Owner Publishing Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "The nicest HRIS I've ever used" June 12, 2023 4.0 Bob is a highly effective HRIS for small-medium sized SaaS companies Pros Bob is a solid HRIS system that can manage HR processes effectively. The system is user-friendly and easy to navigate, making it accessible to all employees. Its time tracking feature is highly efficient and helps to streamline the payroll process. Moreover, the feedback tracking feature is solid. Cons Bob's performance management leave much to be desired. Additionally, Bob's lack of support for useful competency frameworks is a major weakness. Without a strong foundation in this area, employees may struggle to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to excel in their roles.

People Services Specialist Philanthropy Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "An honest review of HiBob" July 3, 2023 5.0 A real challenger to the old-school main systems around. HiBob along with others really manage to bring a breath of fresh air in HR management and HRIS tools in general. I could not recommend it more.Its system as a SaaS is extremely convenient and can tailor it to any potential use, whether limited in combination with other systems or as your full HR system. Pros Every feature of HiBob has a meaningful impact, as long as it is properly set and used. The support team is fantastic and solves issues extremely quickly.We have HiBob for our organisation since last year, but I don't see how we could have done it with any other system. The most impactful to me is clearly the employee database management, and its general ease of use. Cons There are some automation features that are lacking, for instance the time and attendance module not being automatically linked to overtime policies. But I have no doubt that this will be implemented soon.The price can also be a deterrent, but it does fit with our purpose and need. Review Source VF Valentino F. People, Culture & Inclusion Generalist Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Bob can be a great friend, but you need to know him well first" March 12, 2023 4.0 Bob is our HRIS. Whether that’s our people themselves (being able to see all of their employment information in one place, being able to book a holiday and see when others have time off), our managers (getting a full view of their team’s details - salaries, job titles, locations in one place and seeing time off in full view in order to capacity plan accurately) or our People, Culture and Inclusion team (reporting, right to work checks, onboarding new folks, onboarding ourselves onto new systems and employment changes) - all of these things get simpler with Bob. We make a great use of the automation of tasks that Bob allows to build, from new joiners to leavers, from probation and onboarding to parental leave, we have created flows that automatically assign tasks to the relevant people, to make sure nothing is missed on important lifecycle phases of employees. Pros great user and admin experienceDEIB focus with pronouns and demographic fieldsmass loading possible super quick implementationautomation of tasks and workflows Cons Automations don't always workSupport is patchy and relies too much on users being able to solve the problem themselvesA lot of workarounds are necessary to overcome Bob's limitations Alternatives considered [Personio](https://www.capterra.com/p/158622/Personio/)[Humaans](https://www.capterra.com/p/219477/Humaans/) Reason for choosing HiBob Quick implementation, onboarding & pre boarding workflows were suitable based on our needs, the UI is intuitive Review Source VR Verified Reviewer HR Manager Biotechnology Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great for Growing Global Company" March 21, 2023 5.0 Our first implementation specialist was amazing. She provided excellent resources and followed up quickly. She was knowledgeable and helpful. Our account manager is also very good and she works with us monthly to help make sure that we're meeting our annual HR goals by reducing administrative workload in the system and allowing us more time to focus on the people of the organization. Pros More than just an HRIS, it's a place for employee engagement. Great personalized homepage to keep people updated. Easy to use and to set up. You can keep a pulse on the culture with ease. They are constantly improving product and takes feedback from clients and they keep you informed. They also work with you to ensure that the product is meeting your needs and help you find ways to better utilize it. It's easy to implement new items and grows with the company well. We were able to globalize our Org chart and better integrate the global teams. Cons Currently, there is no way to have a site admin vs a total admin. This is an issue if you want a HR lead at each site to be able to customize the program without access to their counterpart's private information. Also, employee's do not have the ability to opt in or out for their birthday or work anniversary being shared. There are work arounds but right out of the box, it's either all employees show up or none show up on the homepage.

Review Source LD Leeav D. Finance Intern Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "HiBob Review" March 16, 2023 5.0 I love this software and would recommend it to all companies looking to get a HRIS system in place. Pros I love the UX and especially the customer support team, both in Israel and in NY. Cons Sometimes features aren't available for different employees and it takes time to talk to the HR manager to allow some permissions.

