The electronic signatures have been a game changer. The ATS is a perfectly scaled tool for our application. It is an entry level HRIS that brought stability and consistency to our HR administration and has been worth every penny.

Cons:

It does everything they say it can, but there are a few things that are more complex that we wish it could do. Overall, it is really good entry level HRIS, but if you are trying to support more complex processes (such as multiple level investigations or complex performance management metrics), you do run into limitations. I am optimistic that we will learn how to use the system smarter and Common Office will continue with their great customer service, and we might be able to clear some of our hurdles in the next 12 months.

Reasons for choosing CommonOffice HRIS

It had all the functionality we needed for the best price.
