Find out in this report how the two Benefits Administration solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."BambooHR is accessible to users who aren't good with technology. If you don't have an IT background, you can easily find information about any employee."
"Leave management is the most valuable as they all started with leave management and then progressed to performance management. Of course, employee profiles are central to everything. It is also very easy to use. Customers get on board with it very quickly. One of the selling points for BambooHR is that they have a very wide partner network. There are lots of other partners that have integrations with BambooHR. They have an open API. This is one of the things that is driving its growth because lots of people and companies are literally just building integrations of BambooHR to ride the wave. If you have an integration with BambooHR, you get sales. People are more likely to choose your product because they've already chosen BambooHR. That's how it is happening. It is a cloud deployment, so there is only one version. They do the updates every month, and because of this, you are encouraged to send them feedback all the time. You never know. Your feature may be included in the next release."
"The tool's most valuable features are the recruitment module, performance module, and document storage."
"The product is user-friendly."
"The solution's technical support is super responsive and helpful. I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"The performance goals and personal features of every employee with the dashboard is most valuable."
"This is a scalable solution. We have not experienced any issues."
"We use this solution for our end to end HR needs from onboarding and hiring to learning."
"It is easy to use. Requisition management and pre-screening are the two most valuable features."
"The solution offers good benefits for administrators."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"Good integration capabilities and extensibility."
"Performance and goal management are good to have, based on certain client requirements where the user base isn't too large, but the most workable domain of Taleo is the recruiting module."
"The Talent Acquisition and Headhunting features are good."
"The stability of the solution is good."
"It would be useful to have the possibility to assign a task to the different users within the software."
"BambooHR could be improved by managing leave in a way that transfers remaining days at the end of the annual year to the following year."
"The performance could be improved. When you save some documents, it takes longer to store them in BambooHR's systems than it used to. Something needs to be upgraded or fixed in the code. Alow, we provide services to other companies, so Bamboo isn't able to help us in many areas because of the way we work."
"BambooHR needs to have more flexibility around performance management."
"We cannot add more questions to the assessments if we want to."
"The UI needs improvement because it needs to be more user-friendly."
"If you are dealing with two or more businesses under one company name, it is not possible to transfer employees between companies if they have a separate bamboo set up."
"There are some issues with the job tab under my info where you add the salary."
"Lacks some systems that we need."
"In terms of Oracle Taleo as a product, there are a lot of things which can be developed; most feedback which I have heard from customers is about the dashboard and the home page, both of which are quite basic."
"It would be ideal if we could integrate the solution with Olympia. It would be helpful if we could add another support desk for an IT person. It would be great if the product was more interdisciplinary and could include IT."
"There are always going to be little caveats here and there that you might not have known about as far as changes are concerned, however, it's not business-oriented to the point where the business shuts down."
"The bulk recruitment feature does not work well."
"The pricing could be improved."
"I don't see very valuable features in this product because it has an old way of interpreting ATS. It should be more flexible in managing datasets and data searches. The screening data is a long process in Taleo."