Chief People Officer Human Resources Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "I've chosen bob over another great product I was using in the past and haven't regretted!" June 6, 2018 5.0 ease of HR management, also our finance team benefits from easy holidays/absenses management, payroll reports and such. I'm doing all admin in bob, from contracts to onboarding, org structure, salary changes etc Pros It's very easy to use - user friendly interface, intuitive navigation, you can find whatever you need in the matter of seconds even if it's your first experience with the platform It's beautiful - our employees love it too The support team is amazing - they not only resolve any issues quickly, but they also listen to suggestions and implement them within reasonable time. I love getting product updates as I know that there will be something I asked about. The system features everything you'd want from a modern HRIS and even more - we love club feature and about section - it helps employees learn more about each other and find common interests. There's some functions that I'd love to have but they are not yet there (such as pre-boarding or e-signature) but the guys are constantly working on them and I've seen that for example e-signature is coming within next few weeks. Cons If we are talking about bob as HRIS there's very few things that I don't like, or rather I would like to have and they are not yet there - prebording being one example. I'd love performance module to be more sophisticated but the guys have just introduced it and I see that it gets updated constantly, which is great. also, it's not a separate platform for performance management so I wouldn't expect it have all the features that other platforms dedicted to performance only have. There are other small things (such as I can't send a survey to 1 person only), but they are small compared to all the benefits and again, I know that sooner or later those will be resolved too.

Ability to generate custom, digestible reports and analytics. The HR staff and the employees who have utilized it have given us nothing but positive feedback. Pros HiBob is both easy for administrators to use and intuitive for end users. Good data visibility and an intuitive interface characterize the reporting features. Workflows are fantastic, in my opinion as well. Cons Invisible drawbacks. Thanks to Bob's continuous updates and addition of new features in response to consumer input, any problems I've had have been swiftly and simply fixed.

The problem we were having was keeping tabs on probationers. Bob's performance features helped us design a process that satisfied both management and staff. Review Source SC Sarah C. Associate Director of Organizational Development E-Learning Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Highly recommend!" June 27, 2023 5.0 Pros bob is a user-friendly People tool that has been a great resource for our business. It has helped us automate tasks and focus on people initiatives that make a difference in employees' lives. With easy to use reporting systems and detailed dashboards, we are able to make well informed data-driven decisions. Cons Would love to see further expansion in the 1x1 tool to enable team members to make meetings with their managers, and allow other leaders book 1x1s with team members to encourage mentoring. I would also love to see further development in the e-sign templates to allow for direct uploading of editable pdfs. Review Source SW Stefan W.

June 20, 2023 5.0 Pros A central platform that can connect to all other satellites in your organization, versatile in so many ways.Bobs modules are great, you can define your own system and build as grow, from start-up to corporate Cons We would love to have Calculation fields in compensation planning.And be able to define our own calculations for ex Annual Bonuses Alternatives considered [Oracle PeopleSoft](https://www.capterra.com/p/155958/Oracle-PeopleSoft/)[BambooHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/)[Workday HCM](https://www.capterra.com/p/66908/Workday-HCM/) Reason for choosing HiBob We wanted an HRM to feel like a hoodie, not a suit and tie Review Source AJ Anders J. HR Generalist Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Extremely satisfied with bob as a comprehensive HRIS" May 18, 2023 5.0 Our experience has been exemplary, especially compared to past HR systems we've worked with. Pros Bob is extremely user friendly and allows for customization to meet our needs. Customer support is very responsive and helpful in coming up with creative solutions to achieve our goals for the system. They take our feedback and implement changes regularly that constantly improve efficiency and make our lives easier. Cons My only complaint is the relative lack of flexibility to update the look and feel in bob. We have also experienced some issues with moving task due dates.

Pros Very easy to use as an HRIS, really great Dashboards feature and good basic Performance Management System. Cons The Reporting feature could be more intuitive. Review Source AJ Ashley J. Senior Manager, People Operations Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Fantastic, Flexible Option" July 27, 2023 5.0 Pros Unlike other HRIS companies I've worked with in the past, the Bob platform is incredibly flexible. I'm able to set up customized onboarding flows, employee fields, and reports for every instance. Surprises come up in HR a lot and HiBob can go with the flow. Cons My least favorite feature is no good screen to view all holidays across the company for employees. Alternatives considered [BambooHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/) Reason for choosing HiBob Bob had more flexibility and more integrations with our other systems. Review Source KW Karlin W. Senior HR Manager Financial Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Hibob is incredible! " November 17, 2023 5.0 Pros HiBob is incredibly convenient for efficiently compiling and organizing staff data, particularly when it comes to gathering specific information for various tasks and departments. Its flexibility significantly streamlines my workload, making managing data a breeze. Cons HiBob is fantastic, but a feature I'd love to see is the ability to save preset report filters for different departments. This would streamline processes by having specific filters ready, eliminating the need to manually adjust them for each department's unique requirements. Implementing this would further boost efficiency and customization within the platform. Review Source Sebastian I.

