Quick & Concise **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Matthew Earl S. | International Sales Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 12, 2018 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** It is easy to connect with colleagues and also includes some personal aspects, like sports teams, which help to break the ice at a new company. It would be interesting to see how far the personal attributes could be continued to make the application slightly more casual when desired though this would sacrifice professionalism of course. But it's great! **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** I didn't like how many things I had to fill out all at once, especially since it isn't very optimized for a mobile user. I think that if it were to be optimized for the mobile user it would be a highly beneficial application for office uses. **Recommendations to others considering Kallidus:** Very useful for inter team communication. Also useful for on boarding in that all of the required documents and tasks are plainly set before you to effectively on-board with minimal friction between the new hire and the rest of the team. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Inter team communications is very beneficial with Sapling because all of us are connected in one place. ### 2. On-boarding done right! **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Manik K. | Sales Representative, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 06, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** Furnishing and completing all the on-boarding formalities and documents was a smooth experience! Tracking attendance, commissions, performance of team-mates and leaders - smooth experience! Once you go Sapling, you won't go anywhere else! **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** The right side chat window pop-up. Blocked the screen view. Didn't have the usual close button placement. Took some time to locate and still didn't give the closure one gets on closing an application. **Recommendations to others considering Kallidus:** If you want your on-boarding done right, go for Sapling blindly. Ease of use, smooth and user friendly, quite robust this application is! **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** On-boarding. Welcoming new colleagues and staying in touch. Tracking performance, attendance and commissions. ### 3. IT IS AN EXCELLENT APPLICATION TO INCORPORATE NEW TALENTS AND GROWTH OF THE COMPANY FROM ANYWHERE. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sergio D. | Sergio Duquez, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 13, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** ITS FACILITY AND FLEXIBILITY OF DEVELOPMENT, I LOVE YOUR INTERFACE AND ITS GREAT CAPACITY TO CREATE THE PROFILES IN A SATISFACTORY WAY WITHOUT COMPLICATIONS. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** UNTIL IT DOES NOT HAVE TO SAY OF THIS APPLICATION, BECAUSE IT HAS WORKED ME IN ALL ITS FULL WITHOUT SOME INACTIVITIES, FOR ME, IT IS GREAT. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** PERMISSIBLE ALLOWANCE TO DELEGATE EMPLOYEE TASKS THROUGH THE SUBMISSION OF EMAILS RECEIVED IN REAL TIME, ALLOWING THE CONTINUOUS MONITORING OF THE ACTIVITIES ALLOCATED TO EACH WORKING TEAM QUICKLY WITHOUT LOSING TIME. ### 4. Super easy and smooth onboarding experience! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 04, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** Considering this process took place remotely it was extremely easy to understand and get through. There were very clear instructions and the interface was great as well. I allowed for me to have a quick and easy experience. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** It's honestly hard to find something I don't like but if I had to I would say that the chat window that pops up immediately when entering the sight is a bit distracting. I would be great if it was somewhere I could see it in case I needed it but not in the way. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** I haven't solved any business problems with Sapling but my on-boarding experience was better than even the ones I've had in person. ### 5. Easy onboarding with a slick interface **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Casey R. | Technical Product Manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 05, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** The sapling interface is modern and snappy and really easy to navigate. It takes onboarding-usually an arcane task steeped in outdated software and processes-and streamlines it! **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** I had to fill out a lot of the same information (ie name, address) across multiple forms through an external document signing service that my employeer linked to from Sapling. Maybe Sapling could integrate heavily with one of these services and automatically copy repeated information into the forms? **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** N/A I'm using it as an employee being onboarded, not as a company running onboarding. ### 6. So easy to use! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Shannon D. | Customer Success Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 13, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** What a great introduction to the company. It gave me insight into the history and made me feel that they were truly interested in getting to know me. And it's so organized! **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** I've only just started using it and haven't found a downside yet, but I'll update if I find anything! **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Only started using it, but it seems like it's a great asset to onboarding new employees. It keeps everything structured and you can see what you might be missing in one easy place. ### 7. Awesome and efficient onboarding process **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Samuel K. | Enterprise Program Director, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 14, 2018 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** I wish I knew about this at my old company; would have saved my team and our new employees so much time. It's great for a new hire to be able to complete all the onboarding paperwork digitally and ahead of start date so you can hit the ground running when you join. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** It looks like I have to write 40 characters so I would say that I dislike this requirement when I don't have any negative feedback to give. **Recommendations to others considering Kallidus:** Using this platform would be a huge time saver for any company and greatly improve the onboarding experience for new employees. It helps new employees feel much more connected to their new organization and builds excitement ahead of their start date in addition to getting a lot of the first week admin out of the way. The platform does this without using existing internal resources as it capitalizes on automations and removes redundancy. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** As a customer I see huge potential for this platform and can't wait to use it to help onboard my new team members. It's efficient, easy to use and helps get new employees familiar with their new organization and a little insight into their team ahead of starting. ### 8. It was simpler than anything I've ever used for onboarding **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Milan E. | Mr., Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 26, 2018 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** The entire process felt simpler and quicker than it did using paper and pencil (like with most jobs I've had in the past). It was also easier and faster than any other programs I've used. I normally don't care for the plethora of questions and information required to enter and re-enter in the onboarding process for a new job. I'm just glad it was so much faster here. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** At first, I was sure what to do. And since I was afraid to click 'sign document' for any part (because I didn't want to sign what I didn't have a chance to fill out), I tried looking around for a minute, trying to figure out if there were any other options (like entering the information before signing). When I went ahead and clicked the 'sign document' link, I realized that was the way to do all that, and then everything became easy. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Onboarding is handled with Sapling. Efficiency is the greatest benefit here. ### 9. User Friendly Onboarding Like None Other **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jesse B. | Home Services Specialist, Internet, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 25, 2018 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** This was the most seamless and helpful onboarding experience I've ever had leading up to Day 1 at a new company. I really appreciate how I was able to preemptively sign important forms and see the profiles of my teammates before I walk into orientation on my first day. I feel much more prepared to meet my coworkers face to face and that "first day at work" anxiety has been significantly reduced for me. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** I have two extremely small nitpicks related to the profile section. Firstly, the space where we input our linkedin profile url could be more functional I feel. Instead of having a static web address on the page why not make it a hyperlink? Secondly, I'd like to see a preview option for profile photos. I uploaded and saved mine only to discover it was actually blurry once I completed the initial walkthrough and went back to my profile. An alternative photo was necessary but a preview profile/photo would have allow me to discover that in the moment rather than later on. