### "Review Access PeopleHR from HR advisor perspective "

February 25, 2026

5.0

It has been a great experience like a mentioned before especially with the AI chat box as it made a massive difference to resolve issues quicker.

Pros

Is easy to navigate and can store all important documents/files , as well as the chat box is a massive help.

Cons

Creating reports in Access PeopleHR used to be quite time-consuming and not very intuitive, which sometimes made extracting the right data frustrating. However, the introduction of the chat box has been a massive positive change and has significantly improved the overall user experience.

### "Access People HR Review"

February 25, 2026

4.0

Overall I find Access PeopleHR to be a good system that has the right features for what we need, but there are some improvements on quality of life and using away from your desk that could be worked upon

Pros

People HR is overall very user friendly with adding in leave requests/approvals etc and performance appraisals easy to use and report on.

Cons

Some areas are still confusing to find, for example when looking for documents this can be time consuming and have you navigate from multiple screens. Perhaps a search function would be better here. Also its not very friendly on mobile devices, perhpas this needs improving or an app available

### "A fit for purpose product"

February 25, 2026

5.0

My overall experience has been positive in the main. It works when I need it to work and staff also find it easy to use.

Pros

I like the ease of holiday planning and seeing when others are off. I also like how documents can be stored centrally.

Cons

I would like to be able to see indirect reports. Right now i can only see direct reports, which means i am unable to manage indirect reports when their line manager is off. Syncing of the diary to outlook could be improved too.

### "Overall a good platform "

December 17, 2025

4.0

Overall good and easier than the last HR portal we used as a company. There are always some improvements but overall happy

Pros

For each staff member you have clear tabs on what you need to find for them. How many days holidays they have to take and how much sickness they have had.

Cons

The drop downs on saving documents are not specific so where you may put a review etc may be different from another manager.

### "Overall very satisfied, easy to set up! "

May 22, 2026

3.0

Pros

It's super easy to set up and setting up ripples is fairly easy. We are a small company so being able to see all of the people info in one place is helpful.

Cons

The main dashboard is somewhat difficult to navigate. It's easy to read to start with but when I dig into some of the data it's hard to understand.

### "Access PeopleHR, simple and effective"

May 22, 2026

5.0

Used for a number of years and simple to manage employee information and absence booking, with good record of past settings.

Pros

Value for money, ease of use. A very simply solution for employees to book and manage their holidays and for management to approve.

Cons

More features than I need, but that's not really something not to like, just makes the product feel clunky and trying to do too much for our needs.

### "Improving with time but needs modernising"

February 25, 2026

3.0

Improving with time but some investment into developing a more modern, user-friendly interface would be good. There is misalignment between some features - ie the logbooks are outdated, no ability to create own customisable documents and the performance management area needs an overhaul as the question format is awful.

Pros

There are a lot of useful features and like having different modules all under access group. It is being improved over time.

Cons

A lot of areas need modernising and making it more seamless but they are making progress on changes.

February 25, 2026

4.0

I have used peopleHR for over 5 years and have continually found it a great product which is constantly updated to suit the needs of users. The reporting features are great. It has been very well accepted in all the companies I have worked for - by both staff and management. Its a great management tool

Pros

ease of use great management data love the on line chat support - which gives instant help Managers can access their staff data without having to constantly contact HR

Cons

would like to see pre built reporting difficulty resetting passwords when staff forget or get locked out

### "Easy-to-use HR system with good support"

July 3, 2026

5.0

Overall, my experience has been positive. The system is reliable and covers the key HR functions we need without being overly complicated. It has helped reduce manual administration and made it easier for employees and managers to handle routine HR tasks. While there are a few features that could be improved, it offers good value and has been a solid HR solution for our business.

Pros

Access PeopleHR is easy to use and makes everyday HR tasks much simpler. It's straightforward to request leave, access employee records, and manage documents in one place. The customer support team has also been helpful whenever we've needed assistance.

Cons

There are a few areas that could be improved. Some reports take a bit of time to customise, and occasionally the system feels a little slow. It would also be useful to have more flexibility with certain workflows and approvals.

February 25, 2026

5.0

Overall, the experience has been positive - great team from start to finish. Well project managed and implemented. Our requirements were quite complex but the team were able to deliver everything we required and the staff give positive feedback about the product, which is great to hear.

Pros

Very easy to use and excellent customer support. The mobile app in particular has driven much higher adoption than any HR Product we have used before.

Cons

Some of our requirements, whilst achievable, needed to be delivered by a specialist/developer which can make things more expensive and have an impact on getting the product live.

### "Great System"

February 25, 2026

5.0

Really good, structured process during set up. From the start with the sales teams, they were clear and concise in answering all questions to ensure this was the correct system for our business.

Pros

We love this system! It's easy to use and the reporting functionality is excellent. The end user app and desktop version is also really user friendly. Love the pulse survey option!

Cons

Nothing really, probably need more training but the chat bot is excellent at answering any questions.

