Kombo Reviews & Product Details

Kombo has been an exceptional partner, especially when navigating complex integration and solutioning scenarios. Their team is highly collaborative, thinks through real-world edge cases with us, and genuinely feels invested in our success. Support is unmatched - responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive. I have used competitor solutions and can really feel the difference with Kombo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are always going to be additional requests for integrations not yet supported but even when bumping into this, any implementations timelines for new additions have been accurate and appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like Kombo's team; they're great and extremely easy to work with. They're really quick in responding to new suggestions and handling tasks efficiently. The good coverage they offer for ATSs, encompassing most of the major ones, is also appreciated. Their framework is very good, and they're super knowledgeable about what's possible with each of the ATSs, which results in rarely having errors or issues. It is very quick and super easy to set up, with a seamless process thanks to their supportive team who answered all our questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I mean, the depth of their integrations—they integrate with a lot, but it would definitely be nice to have deeper abilities, more of the kind of more niche things, just generally deeper integration. So I'd say that'd be the primary thing that I'd be looking for, if anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Kombo standardizes the data from different ATS systems, which makes it easier to provide better analytics to our customers. This standardization of data, terminology, and cleanliness is a big plus for me because it allows us to add new data points easily, like cost per hire, without having to manually integrate with each ATS. Also, the initial setup was relatively easy, and the support team was very responsive, which made the process smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kombo is only able to operate within the realm of what the ATS allows it to do. Some ATSs, like Paycom, have limitations in what they can do regardless of who connects to them. It would be great to have an easy-to-find and search mechanism within Kombo to really understand what these limitations are for different ATSs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kombo has such great breadth and depth across HRIS providers. Not only do they have substantial coverage across providers, but they also consolidate performance data, groups, documents, and much more.

I've analyzed quite a few people in this space. Where Kombo stands out the most:

- Great transparency in their docs about which features/providers are in beta, closed beta, and the associated gotchas

- No gimmicks or hidden fees during the sales process. Unlike some of their competitors, Kombo didn't hit me with any surprise fees late into diligence.

- Their focus on privacy is second to none. I was able to configure scopes so that our customers have complete control over all fields that are even accessible to us. A huge deal when serving enterprise customers

- Along with column-level toggling (scopes), Kombo also provides row-level visibility, allowing our customers to pre-filter entire sets of users.

- It was extremely easy to use. I had a proof of concept in a day. They have sandbox instances where you can test against production-like instances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only area that may make their integrations even easier is having some pre-generated SDKs for the backend. Working with their API examples directly was easy though, and they provide code examples alongside the requests Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate that Kombo is well-designed and makes it simpler to set up integrations for clients. The customer service is fantastic and makes sure I never feel alone when I have any problems or questions. The pre-built integrations speed up our onboarding for new clients significantly. I also like that Kombo supports us in freeing up developer time while providing a great solution for our customers. The transparency about timelines for integration availability is another aspect I value. Plus, setting up the base product was quite easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are always integrations that may not be available, but I find them very open about timelines for implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kombo makes integrations simple and predictable.

The API is clear, well structured and easy to work with.

Documentation is solid and helps teams move fast without back-and-forth.

The team is responsive - clear communication channels - and thinks in REAL use cases, not theory.

It feels built by people who actually work with integrations every day and have already nice experience around it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing I would call a real downside.

In the future, it would be nice to explore even more of the LMS space and see integrations around document management systems.

This is more a "nice to have" than a gap. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The support from the team is second to none. The tool works perfectly for our use case Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing - so far only positive experiences Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kombo has been extremely valuable in helping us rapidly deploy numerous client integrations, saving us significant internal development work and eliminating the need for error-prone Excel file handling. The support team is highly responsive, and we encounter very few issues overall, which demonstrates their strong attention to detail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's very little to dislike about Kombo. The only potential improvements we can suggest would be expanding their HRIS coverage and possibly including integrations with performance management systems. We'd love to see these additions in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kombo has enabled us to integrate with the majority of HRIS, ATS and Payroll systems on the market with just one implementation. Our implementation was up and running in just a few days, thanks to the great documentation and OpenAPI schema.

Whenever our customers have additional attributes that are not covered by the unified API, Kombo makes it easy to extend their data model with their "custom fields" feature.

Customer support is always responsive when we encounter issues or have questions, and always give reliable estimates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As the unified API does not cover all the details we require from ATS, we still have some minor implementation efforts for integrating new systems. However, Kombo easily enables this by offering the raw remote data as well as passthrough requests to the source system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At Linestep.com, we needed a seamless way to integrate our clients' ATS systems with our own. After evaluating several providers, we chose Kombo, and it's been a decision we've never regretted.

One of the standout aspects of integrating Kombo was the exceptional collaboration with their team during the implementation process. The support we received was outstanding from the initial contact through the entire implementation journey. They went above and beyond, helping us effectively communicate the value of Kombo's unified API and integrations to our clients. This level of partnership and assistance is truly unique in my experience working with third-party providers in the ATS integration space.

Another aspect I really appreciate is Kombo's extensive integration capabilities with a wide range of ATS systems. They're very proactive in offering assistance if we need any special customizations, for instance, if a client has specific requirements. So I believe you can count on Kombo to ensure proper integration as long as the ATS provider supplies the necessary API.

All in all we can recommend combo very much and are happy that we partnered with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Kombo's unified API approach is the best in the business, it's important to note that certain limitations exist. These constraints primarily stem from the APIs exposed to Kombo / thrid party providers, which can sometimes be quite restrictive. As a result, some functionalities may not be possible despite the unified API strategy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
