Great HR Tool
Great Service, Lots of Documents and Training Courses available. The News and Legislation module is very helpful.
PROSI love that the training courses are interactive. It helps the employees to be in engaged in the course.
CONSSometimes it's hard to find what I want as there are many documents, BUT when I look through all the documents I come across something that I know I will need in the future and I add it to the library so I do not need to look for it again.
Reason for choosing HRdownloads
I have been using HRdownloads since 2005 and have used it at every employer I have worked at. As a single HR person in an organization, its a great toll to be utilized.

Extremely Easy to Use
The online training and new reminder function is great! It's easy to set-up and send out to your employees.
CONSI wish there were other options for the billing, I use the training but not the fundamentals as much. I would prefer an option for a 6 month package.

Review of HR Downloads
Really enjoy it and the customer service is excellent!
PROSEasy to use and understand almost all parts. Does give financial assistance to non-profit organizations.
CONSGetting the reports can be confusing sometimes. Would prefer to be able to edit each section of employee file rather then the one only at the top of the page.
Reason for choosing HRdownloads
From my knowledge this was the best price for the content we needed.
Vendor Response
Our customer service team is pleased to know you are so happy with their service! And we appreciate your feedback: your suggestions have been registered and sent to our product team. Thank you for choosing HRdownloads, Amber!

Extremely valuable for organizations with a small HR team
Outstanding. I had no idea how easy the system is to use. The customer service and advice is outstanding. They have truly captured the market by offering HR services to small to mid size companies. What a great idea and I love the system is Canadian as well. HR Downloads is worth the cost and we are extremely happy with the product. I would highly recommend this product and service.
PROSHR Downloads is a true HR platform that addresses and provides information in a number of HR Categories such as: 1. Strategy 2. Employee engagement 3. Employee and Labour relations 4. Total compensation 5. Workplace Safety 6. Labour Laws 7. Learning and Development 8. Information for the HR Director For small to medium sized organizations the variety of online learning programs is a true time and cost saver. I find HR Downloads is priced fairly and the product offerings don't compare. As well the HR Advisors are extremely helpful and return your call quickly. Overall, I have been extremely impressed with HR Downloads and would highly recommend the product.
CONSThe survey - it isn't as easy to use as survey monkey.

Excellent, worth while, and rewarding.
PROSThe customer service at HR Downloads is outstanding, the quickness of daily customer support given when facing a smaller problem really helps when our employees have specific time scheduled to their training and we can get the problem solved with them that same day. I am often explained the WHY of the problem as well. Which helps build great communication and realistic expectationd between I, the administrator, and the HR Downloads employee.
CONSAs we are now in the new updated Beta version, I feel as though I am still having trouble deciphering where certain items are.

I am tackling our office Manual at the moment. I am able to access the software anytime, anywhere which also helps me stay on target and not giving up my family time.
PROSWow, where do I begin....this software in my opinion is fantastic. Staying Current is the key in this fast paced country. Safes me a lot of time when I need to research any policies...it just a click of a button. Great tool to have when you want create your own policy manual and keep nice and tidy with any misunderstandings(employee). HRdownloads is having an HR in the office without the added salary.
CONSNot understanding the capability and power of this software.

HR Downloads Review
Overall, we have found it very helpful to have access to HR Downloads. We do not have an HR expert on our small team so it is helpful to have the service.
PROSI like how easy it is to use and how quickly i can chat with customer support.
CONSI find that at times I am receiving different support/information from the HR consultants which can sometimes be confusing when dealing with the same issue.

Great Resource
I have had no issues using HR Downloads as a training resource and am able to easily register new employees and assign tasks.
PROSHR Downloads has a lot of great resources for training and development of employees, as well as HR advice and information. The training modules themselves are also very informative and the HR Toolbox has a lot of great tools for the workplace.
CONSI find the bundling feature a little hard to maneuver and understand. It doesn't really work for me, but it's not really that necessary.
