We stopped keeping HR in a shared drive

Employees look up their own time off balance, their own documents and their own handbook instead of emailing me. I reckon that removed thirty or forty interruptions a month, and each one used to break whatever I was doing.

Custom reporting means exporting to a spreadsheet

Turnover reporting our board asked for

Headcount and turnover reporting comes out of the box. Our board asked for twelve month attrition by department and I had it in about four minutes rather than the day it used to take.

Pros

Employee self service that genuinely reduces HR interruptions

Cons

Payroll is a separate product and US only

Onboarding gave me a week back per hire

The employee record is the quiet win. Compensation history, reviews, documents, emergency contacts and certifications in one place with real permissions. We were running that across a shared drive and a spreadsheet and I did not appreciate the risk until it was fixed.

Reporting past the standard set is painful

The built in reports are good and anything custom means exporting to a spreadsheet. I wanted headcount cost by department by month and could not build it. For a product at this price point that gap is frustrating.

Managers see their own team and cannot see compensation for anyone else. Getting that permissions model right is why HR was willing to put real data in it.

Time off arguments simply ended

Accrual and carryover rules match our policy exactly, including the cap, and the calendar shows the whole team. The arguments about who booked what and how many days are left are gone. That was worth the subscription on its own.

Pre sale the responses were immediate. Post sale it is a ticket and a day or two, and the first answer is usually a help article. Nothing has been urgent yet, which is the only reason I am not angrier about it.

Great at core HR, thin at the edges

Core HR, onboarding and time off are excellent. Performance is adequate next to a purpose built tool, and applicant tracking is fine rather than a reason to buy. Buy it for the core and treat the rest as a bonus.
