"Cost-Effective HR Solution"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Access PeopleHR?

I use Access PeopleHR for its HRIS features to help onboard and manage our teams efficiently. I like that it provides us with one central location to track onboarding processes, ensuring a single source of truth for our team members. The software is very cost-efficient, and it has allowed us to integrate all of our team into one simple system with relative ease. I appreciate the good pricing and how the holiday accruals work smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Access PeopleHR?

I think the implementation support was a little brief which made rollout a little more complicated. Also, we cannot track multiple rates for hourly employees. We just needed more face time during implementation, and I would like to be able to track multiple hourly rates for employees and have them link to Paycircle, their payroll tool, better. The initial setup was challenging due to the lack of implementation support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Taryn Schutzler of Access PeopleHR

Thanks for your feedback, Ethan. It’s great to hear PeopleHR is helping you bring everything into one central place, especially for onboarding and maintaining a single source of truth across your team. It’s also good to know the system has been easy to roll out overall and that features like holiday accrual are working smoothly.

We appreciate your honest comments around implementation support and functionality for hourly rates. It’s clear that more hands-on support during rollout would have made a difference, and your feedback on tracking multiple rates and integration with payroll is really valuable.

It’s encouraging to hear that overall the system is delivering a cost-effective and efficient way to manage your HR processes.

"Streamlined HR Processes with Access PeopleHR"
4/5
What do you like best about Access PeopleHR?

I really appreciate how Access PeopleHR makes it easy to have everything in one place, which shaves off a lot of manual admin time. I find it quite straightforward and easy to use. We considered using Hibob but found it too expensive and not necessary for our needs. I personally like the AI assistant. The initial setup was very easy, thanks to an onboarding consultant, and the recorded training was worthwhile despite taking a few hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Access PeopleHR?

Maybe the interface can be improved a bit. For example, HiBob is very interactive looking. The colors of the interface can be adjusted to make it really clear where each section is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Taryn Schutzler of Access PeopleHR

Thanks for your feedback. It’s great to hear the integrations with payroll and LMS support a smooth HR workflow and onboarding. Your point on the interface is really helpful and aligns with our ongoing UX modernisation. You can follow updates via our PeopleHR roadmap hub.

"Organized Solution with Room for UI Improvement"
2.5/5
What do you like best about Access PeopleHR?

I use Access PeopleHR to keep employee records organized and updated, making tracking job changes like promotions, salary updates, and reassignments smooth. I appreciate how it helps keep everything in one place, which makes it easy for me to find and update whatever is needed and keeps processes organized. I find the document storage feature great for keeping things in one place and organized. I also really like the tracking feature because it makes researching information a lot faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Access PeopleHR?

I wish it had a more user friendly interface. Some areas feel really outdated. It could also use smoother navigation between sections so there's no need for endless clicking. It's a bit more cluttered compared to other HRIS systems. Some menus aren't clearly labeled, and if you're not familiar with the system it can make it easy to get lost and take more time to get what you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Taryn Schutzler of Access PeopleHR

Thanks for your feedback, Jocelyn. It’s great to hear how you’re using PeopleHR to keep employee records organised and track changes like promotions and salary updates, having everything in one place really does make a difference. I’m glad the document storage and tracking features are helping you work more efficiently too.

I completely understand your points around the interface and navigation. If it takes extra clicks or feels cluttered, it can slow things down, especially for new users. That’s really valuable feedback as we continue working on improving the overall experience.

If you’d be happy to share a bit more on what would make navigation smoother for you, I’d love to hear it, feel free to reach out to me at taryn.schutzler@theaccessgroup.com