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** My company is using Sapling to streamline the onboarding process. Before stepping into the offices on Day One I feel like I've already been able to familiarize myself with my teammates, sign essential paperwork, and work on my new hire checklist. Love it! ### 10. Best Onboarding Experience - Ever! **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 11, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** I loved how much I was able to accomplish through the online portal - from paperwork to seeing who my team members are! It was easy to save things and do it when I had time. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** In the very beginning when I was just exploring Sapling, I couldn't figure out how to X out of the chat window with a member of the Sapling team. It wasn't intuitive and took a few clicks before I found a button to close/minimize that side-bar. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** I don't have any business problems being solved as I'm a new employee - but in the role, I love how much I've been able to do as part of my onboarding. It's really great to see the tasks assigned to me, pictures of the people I'm working with, and more. ### 11. Amazing interface and ease of use! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 10, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** I really love the contextual menus and how easy it is to onboard. It almost has a really clean smartphone (Android/iOS) design that makes it really visually engaging and satisfying when I complete tasks. Really easy at a glance to see what needs to be completed. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** Sometimes the chat feature can be a bit overbearing even when you are not using it, but it's not that big of a deal. **Recommendations to others considering Kallidus:** Sapling has definitely got the ease of use down, and for a lot of people (especially those who have never used technology for onboarding), that is a really big deal! **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am using this to onboard into a company so it's been helpful in that regard. It's made the transition to my new job really seamless! ### 12. Best way to do on boarding of employees **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Human Resources | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 10, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** Easy and simple way of integration.It helps in the management of the on boarding process and also the clear view way of the workflows **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** I couldn't find anything so far like that as it likely brings the efficient way of handling the employees in the on boarding process and track programs with a calender **Recommendations to others considering Kallidus:** The excellent solution to handle the employees on the on boarding process without the assistance of HR **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Helped to keep track of programs,on boarding process and attendance without the too much interaction of the HR ### 13. Best onboarding experience! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 20, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** I love the interface and the structure, it's really easy to find the sections you need. The company story is really well done and designed to teach you the essentials for starting. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** The Tasks section, which I found myself using the most often, can be made more visible. Also, in the emails I receive where I would need to complete a task, it would help if I would be redirected to the Task itself instead of browsing around the interface to find the required documentation. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Easy onboarding, nice idea with Tasks and deadline completion, getting to learn the company by browsing profiles themselves. ### 14. Easy and simple **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 13, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** Using Sapling was very straightforward and easy process. While some sites make the on boarding navigation experience a little complicated, Sapling was as easy as it gets. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** I wouldn't change anything about my experience. When looking back at my first time using Sapling, it was a very simple process that didn't necessitate any assistance. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Instead of doing all the paperwork on the first day, it was nice getting all of the standard on boarding credentials out of the way. It saved tons of time and will help me ramp up faster. ### 15. Easy to complete new hiring documents! **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** March 03, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** I was asked to complete my new hiring documents from sapling. It was super easy to use and fill all the forms that needs to be completed before first day at the company. Sapling also helped me to remind my tasks in the system and it is easy to see how many tasks are left. I also like to review and download the documents in pdf format. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** When I was filling one of my tax template I saved but did not finalize. After I came to finalize 1 day later, the system did not allow me to complete to form. I contacted with Sapling customer service but they could not help me. Then I contacted with my HR and they had to re-upload the document. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Manage to new hiring process easily and smoothly. ### 16. Sapling offered me a great on boarding experience! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Francisco E. | Product Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 21, 2018 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** I am starting a role at a company that uses Sapling for on boarding. I am happy to say that the app is easy to use and straightforward. It gives you a great sense of tasks and activities left on your on boarding checklist. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** I cannot really thing of anything I dislike. Maybe one area would be to be more compatible with Safari. I opened it on Safari and was note getting the best performance. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** The company that hired me is using the service for on boarding, and I think it works well! ### 17. Intuitive & User Friendly **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Lex J. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 04, 2018 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** Having never used a service like Sapling, I was deeply pleased by the ease of use of the platform, and even more pleased by the knowledge that I wouldn't have to worry about completing paperwork as I get settled in at a new job. Companies would greatly benefit from implementing Sapling for on-boarding procedures. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** I don't recall having any issues that would warrant disliking the platform. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Sapling allowed access to on-boarding info from home before starting the process, as well as allowed the convenience of completing paperwork prior to day one, which allows for more information and immersion into the role. ### 18. Best on-boarding experience so far! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 05, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** It was amazing to start on-boarding before my first day - to see my teammates, coworkers, build a profile, and start working on tasks to make my first day in the office easier. The navigation was easy to use and helped me feel ready to start a new job! **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** I really disliked the chat window on the side that was opened automatically for support. I couldn't figure out how to close it right away, and it was hiding some things that I was trying to find. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** I'm unaware of any business problems as I was a customer using this as a part of new hire orientation. ### 19. Smooth and Simple **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kevin B. | Principal Software Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 15, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** Most all info was presented clearly and logically, but the best part, in retrospect, was that once the initial sign-ins were complete, I got to get an immediate and quick preview about the other members of my team. This is invaluable to me as I get ready to begin! **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** Only one minor annoyance: the chat window for help from sapling obscured some of the page info, and could not be set aside for a minute -- it could only be dismissed to see the obscured content. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** It made my onboarding simple and clear, and brought me straightaway into information about the company and my colleagues as I was joining. ### 20. Seamless and attractive onboarding experience **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Design | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 14, 2019 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** The UI of Sapling is awesome.

