The setup is still easy and support is great. > > **Cons**: I still have a little trouble getting reports to report on what I want it to. Also, with all the upgrades, their pricing has gone up. > > They have great support and even when I have trouble it usually ends up with a good result. Overall, I'd say we are very happy with it. ----- ### "Positive Experience" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *28 March 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is very easy to use and navigate. We keep adding the use of more features of the software for our team and it’s been a great resource\! > > **Cons**: We use the system to track mileage and topics for 1:1s with our supervisors (among other things). I find it difficult to add mileage using the app and there is no way to even access the tab for 1:1s with my supervisor in the app. > > Overall, I’m very pleased with the software\! It’s been a great addition to our resources and we continue to rely on it more and more. ----- ### "Better than their competitors" — 4.0/5 > **Tomas** | *17 February 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: After having changed to some competitor, I now miss BambooHR's features significantly. Other's are utterly complex, especially when viewing already requested annual leaves. > > **Cons**: It still needs a major rework in terms of containing local calendars and their holidays, and syncing properly with other tools. ----- ### "Easy to use and set up." — 4.0/5 > **Mark** | *26 February 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that it is very user friendly. I feel like as far as HRIS tools it is incredibly easy to set up and start using. The document signing is very handy and easy to use as well. > > **Cons**: BambooHR has the bare bones when it comes to integrations. Its a great product but unless you are using their preferred software partners your toast. Otherwise you are rocking a CSV import. > > It has been a good experience overall, they keep raising the pricing which doesn't make sense. But for now we are okay using it. ----- ### "Bamboo HR Review after using it for 4 years" — 5.0/5 > **Rakhi** | *27 March 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is clean and straightforward BambooHR is for the basics—finding employee info, org details, and important documents is quick and not buried under too many menus. I also appreciate how it centralizes HR tasks (like time-off requests and approvals) so there’s less back-and-forth > > **Cons**: Some areas feel a bit limited once you need more detail—like- reporting or pulling specific insights can require extra steps or doesn’t always give the exact view you want without workarounds. Also, the user experience can feel slightly inconsistent depending on the section you’re in, so a few workflows take more clicks than expected. > > My experience has been positive. It’s reliable, easy to navigate, and does a great job of keeping HR information and processes organized in one place. While there are a few areas that could be smoother—especially around deeper reporting and reducing clicks—it’s still a solid tool for day-to-day HR needs. ----- Page: 1 / 126\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/27196/bamboohr-payroll?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/27196/bamboohr-payroll) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
