"A tool to onboard your users faster"

4/5

What do you like best about Sapling?

The user interface is very intuitive. They give a lot of focus on UX, and they take feedback on this. I like their customer success team. They are very responsive and help us troubleshoot any roadblocks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sapling?

It takes a lot of time to implement new features. I have requested a few of them, and they have not been implemented yet. They follow an internal sprint process to prioritize these feature requests. However, this is something they could work better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sapling:

Sapling is a good tool for small to medium size company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sapling solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using Sapling for onboarding our newcomers and assigning tasks to different team members (like the manager, peer, or IT). We have also integrated Sapling into our HRIS and can pass information back and forth without any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi there!

We’re glad you’re enjoying Sapling’s intuitive interface and our responsive Customer Support team.

We’re continually working through requests and rolling out new product features on a regular basis. We added three new full time Product team members in the last three weeks to help us work more efficiently and continue to meet the growing needs of our customers. We look forward to releasing more new features in the coming months. Stay tuned!

"HR Generalist Review"

What do you dislike about Sapling?

One thing I do dislike about sapling is the documentation setup. I do wish I could see historical copies of documents (new hire files/etc.) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool during Covid that is now part of our tech stack"

4/5

What do you like best about Sapling?

My favorite part about Sapling is how easy it has made remote onboarding for us. It has allowed us to streamline our process and automate things that would have normally taken many more hours Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sapling?

Integrations are a little tricky. They haven't been seamless but they work for the most part. A greater focus on integrating with other HR platforms would really take Sapling to the next level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"6 months in and still the issues flow (and with little help from Sapling)"

0/5

What do you like best about Sapling?

The automated workflows are great, that's about it sadly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sapling?

The leave policies are unfriendly to Australian employers, the xero integration is problematic and when issues are raised the support received has been at best, appalling. Do not recommend Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sapling:

Don't Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sapling solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sadly, we had high hopes for the system. Due to ongoing issues, delays and inadequate support by our implementation specialist (and now his team leader) we're seriously considering moving to a different system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Marcus,

We are sorry to hear that Sapling is not meeting your expectations at this time and we appreciate you taking the time to leave your feedback. We will be making enhancements to our Time Off add-on over the second half of this year to specifically better support policies and absence management practices in the UK, Australia, and other regions outside North America. Our Service Delivery team will continue to work with you to resolve any outstanding issues you are facing with the Xero integration as your partnership is important to us.

Thanks,

"Easy to use! Good overall tool for onboarding needs"

4/5

What do you like best about Sapling?

Clean look and organized. Very helpful representation - Nick Preston. Great tool for onboarding and making sure all employees get the same experience and tasks completed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sapling?

In Workflows, when you refresh the page or add a task it loses place and you have to start over. Can we also have 20 tasks (not 10) as a permanent placeholder? Sometimes hard to find something as grayed out words don't look as though it would be an option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
