Senior HR Advisor Warehousing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Always Pick Cezanne!" April 11, 2025 5.0 I love Cezanne, overall they think outside the box with things, take onboard all suggestions and respond so quickly whenever you have an issue or problem you can't solve(normally user error on my end). We have a new account manager now, but our account manager was wonderful and will always keep us up to date with anything we need to know Pros The ability to personalise and utilise different sections of the system and add them on if we find we need the additional modules. The LMS alongside this also looks fabulous and I can't wait for us to be able to sign up. It's a 1 stop shop for everything. Cons The searches section, I would like to be able to customise my searches in any way I want too. Review Source YY Yuki Y. HR Advisor Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Honest Review" April 11, 2025 4.0 CezanneHR has helped to reduce the HR admin work significantly. There are so many helpful processed and features, such as onboarding checklists, sending reminders in document tracking, performance review forms and many more. Once you get used to the system our processes are better streamlined. The implementation specialists are amazing! \[sensitive content hidden\] always ensures she fully understands how we as a company have used Cezanne to work for us and she always thinks of everything. Pros My favorite modules of Cezanne are the Pulse Surveys & Onboarding. Cons The only thing I would say they could improve on, is having a helpline number to be able to help with queries straight away. Switched from [Breathe](https://www.capterra.com/p/126547/BreatheHr/) We needed a system that could cope with the different countries we have employees in, and that could cope with the different leave plans etc. Review Source JB Jayne B. HR Director Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Flexible and scalable HR System" April 11, 2025 4.0 We have had Cezanne since 2018. We have teams in UK, Lithuania, Netherlands and Scandinavia and all our employees are within Cezanne. This makes it easy for us to have the information at our finger tips. We have grown considerably since implementing Cezanne and it has grown with us. The development of the system is continuous and the support team are very supportive of our needs and will work with us to find the best solution. Pros We like the fact that Cezanne can be set up and designed in a bespoke way, so that it supports how your business is set up. we also like the fact that we have used the system to automate a lot of manual processes such as our appraisal, exit interviews, probationary reviews etc. Cons The reporting. Its doesn't have the best reporting capabilities, but the good thing is that it is always improving. Reporting in HR is critical, so this is the one area I would like to see more improvements in.

Review Source EB Ellie B. People and Culture Manager Machinery Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A great branded HRIS solution " April 11, 2025 4.0 I enjoy Cezanne overall, and really appreciate the support of our implementation team, \[sensitive content hidden\] - that's a big part of the experience for me. There are definitely things that could be improved, based on experience of using other HRIS over time, but hopefully this feedback can continue to be worked on over time. I think we are yet to feel the full benefit of it, as we are still building and optimising, but would like to think in 12 months, this would be significant. Pros The bespoke options, being able to make it on-brand and represent our business. The overall core people module. The dashboards and ease of changing these regularly (although would love it if moving widgets around was easier and more flexible). I love that it has an app, but would also love to see the app developed to match the desktop experience, in terms of branding and functionality. Cons The process flows/notifications and the complexities around this, even more so when linked to forms. I dislike that this feels like a onerous task every time it needs doing, and makes me avoid using Cezanne for this purpose. it would be great if it could be streamlined.

Review Source Response from Cezanne HR April 17, 2025 Thank you for sharing such a thorough review, Ellie!

Technology Lead Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good option for a People/HR Platform." April 11, 2025 4.0 My overall experience has been great. The account manager is good, and the team in general are really nice. Pros It's a simple but effective platform for managing our People operations. The support is responsive, and the platform uptime is excellent. They are building out different integrations with different systems, and their "recent" managed payroll service is making a difference for us. Great system. Cons My only issue is that the customisation options are fixed, but that's with most cloud-based systems and requesting feature changes, which is a simple process that will take a while to implement.

The pricing tiers fit what we wanted to do, and they accepted our colour branding requirements and added them to the system. Review Source CC Catherine C. HR Manager Food & Beverages Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Broderick Group Ltd" April 14, 2025 5.0 Cezanne have provided a truly exceptional customer experience. We have had an amazing team of professionals working with us right from sourcing this product through to our launches for both HR and then Payroll and beyond. They have always been responsive to queries, extremely supportive in the training ready for implementation and their aftercare support. They have all gone above and beyond in equipping us with the knowledge, information and also confidence enabling a smooth and seamless transition from one provider to another. The positive feedback from our employees speaks volumes and supports how user friendly Cezanne is. This change has been easily embraced and welcomed by our Company due to the product itself but also the people at Cezanne who have worked with us to support this. Pros How bespoke the system is especially in tailoring security roles and profiles in addition to exceptional functionality across the board and the excellent customer service. Cons There isn't anything we don't like although a few enhancements would support the end user further e.g. availability of payslips on the app Alternatives considered [Access PeopleHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/211952/Access-People-HR-Software/) Reason for choosing Cezanne HR Overall functionality and ease of use, met all the specific requirements we had which were non negotiable Switched from [Moorepay](https://www.capterra.com/p/128703/Natural-HR/)[Timetastic](https://www.capterra.com/p/146655/Timetastic/) Issues with bespoking security profiles and also functionality. Moorepay end user experience very poor, lots of issues Review Source jB john B. Payroll Co-Ordinator Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Recent Cezanne implementation" April 15, 2025 3.0 Implementation was relatively smooth, although there were some gremlins that appeared once the implementation process had finished, and some of our processes needed completely overhauled to work with the new system. However once we did this, and everyone got a better understanding of how to use the system to our advantage it does work well Pros The self service element of the system works very well, allowing our employees to make sure there details are all up to date and it allows them to check what information we have used before querying. Cons The date driven nature of the system is totally different to the way that our HR software worked, which meant that implementation of automation from the scheduled reports was more complicated than it seemed initially Switched from [Breathe](https://www.capterra.com/p/126547/BreatheHr/) The company out-grew the number of employees that BreatheHR could handle. Review Source BM Brooke M. HR Assistant Security and Investigations Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Positive Experience with Cezanne" April 11, 2025 5.0 Overall, my experience with Cezanne has been very positive, it's well-designed, offering a wide range of features that cater to various HR functions like onboarding, performance management, and searches. It's clean and intuitive, making it easy for both HR professionals and employees to use. I particularly appreciate the customisable nature of the platform, which allowed us to tailor it to our specific needs. Pros I really liked how user-friendly and intuitive the interface is. It’s easy to navigate even for those who aren't super tech-savvy. The system is also highly configurable, which made it simple to tailor to our specific HR processes. Plus, features like absence management and performance reviews were streamlined and saved a lot of admin time. The customer support/AI chatbot is also very responsive and helpful whenever we needed assistance. Cons One thing I found a bit frustrating was that some of the more advanced features required additional configuration, which could take a bit of time to fully set up, such as the old recruitment module. Further, the reporting features, could benefit from more flexibility in terms of custom report creation.

