  • Users say that WorkBright stands out for its onboarding capabilities, with feedback highlighting its user-friendly interface. Many find it very easy to use, which significantly simplifies the onboarding process for new hires.
  • According to verified reviews, BambooHR has a more robust implementation process, with users noting the intuitive onboarding wizard that helps them get started quickly. This contrasts with WorkBright, which has received mixed feedback regarding its setup experience.
  • Reviewers mention that while WorkBright offers excellent support, particularly for compliance-related queries, BambooHR also provides solid support but may not match the immediacy and responsiveness that some users experience with WorkBright's dedicated representatives.
  • G2 reviewers highlight that BambooHR's ease of use is commendable, with features like clocking in/out and confirming timesheets being particularly appreciated. However, WorkBright users report an even higher ease of use, claiming it has made their jobs significantly easier.
