DarwinBox is not at all a user-friendly product. DarwinBox is a product that needs to be made more user-friendly. DarwinBox's UI is not at all interactive and resembles some website that is made with HTML code, making it a very boring website. From an improvement perspective, DarwinBox's UI needs to be made better. There is no data integration possible with DarwinBox. DarwinBox is not a cloud-based product, and its servers are very messed up. The aforementioned areas concerning DarwinBox are aspects that I don't like and need to be considered for improvement in the future. In general, DrawinBox's servers, integration capabilities, and user interface should be improved. Every functionality that DarwinBox claims to provide to its users needs improvement.

With my very limited knowledge and experience, at present, I think it can be improved from the perspective of customization. Like most software, it has a base version, the vanilla, out-of-the-box version, and customization is required to match it to the unique processes of each company. The Darwinbox team seems to be having difficulty with the customization process. They have to be a little more mature to customize it as per every company's need. I would definitely like to see a better chatbot. Even though it has an existing chatbot, it's more of a click-and-navigate one. What I would like to see is one that responds to vocal commands. For example, if I were to say, "I want to see my performance appraisal rating," it should automatically detect that and go to that page. What we currently have requires us to write specific tags. For instance, instead of saying the entire line, I have to write "performance appraisal." Then, it will give some options, and we have to click and go to that option page.

Key learnings from peers

Valuable Features

"The most valuable features of the solution are organogram and position-based mapping."
"In our company, we use DarwinBox to maintain the data of our employees and for recruitment purposes."
"The solution that we used previously was very complex. As a result, without referring to the manuals and consulting an expert, it was difficult for a newly hired employee to navigate the platform. However, this is not the case with Darwinbox. It has a very intuitive user interface, and anyone can use it and implement it without having to use a guide or a walk through process. It's very simple."

Room for Improvement

"The solution's API integration with third-party applications should be improved."
"DarwinBox is not a stable solution...DarwinBox is not a scalable solution."
"Like most software, it has a base version, the vanilla, out-of-the-box version, and customization is required to match it to the unique processes of each company. The Darwinbox team seems to be having difficulty with the customization process. They have to be a little more mature to customize it as per every company's need."

Pricing

"Compared with SuccessFactors, there is no major difference in DarwinBox's cost."
"My company makes some yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to DarwinBox."
