The Complete HR Management Package

HR Partner is much better than the previous HR software we used. Switching to HR Partner was the best decision we could have made, having all employee information in a glance has made our life and work easier.

PROS

HR Partner has all the information we need about every employee, it is easy to use, it allows us to have different leave policies and holidays depending on the location of our staff, so we can personalize it according to our needs. The note system is great to keep a record of every detail we need to review in the future. It is flexible and intuitive and it has a lot of extra options other systems don’t have like recruitment and a document library where all training documents or manuals can be uploaded. Overall is a very complete system that covers every employee aspect we need.

CONS

The only issue I have is with the automatic leave accruals, I’m using the Upfront option where the employee will be allocated the entire default allowance at the start of the employment and every anniversary thereafter but I wish there was an option here where you can start the allowance on a certain date and not on the anniversary date.

Reason for choosing HR Partner

It provided by far the most value for the price.

Vendor Response

Hi Lonnie, thanks so much for your review. It's great to hear that HR Partner is helping you keep your HR records much more organized. Also, I wanted to let you know that we do have the ability to have leave allocated on a certain date that you can define. If you haven't found this yet, please contact our support and we'll help you with this. All the best, Fiona

Wonderful!

HR partner has been an excellent software for our organisation. It has transformed how we manage and look after our employees. All the features are really useful and intuitive, and we have really enjoyed finding out what the system can do and how it can help with both our daily administrative tasks and wider strategy objectives. The system provides a great user experience for all staff as well, particularly when booking leave. We have had a fantastic onboarding process with [sensitive content hidden] who has been incredibly helpful and is always quick to assist us with our queries. The support team as well are brilliant and reliable and we would recommend this system to anyone who asks. The team behind HR Partner are always searching for ways to improve the software as well and listen to any feature requests we may have which is great. After searching for an HR system to use, we are very glad to have happened upon HR Partner!

PROS

The approach to being introduced to this product was great by the support team. It was really easy to book a demo and find out all of the information. The support team didn't push the sale on us (as we found other companies did), instead they just showed us what it could do and we went through the various features and discussed how it might be a good fit for our organisation. The implementation was really good as well and we felt supported throughout. It also has great integrations with payroll and recruitment softwares as well.

CONS

With any software there are a few things that can't be done however what we like about HR partner is that they always can find a way around this for you and if not can put through a feature request for you.

Reason for choosing HR Partner

A lot of these softwares have similar features and functions however HR partner felt much more tailored to a smaller organisation which we are and so felt more suitable (not to say that it isn't appropriate for larger organisations which it is as well!). As mentioned, we felt the demo session was great whereas a lot of the other softwares we looked into felt very much like a sales call and in cases quite pushy. Overall we really liked the look of HR partner as well and how it was very intuitive and user friendly.

Great HR Management System for Small-Medium Businesses

The customer service from HR partner is amazing. The team are very responsive to feedback and implementing improvement changes based on the user experience. It has been a pleasure working with [SENSITIVE CONTENT] over the past 11 months. They are fantastic and always give tailored advice to work with our business needs.

PROS

- Use of checklists and e-signatures modules for distributing policy/procedure information across our business as it allow's clear employee attestation.- Organisation chart at a glance- Ability for managers to track leave balances, education and training needs, add in important notes.- Adding reminders for tasks and expiry dates for training e.g. OH&S obligations

CONS

- It would be great to be able to have approval or action workflows attached to Forms so the person the form is submitted to can then action it e.g. Company Expense Form submitted to a direct manager to then approve or reject.- Performance management module is very new to this software so further improvements are required re: automation of scheduling so that the review is actually assigned to the employee , improving notifications to managers re: tasks they have to complete .- Performance review forms cannot be modified without losing data already entered against the form, so a new form needs to be created each time a small change is needed.

Vendor Response

Hey there Tobi! Wow! What a glowing review of our support team - thank you, it means a lot! We really appreciate you taking the time to post a review. It's great to hear all the things you love about the platform, but it's equally good for us to gain insight into those areas you feel could be improved. We fully take on board your suggestions and they've been added to the feature requests list. I would like to just pickup on a few though. First, it sounds like you may be using the Custom Forms module for expenses, rather than the Expense module itself. The Expense module allows you to build in very specific approval rules meaning claims can go straight to a person's manager and then potentially onto an Admin in Finance for example. We're sorry that changes to Form templates can cause them to break, though this will be the case with many form building tools out there. To help ease the frustration this may cause, you have the ability to create a duplicate of an existing form, so that you can just jump in and change what you need to change in the new version, rather than having to build the entire form from scratch. We'd be very happy to pickup either of these things on a call if you'd like, Tobi! Best, Cara

HR Partner helped us scale from 50 to 500 employees

PROS

Ease of use for our team to get started using it right away. Not to mention their customer support is top notch! They really care about their users.

CONS

Not quite there as an all in one HRIS and recruitment software when it comes to feature set. But they are improving on this all the time coming out with new features.

The applications looked exactly what we needed for our available budget.