It's informative, simple and easy to update your profile and complete your tasks and documents. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** At times, it's a little difficult to see the spaces you're able to type in. For example, if you were trying to edit your profile and you click the editing button, the background color of spaces where you're able to write in is the same as the page itself. I had a little trouble finding the spaces to write in. **Recommendations to others considering Kallidus:** Great for companies with an abundance of employees. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** N/A as this is my first day of work, but I'm sure it helps solve many issues. ### 25. Clean, Neat, and Straight-forward **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 02, 2018 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** All the information are organized in a very intuitive way and are not crowded over the screen. Also, the workflow is very clean and straight-forward to follow; mostly no confusion. Another plus is that users get to move among tabs if they have their own workflow to be efficient. All that, it is a very efficient on-boarding tool to help both HR and the new-hires. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** First of all, it may make people more comfortable how all the data are store and managed to ensure the privacy and safety. Say, and disclaimer what protection is in place to protect users ' data. Second, while user may jump around tabs by their own order. It would be helpful if there is an indicator of progress, say, percentage of completeness on each tab, so that users know how far they are in the progress. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** It makes the on-boarding process extremely streamlined and productively without too much HR involved directly. It also helps the new-hires start to learn more the company as well as the company learn them before the first day. ### 26.

It was much clearer and easier than sending several emails back and forth, and meant that I won't have to spend my first day filling out forms. I liked the step by step process and the ease of working through each step. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** I would have preferred to be easily able to save and come back to a step, or to skip a step and come back to it later. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** N/A ### 29.

