That made our cost centre reporting very easy and accurate. > > **Cons**: It would be great if it can be linked to the Outlook Calendar\! > > We've been using Employment Hero for more than two years now. We started with one entity and then decided to move all our entities to it. The HR and Payroll platforms are very easy to navigate. We very much benefited from the Cost Centre Reporting and integrating that with our Bookkeeping software made our reporting very easy. The HR platform is our employees first point of contact to find any data about our organisation, policies and procedure, agreements... etc. On top of that most of our employees are finding it much easier to track their Leave balances and status through the mobile app. The Online Support is very quick in general and there is always a solution to any query we put through to the team, Overall, a great deal to our organisation\! ----- ### "Employment Hero - give it ago" — 4.0/5 > **Catherine** | *14 January 2025* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy system to follow and use, we have both payroll and HR > > **Cons**: Sometimes it can take a while for a query to be answered, especially when it's on the day payroll is being processed > > Generally the system and team are great, there are some instances when I have needed an urgent reply to an email, but it has taken a couple weeks for a reponse to come through. Both the HR and payroll system are easy to navigate and talk to easy other which is great\! ----- ### "Not an all in one product - you'll still need an ATS and LMS" — 3.0/5 > **Rachel** | *15 August 2024* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Swag app is very easy to use especially for our employees who don't work in front of the PC. It would be great if employees could do everything off the app. Wish it would work for the learning module. The app is not entirely comprehensive. Customer support was awesome. Now it seems harder to actually get to an actual person. You're referred to HeroAI with no way to get passed it to a real person. > > **Cons**: EH is completely let down by their learning management system which is a GO1 product. GO1 is a nightmare to use. The UI looks dated. Can't easily search for a course you've created. The reports are not useful. To get reports for multiple courses, you have to run one for each individual course. While you're creating a course and your mouse runs off the form, it completely disappears with your form. Amongst other things. The process is not user friendly. Also, the recruitment function in EH is not great so you really need an ATS on top of this. It's not intuitive. You can't preview Word documents so you really need to download every Word CV to have a look at them. Not intuitive in how you move from CV to CV. It's not a all in one system. We also use EH's sister company Employment Innovations for payroll processing. They have made multiple mistakes. When confronted the impression I get is they're always defensive. The attitude is not "No worries, we'll work together and get this sorted" but "it must be something you did". ----- ### "Growing and Learning Together" — 5.0/5 > **Susanna** | *18 September 2024* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very helpful with initial set up, outstanding customer service. Some glitches here and there but constantly growing and improving the system day by day. I also appreciate that payroll becomes a lot simpler now, especially when they want to get their payment breakdown when it comes to their salary, allowance and commissions. > > **Cons**: The flowover from the two websites and certain limitations because of the linkage of 2 websites. I would appreciate if more features were available in the app instead of just desktop/website version. > > It's been a sharp learning curve, but appreciate EH's help to educate me on how the system works, how it benefits me and how my company can cut down time and improve better time efficiency ----- ### "Highly Recommend" — 5.0/5 > **Alyssa** | *15 October 2024* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Create seamless onboarding processes for new staff, and helps cultivate better team culture and fosters more synchronicity across our ever growing team. > > **Cons**: nothing so far, the team have been really helpful > > So far so good, I have had plenty of help from the team, ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/105889/employment-hero?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/105889/employment-hero) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
