Good For Talent Engagement Solutions

Integrated with other HCM software, worked on the talent engagement, outcome was satisfying.

PROS

Interface looks good and appealing when you adapt to it. Shows history of anything you need and creates quick graphs in real-time.

CONS

Not very easy to use at the beginning, lots of features that we do not use regularly. Need to keep simple.

Great software for HR and employees

Overall, it is a great platform for managing our time-off and payroll. I love that I can see how much of my pay is going towards taxes, and all the different breakouts. I would recommend it to companies looking for HR platforms.

PROS

I really like the functionality for signing up for courses/lessons that we have to do as a company. It's super easy for me to register for classes on Criterion, and it syncs to my calendar. I also really like the time management aspect of it, where I can see how many PTO day's I have left in a year.

CONS

I feel as though the UI is a bit dated - it looks a bit old, but that could be something we can change on our end.

Buyer Beware!

PROS

It is easy to see an employee's history. The time clock functionality is definitely a plus. Processing payrolls are streamlined with minimal data input. The re-hiring feature is very beneficial.

CONS

There is a rounding issue with reports. The actual amount paid to employees' do not match reports. Very difficult to get issues resolved timely, if ever resolved. The system does not have the capability to create files to upload for state W-2 reporting (even though we were told that would not be a problem before purchasing). Many times it has taken up to 45 minutes to log into the system. It is difficult to get reports that meet certain needs for reporting benefits. End up using several reports to consolidate into one for the required reporting information. Issues with employees that live is one state and work in another state.

Reason for choosing Criterion HCM

Based on the demo and information given to us, it seemed like the best fit for our organization. The sales team did not provide accurate information.

Reasons for switching to Criterion HCM

Sage Abra was end of life. We didn't have a choice but to change payroll software.

Criterion for nation-wide construction company

We eliminated double entry, have saved money and storage on saving personnel files and are able to customize access to many people to use the system as it works best for them while maintaining security.

PROS

Easy to use and to be trained on. Everything filters into the appropriate to eliminate double entry

CONS

Employee history could include more information for companies who have employees who come and go multiple times.

Good

PROS

It is truly an HR software built with HR end users in mind. The fact that positions are separate and allow you to track FTEs is logical versus some that I previewed that make simple things like EEO codes driven by the employee record versus the position record.

CONS

Flexible report writing features, or lack thereof. Getting data back out of the system in the form of reports is not user friendly.

ESS Review

PROS

I really appreciate the support that is provided. They are very quick to respond to any problem that I have and also to communicate where they are in the process. What I like best about the product is the ease of looking up information on an employee. Being able to see their history at my fingertips is awesome.

CONS

It runs a little slow sometimes, but there is really nothing I don't like.

PROS

I always get fast and great help from the customer service department. The system is easy to use.

I wish I could add fields on my own. It seems that I can re-label fields but not add them on my own.

software rrhh bastante resolutivo

PROS

Lo que mas me ha gustado de este software es el poder buscar información de los empleados y tan sumamente rápido junto con el proceso de las nominas, la verdad es que evita muchísimo trabajo siendo gratamente eficaz.

CONS

No tengo nada malo que decir porque de momento las veces que lo he utilizado me ha resultado muy eficaz, tal vez lo único que podría decir es que es bastante lento a la hora de iniciar.