Screens followed logically, no doubts or questions. Everything I would have received at an onsite orientation. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** First, I was irritated to get a web link instead of a live orientation. (Then I realized a live orientation usually takes all morning.) I really don't have any complaints. **Recommendations to others considering Kallidus:** My experience was positive.

Expeditious process **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Nathalie M. | Enterprise Account Manager, Design, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 27, 2018 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** The setup process was extremely fast, simple, and intuitive. Followed the flow, and was able to complete my profile in just a few minutes, from start to finish. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** Pages were a bit slow to load once I had completed a specific section, to the point that I thought I wasn't clicking on the next button properly, but that's the main downside, then the tool is doing pretty well! **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Create a centralized repository for our growing company, that gives new and current employees quick access to not just their teams but org charts of the organization.

Onboarding and More, Like None Other **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jonathan W. | Talent Development Specialist, Higher Education, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 23, 2018 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** Sapling originally attracted my attention because of their onboarding experience. If you are looking for an easy way to take your employee experience up a notch or two, there are no other products in the market like it. With Sapling, I have been able to easily implement an employee buddy program, eliminate paper checklists for onboarding tasks and activities, and collaborate with IT, IS, and Ops to ensure that new employees have all the resources needed to ensure success from day one. I also really enjoy the employee directory feature, where you can toggle between a list of employees and an org chart view. There are also lots of integrations with various ATS and collaboration tools, including Slack and Lever. Sapling's team is also very responsive to customer feedback, and continues to implement new features that add functionality and enhance the user experience. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** A feature that does not currently exist within Sapling is a main dashboard to manage all employees and bulk edit information. There is a dashboard to manage onboarding and offboarding, which displays all the critical information needed like title, start date, etc.. Sapling's support team is very responsive and helps me make bulk changes to employee data, but for people who are more DIY like myself building an employee dashboard with bulk edit functionality would be helpful. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Through using Sapling, my office has been able to automate onboarding, track progress of employees, and identify areas where a manager or employee may need more support. Sapling also helps employees get to know each other, and has reporting functionality so we can quickly run custom reports on employee information. ### 42. Clean and Simple Onboarding **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 04, 2018 **What do you like best about Kallidus?** The interface is clean and simple. It offers all of the functionality necessary without the superfluous. There's a lot to keep track of when starting a new job. I love knowing that nothing is falling through the cracks. I also like seeing other new hires and getting to know the team. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** We have several places where our onboarding checklists live. It would be nice to have them all in Sapling. I'm not sure why. Otherwise it's great and easy to use. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Onboarding new employees and helping the team get to know one another for first 100 days of employment. ### 43.

This was a great feature because many times you don't have any access to that information until your first day **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** I didn't like that I couldn't print out my W4 form and that was a little complicated for me. **Recommendations to others considering Kallidus:** I would add a print feature **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Sapling is used by my company to onboard new employees. I had not used it before and it is a more personalized experience which is something that is lacking on most onboarding experiences ### 45.

It's my first use so all is well. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** Compass utilizes this as part of the New Hire and Onboarding process. ### 47.

I liked the efficiency, the organization, how I could see my team beforehand and the ease of use. **What do you dislike about Kallidus?** There was honestly nothing I disliked, I think the tool is amazing. **Recommendations to others considering Kallidus:** Possibly a chat function to communicate with more of the team members. **What problems is Kallidus solving and how is that benefiting you?** The business problem is HR organization , efficiency and time. Sapling touches on all of these problems. ### 48.