It is a main staple on most tools to be integrated with, slack is easy but also other payroll, engagement and HR/Tech tools integrate seamlessly. Love the UX, simple, colourful and engaging. Customer service is great too! Keep doing what you're doing, bob :) Cons The pricing model for new features could be a bit more adaptable. We wanted to add timesheets just to a set number of employees but they wanted to charge us for the whole company!

I've worked with several HRIS and it is honestly the easiest to use, the support team are lovely and overall it is a great user experience. Pros Access to real time data. System is easy to customise, you don't need a dev team to make changes you need and changes can be done in real time. Ease of use both for the HR team and employees. Its easy to navigate and use. Cons I think more work can be done on the performance management piece i.e.: including weightings on key indicators, instead of on the whole goal.

The platform is highly customizable. Cons The mobile app is not as user-friendly as the web app.Every profile created on Bob counts as a user. However, they have the same pricing if we want to add a contractor or freelancer. I miss more data from the analytics perspective. High price.

It makes HR more fun with a social media-like feel to it, which helps build a virtual community between employees. Cons Because there is so much capacity, sometimes it can be difficult to navigate and understand the process behind specific tools. There are still some features that I doubt I have understood, but as time goes I explore and learn more and the potential keeps growing. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Web Developer Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Bob for Web Developers" November 23, 2023 3.0 Pros You can easily access all employee database and quickly. The software doesn't lag. The time and attendance tracking is always accurate and it also provides a report of all the gathered data. Cons It's not available for all languages, so the selection is limited, as well as offline functionalities, which are also limited. If you are not used to HR platforms, some of its tools can be confusing to use at first. Review Source CW Claire W.

Useful and user friendly" November 25, 2023 5.0 Pros It's very easy to navigate as a user. The side panel makes it easy to find what you are looking for. The Time Off section is what I mainly use Bob for and I like the feature where you can estimate how much time off you'll have in the future The demographics for our organisation is also a very neat feature on the homepage Cons I do not have anything that I don't like about Bob. If anything, I wish there were more demographics for our organisation on the homepage, and maybe update the demographics!

April 20, 2023 5.0 It is great for team members to have access to the org chart, their goals and reviews right at their finger tips. Pros Using Bob for onboarding, goal setting, and performance management have streamlined a lot of our bulky processes. We look forward to moving forward using more of the product soon. Cons I wish the integration of HR data would be a little easier or that we could have help now that we are ready to start that part even though we have been using Bob for other things for a while. Reason for choosing HiBob Bob was very intuitive and what we needed. It had a very quick implementation timeline, which was wonderful for us because we were in such desperate need of something fast but of GREAT quality. Review Source NK Natassa K.

Easier to use and add more value than the previous one. Excellent customer care.

Handy search and user profile browsing! Cons Maybe a lack of integration with other tools, and little bit odd API with some confusing responses. Review Source GS Gretchen S. HR Manager Computer Software Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great for organizing globally" March 15, 2023 5.0 We are still working to find the best way to use Bob for many tasks. However, it has really allowed our HR team to unify on practices and documentation in a way that we couldn't before. Our management team likes the ease of requesting promotions and raises for the team, and everyone enjoys the visually attractive org chart. Pros The interface is easy to use, which leads to high rates of adoption. We also like that it works for our employees in Russia - finding a product that works in Russia was difficult, and it kept us from uniting as a global organization. Finally, I like how customizable and configurable it is. Teams in different companies or even different states have very different needs, and Bob lets our HR team build processes that are conditioned on employee demographics. Cons It's a steep learning curve! You need to have someone on your team prepared to really learn the software inside and out. Review Source TT Tilly T. Talent Partner Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Good Integrations " March 7, 2024 5.0 Pros Love the fact that you can integrate many different platforms with Bob. Such as Zinc and Greenhouse and really easy to work your way around the system. Cons I cant think of any at this moment. Love everything it does.
