People Experience Director Management Consulting, 201-500 employees Used the software for: 6-12 months ** Overall Rating 1.0 ** Ease of Use 1.0 Customer Service 2.0 Features 3.0 Value for Money 2.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10% 1/10 Reviewer Source Source: Capterra January 22, 2026 "Strong promise, inconsistent delivery" **Overall:** Rippling is a platform with strong potential and a compelling product vision, supported by good integrations and a capable sales organisation. However, ongoing stability issues, slow resolution times for complex problems, and limited visibility into product changes make day-to-day operations more difficult than they should be. With improved platform reliability, clearer roadmap communication, and a stronger focus on quality over speed, Rippling could deliver much more consistently on its promise. **Pros:** Rippling has a highly engaging and polished sales team that does a great job explaining the platform’s potential and capabilities. From a systems perspective, Rippling has also helped streamline key integrations, particularly between Rippling and Azure. This has meaningfully supported our IT teams in managing user access, provisioning, and deprovisioning more efficiently, reducing manual effort and improving overall control. **Cons:** The biggest challenge has been platform stability across core modules. Features can break or change without notice, and fixes in one area often create downstream issues elsewhere. This creates operational friction and increases reliance on support and engineering escalation. There is also a noticeable gap between what is sold as available or “ready” functionality and what is consistently stable in practice. Stronger testing, clearer communication around changes, and more realistic positioning of product maturity would significantly improve the experience. **Alternatives Considered:** [HiBob](https://www.capterra.com/p/156106/Hibob/) and [Deel](https://www.capterra.com/p/205015/Deel/) **Reasons for Choosing Rippling:** Rippling appeared to meet our requirements and was supported by an excellent sales team. Unfortunately, there seems to be a disconnect between the sales experience and the product teams responsible for delivery and support. **Switched From:** [Looop](https://www.capterra.com/p/140975/Looop/), [BambooHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/) and [Teamflect](https://www.capterra.com/p/234380/Teamflect/) **Reasons for Switching to Rippling:** We had a complex systems landscape and Rippling provided the promise to streamline.

We're a smaller company and Rippling has a lot of features that would be amazing for large organizations - we're just not big enough to need them or find value in them, but it's still great for a company of our size (~50 employees/contractors). We moved from TriNet/Zenefits becuase they were completely changing their service structure and increasing our cost considerably. As the main admin using our HRIS systems, Rippling is by far a superior product and was less expensive than staying with TriNet. **Pros:** Payroll: it shows exactly what has changed for each individual from cycle to cycle, so I can easily flag any issues Reviews: Very easy to set up and to customize, and able to set different due dates for different aspects of the review process (and set different forward facing and internal due dates) Spend/Finance: Can't say enough about how nice it is to manage our credit cards, expenses, and reimbursements all from our HR platform. It's one of their newer offerings so there are improvements that could be made, but it's still a huge step up for us from how we were managing these, from both the admin side and employee user experience. **Cons:** The main issue we've encountered is in the Benefits module, and that we're not able to fully configure our medical insurance company contributions in the way that we want to. We've opted for a bandaid fix for now, which means that some employees' information is incorrect, and are really hoping that they make product changes before our next Open Enrollment cycle at the end of the year. Due to the contributions issue, I have to manually update payroll deductions. This hasn't been quite as smooth as it should be, and there have been some challenges getting the Benefits deductions area to correctly sync with Payroll. We've opted not to connect our company email with Rippling, and because we're not using that feature, it's not allowing us to enter work email addresses at all in individuals' profiles. It's not a huge issue, but is inconvenient. Our implementation manager said that there should be a way to fix this, but our account manager wasn't able to provide much guidance so I haven't looked into it further. **Alternatives Considered:** [Remote](https://www.capterra.com/p/211639/Remote/), [BambooHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/) and [GoCo](https://www.capterra.com/p/149545/GoCo/) **Reasons for Choosing Rippling:** Overall functionality + price + CC and expense management feature **Switched From:** [TriNet HR Plus](https://www.capterra.com/p/133019/Zenefits/) **Reasons for Switching to Rippling:** changing their service structure and increasing our cost considerably [Read All 4603 Reviews](https://www.capterra.com/p/172127/Rippling/reviews/) ## How should I be thinking about software pricing?
