The features that have delivered the most value for us are the recruitment module and the career page. The recruitment module has been central to our hiring - we've filled roughly 30 roles through it over the past year, and it's the part of Bob our team relies on most day-to-day. The career page stands out for its quality on the candidate-facing side; in fact, when we recently redesigned our entire product website, we deliberately kept the career page as is because it was already working well. The recently added Employer section has also been a welcome addition, giving us more visibility on that side of HR without needing extra tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area for improvement is the AI agent, which we've found pretty unhelpful so far. We also recently ran into an issue with data retention and deleting candidates' data - it was resolved, but it's something we'd already flagged to our HiBob representative previously. Otherwise all good! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The highly customisable field options, it's been very easy to build it around how we work and operate, rather than fitting our processes to a system.

Automated onboarding flows and task lists/emails/esign also takes a huge lift away from our very small People team.

Integration to payroll and Slack is also a help for our teams in getting information to where it needs to be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The performance modules cannot be scheduled, and so require additional reminders to launch.

I'd love to be able to edit performance cycle questions and settings post-launch, if we've noticed a small mistake it's stuck there forever.

We add our contractors to Bob, but do not invite them and they are never active - yet are charged for them in the pp cost. It'd be great to look at more flexible pricing for only active users.

I find the AI feature to be a bit rudimentary so far, and so refer to external AI platforms for this feature.

The dashboards are very rigid, and we cannot always trust the data. The gender pay gap dashbaord in particular gives us a completely different figure to when we calculate off-platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use, and I can always find what I’m looking for (through search, the home page, quick actions, etc.).

As a finance user, I don’t enter information into HiBob; I mainly review it and export it. The exports are easy to customise, but they’re only as good as the data that’s been entered.

Performance has been solid, and I’ve never had any issues.

I’m not involved in pricing or onboarding, and I don’t use the AI features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

From a finance user’s perspective, there isn’t much to add. One improvement I’d like to see is a stronger audit trail for changes—similar to how you can view salary history, but available for other areas as well. Having set formats for data entry would also be helpful, although I realise this could potentially be implemented internally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about HiBob HRIS is its flexibility and ability to adapt to the company's needs. Over time, I have been able to deepen my knowledge of the platform and implement processes that have allowed us to automate tasks, improve employee experience, and increase the efficiency of the People Operations team. Additionally, I highlight the ease of use, the centralization of information, and the numerous configuration and customization possibilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like least about HiBob HRIS are some limitations in terms of automations and the flexibility of certain features. There are processes I would like to configure in a more personalized or automatic way, but currently require manual intervention. However, I value the continuous evolution of the platform and HiBob's openness to customer feedback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I had never worked with HiBob before my current role and I am really enjoying it. I use Bob every day, it is the first thing I check every morning.

When I started my role Bob was new to the company and I have loved seeing how well it has been integrated into the everyday of our jobs.

I enjoy how smooth Bob is to use a system and I feel it is mostly quite simple to navigate, so as the go-to person for HiBob issues in the company, I rarely receive any!

Learning new ways to incorporate Bob into our company has been really enjoyable I have loved receiving requests from members of our company for features and adding them in, such as sending notifications to managers when certain details are changed on an employee profile, to setting up new tasks to make something like our onboarding process run smoothly and have all emails and tasks sent out to everyone who needs them under one task, without having to manually trigger them.

Whilst overall I think HiBob is great there are some downsides.

Sometimes if you need Bob to do something quite specific or more complex this is where it can become an issue.

An example is wanting a manager and an employee to fill out the same document for a review, whilst there are ways around this it would just be great if it was a bit simpler.

Another example of this is creating repeating reminders for employees. I have had a colleague ask me to add a reminder to Bob for her to complete a task every few months however I realised this is very difficult to set up on Bob as you have to set up custom fields for dates rather than just having an option for 'every three months' or something similar.

However, Heartcore is a great addition to Bob and is so helpful to get solutions to issues like these. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thhe user experice is very good, the look and feel of the system is very nice.

It is great to have everything from a company bullentin board to holliday registration in one application.

It would be great if it could be integated to our payroll systems (Zenegy and Ripppling) to make sure that data are the same.

I raelly liked the onboarding functionality when I started as an employee aat Reform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very annoying that holiday accural in HiBob is out of sync with what is registered in our payroll systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how easy HiBob HRIS is to use, with an easy-to-the-eye UI. I like the reports and filters, including advanced filters, which help me build reports quickly. The built-in reports in HiBob HRIS are valuable for generating reports for payroll or audit purposes. The training modules in Heartcore are also helpful, especially since I just started this year.

I find it unhelpful that employees cannot add tax information directly to sync with third-party companies. For clients that don't use the payroll module fully yet, it would be so much better if we could sync that information over. It would also be helpful to have an option of adding in contractors for internal purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

After two years of using HiBob, the thing I keep coming back to is how easy it is to find what you need. Whether I'm checking someone's time off, pulling up the org chart, or running a quick report for onboarding, the navigation just makes sense. It doesn't feel like you need training to use it, you can figure most things out on your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Two things come to mind. First, reporting, it works, but the export options are pretty limited, so if you want to do anything more complex with the data you're a bit stuck. Second, the Essentials section feels like a good idea that hasn't fully landed yet. The intention is there but employees don't always find what they're looking for, which defeats the purpose.

I love the look and feel of Bob. There are so many thoughtful features and it truly is easy to use. The AI assist features help simplify tasks as well and overall it has been a great experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As far as admin rights and how granular you can get with permissions, it is lacking. The fact that full birthdates are only shown to super admins is problematic for us and has caused us to give more access than is necessary to several individuals just so they can see this one field. The only other solution was to duplicate the field and put it into a permission group which is not feasible or sustainable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like that HiBob HRIS automates what could be manual tasks, saving us a lot of time. The system is intuitive and provides flexibility, especially in creating reports, dashboards, and workflows. I appreciate that I can customize literally anything in the system. It's extremely helpful having all the data in one place, making everyday tasks easier. The setup was pretty easy and intuitive, and even though we don't use other platforms, it's nice to know it would be simple to connect datasets if needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've heard from people that use HiBob HRIS that they are not that happy with the hiring module. It's not that intuitive, and there is actually a lot of manual work there. So I feel like maybe this could be improved. Also, there are very little specific things, but I think it's something that is already on the road map to be changed.
