Pourquoi passer à PurelyHR

Avantages

I like that you can code different time off types with colors, then look at the calendar to see who is off/why. This really helps with planning! I also like being able to set up all the different time off categories, and length of service plans.

Inconvénients

The reporting is a little 'cumbersome' to me. I would like to see a report that concisely lists the name, and then how much of each time off type left at end of year, without a different line listing each one.

Avantages

Simplicity and customization are made quite easy for administrator and employee's onboarding. We currently only use the time tracking portion of PurelyHR but we have been using for more than 10 years with great satisfaction. The cost has been quite positive as a not for profit.

Inconvénients

As far as time-off module goes, I think there's many reporting options and sometimes its hard to find on the first go the exact report type you need but there are some many options that what you are looking for does exist.

Avantages

It's relatively easy to use, and it has some functionality that we wanted when we were looking for an HR program. The auto-reminder function for birthdays and anniversaries is helpful

Inconvénients

It's a bit clunky. We originally wanted to use the performance management section for our lawyers and legal assistants. Unfortunately, we were never able to get it to work for our lawyers (because we have to solicit feedback from more than 10 partners. We also stopped using it for assistants, this year, because the process seemed a bit difficult to manage. If 3 people were reviewing one person's performance, the first or second would inevitably choose "FINALIZE" which then required an admin to go back and re-open the process before others could add their input.

Avantages

It has a lot of features that can offer complete customization for the needs of the business. I specifically like the modular pricing structure; allowing a business to choose what features and functions they need and not requiring that business to have to pay for what they don't. I also appreciate that they offer a non-profit discount, which is really the only reason we can afford to use the service. I've also found their customer service very responsive.

Inconvénients

I wish they had a dedicated app to make it easier for employees to access their time off and time sheets. I also wish they had some additional customization for schedules of each person to allow a better sync between time off and time sheets.

Uploading user files has to be done one at a time.

It can be a little slow to load and navigate at times. Perhaps a more integrated dashboard could be useful.

Avantages

PurelyHR is so easy to use and such a big asset to our company and employees.

Inconvénients

Really nothing it is a great product! I guess the only thing would be that I would like to see the admin have the ability to change holiday time on the timesheets manually if needed.

Avantages

Inconvénients

Avantages

I like the way we can customize the solutions according to the different labor law we have on the different offices the company has around the globe.

Inconvénients

Sometimes customizing may be a bit hard to do, but the support team is always really helpful

Avantages

A user-friendly application with flexible configuration tailored to the organization's needs. Excellent French-speaking support; good understanding of issues and attentive listening. One of the best assistances I have ever received.

Inconvénients

Vacation balances are often inaccurate. While vacation time is prorated at the beginning of employment, it is not recalculated at the end of the employment relationship. This inconsistency results in additional recalculations of the balance whenever an employee leaves. Additionally, there is no phone app available for employees to check their vacation balances.

Avantages

As a user of PurelyHR, I have found the platform to be incredibly efficient and user-friendly for managing vacation and time-off requests. PurelyHR has streamlined our time-off management, making it transparent for everyone.
