We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The advantage of choosing Cornerstone HR Suite is that if a company does not have an existing tool and plans to adopt automation, then there is a chance to gain from implementing this solution.""The flexibility and the fact that it covers all different HR modules is the most valuable aspect of Cornerstone. They did organically built, so all modules are integrated with the same way of managing the configuration, contextualization, availability, and reporting across all of the modules.""Cornerstone is easy to use...Cornerstone is used for playing training courses and short videos based on company requirements."

"I appreciated the templates that they offered for new hires and onboarding.""I like the payroll part. We also use documents and forms whenever we hire, such as a new hire form for each state, and we like that as well."

Cons
"The recruitment module can be improved and also the general reporting can be improved.""The solution's interface is really, really old and requires improvements...Cornerstone should use newer technologies to improve its UI, UX, and content.""We're using different tools like tracking systems, exploring workforce management, and also using payroll, which is another tool, so we need to know where exactly the information is present. This feature needs improvement in the next release."

More Cornerstone HR Suite Cons →

"Their enrollment e-signature, enrollment forms, and other documents need a lot of work. Once we fill in the information, we cannot go back and change any of that. It's a time-taking process. If there is any mistake in the document and if we need to go and change a specific field in the form, it's not possible. We have to redo the entire form.""In the beginning, their support was top-notch. And then around the beginning of 2022, and end of 2021, their support tanked. We used to get responses in the beginning within one to two business days, and towards the end, we were getting responses in one to two business weeks."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The product can be considered as not being on the high-end side of the price spectrum, as many other products are much more expensive. However, it cannot be said that it is cheap either."
