HRLocker Reviews & Product Details

I really like the new ATS Hire hive as this allows us to advertise roles without location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I sometimes find it confusing about adding in some elements to employees profiles eg days worked - set days for different people.

I also can find it a little annoying if I forget to submit changes and move to another section I have to redo. I would like there to be a reminder to save changes before moving to a new section Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find HRLocker very helpful for my small nonprofit in Ireland, especially with uploading policy documents and staff handbooks. It's also great for managing annual leave and quickly producing reports for audits. I think it's good how you can personalize the profiles, making them as complex or simple as needed, depending on our needs. The interface is very user-friendly, and it's easy to onboard new staff. I also find HRLocker much more reasonable in terms of pricing compared to Bright HR, and the integration within our team has been smooth without any issues. The initial setup was very quick, and the HRLocker experts guided us through each step efficiently. It's been a really good program overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No dislikes all good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the nice dashboard in HRLocker where you can easily switch between staff members to see requests and allocations of annual leave. I appreciate that the interface is simple to navigate, having only a key few headers and being able to switch between dashboard views easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's not easy to log TOIL, and any changes in logs cannot be amended - even by the administrator - you have to contact the HRLocker team. The initial setup wasn't that easy, there was a bit of a learning curve in setting up reporting and approvals, plus we had lots of issues with logging time off in lieu and have since decided not to log it through HRLocker.

It is very easy to use, and simple for employees to adopt when we implemented it. It helps us manage the data of the employees and contractors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There was no issues that we found that were not handled by their good support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

HR Locker offers a clear and user-friendly interface for managing a range of HR functions including leave tracking, employee records, timesheets, and performance management. From a staff and management perspective, its accessibility and structure support day-to-day HR processes effectively and with minimal training. The platform is particularly useful for organisations seeking to formalise and centralise their HR practices in a digital format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For organisations considering HR Locker, it is strongly recommended that an IT-competent staff member or consultant be involved from the outset. This person can support the initial setup, manage data imports, and handle any technical adjustments or integrations required. With this support in place, HR Locker has the potential to be a highly functional and reliable component of a modern HR system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's the best software to move to after Microsoft Excel. Perfect for our stage. It has been easy to implement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not too much to dislike, it serves us really well for where we are. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The setup and implementation process was straight forward with guidance at every step. I like the tutorials/knowledge base section which contain step by step instructions for all features of HR Locker and are accessible to all users.

Customer Support is very efficient with just the click of a button. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are still some areas which need further development but HR Locker take all feedback on board. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, the system is user-friendly and intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a few features that could enhance usability and efficiency:

Automatic adjustment of annual leave entitlement based on an employee's length of service would be a valuable addition.

The ability to edit annual leave requests, rather than having to delete and resubmit them, would improve the user experience.

It would be helpful to have a checkbox option that allows managers to quickly grant access to all their indirect reports, rather than needing to select each employee one by one.

The Time on app has been logging users out frequently. Resolving this issue would greatly improve reliability and user satisfaction.

The EE number is not on the time on or time off tab and in the directory under summary.

And under the directory, the holidays look deceiving as it only displays the basic holidays, it does not include additional holidays based on service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clear to see who has clocked in and out and clear visibility of annual leave from a staff point of view and a management point of view. Customer service is very good and response time is very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a lot of manual intervention with HR Locker and its quite time consuming. The initial set up is extremely time consuming and could be streamlined so that there are more bulk actions. Reports don't always produce the required figures as it depends on where they are pulling the figures from (such as approved timesheets versus submitted timesheets). Ongoing issues with visual sick leave reports versus graphs - figures don’t match. Screens going black/ blank but recording clocking's. Changing annual leave entitlements is not a simple task as the dates are blocked out and you cannot amend or delete and have to get technical team to help. HR Docs, not generating email alerts to employees to sign documents. If a manager is on annual leave and you want another/ second manager to approve timesheets, you have to manually adjust approving manager in the directory under each employee and then reverse when they return from leave, it would be so much easier if you could do a bulk change or if you could allocate two managers to each employee from the beginning.

I love how intuitive HRLocker is, making it straightforward to navigate. The data storage capabilities are excellent for organizing personnel information, annual reviews, and tracking changes to salary and benefits. The 'who's off' feature is particularly useful for managing a team of 15 by preventing annual leave overlaps. The software provides new managers with tools to manage direct reports effectively, broadening their understanding of HR aspects beyond daily tasks. The fast and responsive support has consistently addressed any queries. I also appreciate supporting a national brand, and the pricing is fair and stable over the years.

{"Setting up different workdays for people is complex, requiring navigation through multiple layers, which makes it less intuitive.","Setting up the time on, time off feature feels clunky and convoluted.","The inability to change colors in the annual leave calendar makes it difficult to quickly distinguish between departments or types of leave at a glance."} Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