### "Great platform with lots of functionality"

February 25, 2026

5.0

Overall a very positive experience, i really like the great user experience and the reporting capability is very good

Pros

I really like the planner section and the self service functions on the platform, from an HR admin perspective it has greatly reduced the time it takes to process changes. The reporting capabilities are great and using the ripples and log books are a fantastic feature that help automate process and freeing up time. It has an ease of use that is refreshing compared to other systems and the customer support from the initial training on going customer support and AI support are all very good. It provides value for money

Cons

I would like to be able to record phased returns on the planner and log sickness in hours and not the pre set full, half or quarter day

### "All HR functions in one place"

September 23, 2025

5.0

My overall experience has been nothing but positive, and as mentioned, you need to grasp all the elements of this package to fully appreciate how it helps with the HR functions overall.

Pros

We use a number of products from the Access Group with one of them being PeopleHR, as it manages our HR processes with ease. The level of support provided by Access is second to none - with any query responded to and resolved quickly. This represents great value for money, with very little time spent by the team on understanding bugs and issues, which the team at Access do on our behalf. Having over 400+ employees, this system manages everything from online collaboration, to holiday bookings and accruals and even the performance management processes.

Cons

There's so much functionality that it takes a long time to fully grasp, but if you dedicate the time to learn, you will eventually reap the benefits.

### "Perfect for our medium-sized charity"

August 28, 2026

5.0

Can't fault it. It replaced a load of manual and time consuming processes for managers, and for senior staff it's given us a "whole organisation" view that would have been an annual job, whenever we want it.

Pros

As a director of a medium sized charity (29 people) PeopleHR replaced a whole load of manual/spreadsheet driven processes, and it's made it really easy to track things like leave, absences - in individual teams and across the whole organisation. It's really easy to use for staff and administrators, and implementation was really straightforward.

Cons

For our needs there's nothing really. We put quite a lot of work into the non-platform implementation (writing and briefing new processes, reminding staff to use it etc.) so usage is really high - it really needs all staff to be engaged and actively using the features to make the most of it.

Time consuming getting training dates and then only finding out about ripple and the benefits of it a year nearly into signing the contract.

Pros

Easy to create reports and store information of employee details. Good to have likes of HR functions such as appraisals and probation done on the system

Cons

the look of the planner it doesnt look very user friendly and look complicated for when managers need to report absence

February 25, 2026

3.0

The software meets the key basics, but the support isn't great - I wasn't even sure who the account manager was until a couple of weeks ago and we still have support cases that have been outstanding for weeks

Pros

Easy to use and navigate, very good value for money in comparison to the competitors I've seen - I like the emails offering webinars etc

Cons

Overall, the platform offers excellent value for money, delivering a strong balance between cost and functionality. The reporting features are clear, reliable, and provide meaningful insights that support better decision-making without requiring extensive technical knowledge. Users can easily generate, understand, and share reports. it's accessible even for those with limited experience. This ease of use reduces training time and helps teams adopt the system quickly. Combined, these strengths make it a practical and dependable solution for organisations seeking long-term performance, simplicity, and sustainable affordability.

Pros

The system is easy to use, and the webchat support is particularly helpful for getting quick answers to any issues that arise. The reporting function is also reliable and works well for our needs.

Cons

It can feel a little clunky at times, but overall it still offers good value for money. Despite occasional usability frustrations, the system provides nearly everything we need to operate effectively on a day-to-day basis.

February 25, 2026

5.0

Basically, installing this is the first time that our HR has been well managed. It's changed us from being messy, disorganised and possibly in some instances non compliant to having a professional approach. Fantastic investment, wish we'd made it earlier.

Pros

Love this - really intuitive to use, straightforward login (no endless faffing around with passwords), and does everything we need in one neat place. And a special shout out for the Leaving Wizard, which is a godsend!

Cons

Too many reminders to try the extension tools - I'm happy with the core product and don't need anything else.

October 2, 2025

4.0

Easy to use! Does the job and we have used it effectively for the last 6 years. It serves it's purpose and I like how it links to an ATS system.

Pros

The system is easy to use and can be used across the business at all different levels. It is easy to request holidays using the mobile app.

Cons

I think as a business grows, the system is less easy to use as it is quite manual. There is a lot of information that needs entering and could be done incorrectly due to human error. I would like to be able to lock down areas of the system and give more access to specific areas that are included in the 'super admin' access to those that don't need all access.

### "Maddy Green - PeopleHR Review"

March 2, 2026

4.0

PeopleHR can be slow on occasion, especially with the new version. However, overall I would say it is a well put together system and is incredibly useful.

Pros

It provides access to all the necessary information to complete my tasks. It organises the information in a way that prevents me from going back and fourth

Cons

The function of the Applicant Tracking System, it does not meet all the requirements needed to properly track candidates.

### "User-friendly and intuitive HRIS."

January 12, 2026

4.0

Good so far and useful with its multiple functions. Looking to integrate our payroll system with PeopleHR in future to make best use of the HRIS.

Pros

The HRIS is user-friendly and intuitive. We use it for multiple functions including recruitment, expense processing, managing leave and performance management. It also has a handy self-service app to complement the desktop website.

Cons

The ATS could be more visually appealing - it is not as 'attractive' as other ATS in the market. Also, not able to submit expenses on the desktop website - can only do this on the self-service app.