HR Manager Renewables & Environment Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Transformative First HRIS Implementation with Customized Excellence & Future-Ready Vision" April 14, 2025 5.0 Our experience with Cezanne HRIS has been transformative, marking a significant leap forward in how we manage HR processes and engage employees. As our first HRIS, the platform has not only met but often exceeded our expectations, delivering a blend of simplicity, flexibility, and innovation that aligns perfectly with our growing organisation. Pros Seamless First-Time HRIS Implementation - As our company’s first HRIS, Cezanne made the transition surprisingly smooth. Its intuitive design and user-friendly interface ensured quick adoption across teams, minimising disruption and maximising efficiency from day one. Our implementation manager was a true partner—responsive, knowledgeable, and committed to understanding our unique needs. They turned potential challenges into opportunities, ensuring the system aligned perfectly with our workflows and culture. Cons While our experience with Cezanne has been overwhelmingly positive, we’ve noted a few opportunities to refine the system further: While basic reporting is strong, we’d love more drag-and-drop customization for ad-hoc reports. Employees love the Home Hub, but some mention notification fatigue. While we’ve tailored the appraisal process brilliantly, adding more dynamic goal-tracking visuals (e.g., progress bars, milestone celebrations) could boost manager/employee motivation. Alternatives considered [BambooHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/)[Breathe](https://www.capterra.com/p/126547/BreatheHr/) Reason for choosing Cezanne HR Intuitive design and the partnership with the HR Ninja's was reassuring.

Easy to use some room for improvement but the best HR system I have used Pros Easy to use. Recruitment module is good . Holiday booking is simple Cons I would like all managers to be able to see other teams holidays without giving them full access.

Head of People and Talent Child Day Care Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Acorn Early Years" April 16, 2025 4.0 The implementation process was good, although at times it was rushed. A lot was covered in a short period. Pros The easy of use, both from an admin point of view and also for users. Also being able to add modules over time. Support - emails are responded to very quickly and guidance is clear Cons Analytic reporting is not easy to use when wanting different criteria Account management support - We use to have good contact with our account manager (\[sensitive content hidden\]).

Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Outstanding Software with Outstanding Support" April 11, 2025 5.0 Overall, CezanneHR and all associated modules have been a breath of fresh air and make our People & Talent function much more effective in their efforts to support favourable business outcomes - we are all excited about the implementation of Occupop and look forward to continuing to partner with Cezanne for many years to come! Pros The customisable nature of the functionality across the modules allows for a bespoke feel from an out-of-the-box product. Each module communicates instinctively, reducing administration time and improving user experience. Equally, our interactions with the Cezanne team have been nothing but positive and it's that human element that really helps new users buy-in when introduced to the system and the wider support network available. Cons This is somewhat of a dubious "Con", but from my own experience there can be so many different fields and sub-headings that the amount of information stored can be difficult to navigate quickly - as an example, finding annual leave remaining is behind multiple menus and there is an abundance of data/info which can be "noisy" when looking for something specific. Review Source VN Vikki N. Talent Director Computer Games Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Simple but effective system!" April 11, 2025 4.0 Overall I have used Cezanne for over 10 years now and was an early adopter of the system. You must be doing something right! Pros I like the simplicity of the system and how clean the UI is and easy to use. I like that the system continues to evolve. The service we receive from the helpdesk are very good and answering timely. Cons It is set up for full time employees and we have constant problems with part timers and some of the ways you need to treat them differently. For example, we have a part timer and we cannot reflect her annual pro-rated salary correctly. Getting reports from the system can be difficult to understand. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Head of Legal, DPO Financial Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Streamlined HR Solution for Efficient Management" September 8, 2025 5.0 My overall experience with Cezanne HR has been positive. The platform is reliable and provides the key functionalities needed to manage human resources tasks efficiently, with strong support from the team whenever required. Although the interface could feel more modern, the system delivers solid performance and value. Pros I found the platform intuitive and easy to navigate, which made managing applications much simpler. The automation features saved considerable time by streamlining repetitive human resources tasks. Their support team was responsive and helpful, ensuring a smooth implementation and user experience. Cons The interface feels a little old-fashioned and could benefit from a more modern design. Some workflows appear less intuitive compared to newer HR digital platforms. Updating the user experience would make the tool even more engaging and efficient. Review Source KR Katy R.
