## Reviews

### "Convenient platform for managing HR, payroll, and employee onboarding" — 4.0/5

> **Sunny** | *10 May 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Rippling helped us reduce a lot of manual HR work by keeping employee onboarding, payroll, device management, and basic IT tasks in one platform. The onboarding workflow is one of the best parts because new hires can complete documents, payroll setup, and account access without multiple follow-ups from HR.&#10;&#10;The interface is modern and easy to navigate compared to older HR systems we used before. Automation features also save time, especially for recurring tasks like employee status updates, approvals, and payroll processing. We also liked the integrations with tools like Slack, Google Workspace, and Zoom because they simplified user access management.&#10;&#10;From a value-for-money perspective, it worked well for us since we did not need separate systems for every HR and IT function.
> 
> **Cons**: Some advanced workflows and settings take time to fully understand during initial setup, so there is a bit of a learning curve for admins. Reporting is good overall, but customizing reports for very specific requirements can sometimes feel limited.&#10;&#10;Customer support has generally been helpful, but response times occasionally vary depending on the issue priority. Pricing can also increase quickly when adding multiple modules.
> 
> Overall, our experience with Rippling has been positive. It made HR operations more organized and reduced the amount of repetitive admin work for both HR and IT teams. The platform is reliable for daily use, and employees found the self-service options simple enough without needing much support.&#10;&#10;There are still a few areas that could improve, mainly around advanced reporting and pricing flexibility, but overall it has been a strong solution for managing employee operations in one place.

### "A Practical Tool for Simplifying HR Operations" — 4.0/5

> **Rachel** | *29 September 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked how Rippling brings HR, payroll, and employee data together in one place. It made managing employee information and routine tasks much easier.
> 
> **Cons**: Some features took time to understand, and the initial setup felt a bit complicated for our team to install.
> 
> My overall experience was good. Rippling helped us streamline HR operations and reduced the time spent on repetitive administrative work.

### "HORRIBLE - Save yourself the time and headache and DO NOT Purchase" — 1.0/5

> **Sahar** | *27 February 2026* | Security & Investigations | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Nothing at all - worst tool to have existed in history\! Please do yourselves a favor and consider ANYTHING but Rippling - RIP pling\!
> 
> **Cons**: Rippling is extremely problematic and useless. The system creates issues unimaginable because it's set up in such an odd and illogical way. Everything breaks whenever you try to do anything. While workforce planning isn't so bad, everything else is absolutely horrible. We faced a lot of mistakes with payroll as well that we are still auditing, which has cost us countless hours and a lot of money to fix. Rippling was also supposed to help with IT, automation, and provisioning, but that doesn't work either. The setup wasn't easy, even though I wasn't directly involved.
> 
> Simply the WORST tool to have existed in the HRIS or payroll world - specially if using it outside US as well. Although even in the US their payroll was a mess - even now - months later - we are still trying to fix the problems THEY made for THEM\! Horrible\!

### "Chief Product Officer" — 5.0/5

> **James** | *12 June 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The thing I like most about Rippling is that it has allowed me to unify my HR tooling and services to a single vendor that solves problems for me from international hiring and onboarding to benefits and payroll.
> 
> **Cons**: The user interface and user experience could be improved and made more attractive. The UI and UX can sometimes be counter intuitive and confusing. Probably because they have so many features and products.
> 
> Overall Rippling has saved me time and money and I rate it very highly. My complaints are mostly cosmetic and I have learned how to user the user interface, but I would personally design it differently - I work in design.

### "Ripplling allows everything to be put in one place, however I found the menu system to be quite difficult." — 5.0/5

> **Lawrence** | *27 August 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I am pleased with how rippling brings all hr-related tasks together under one roof (payroll, time-off, etc.) and eliminates the need to use multiple separate applications. I appreciate that the application allows me to "clock-in" directly via my smartphone and view my pay stubs as well. The ability to get approval for time off quickly; and, being able to make changes to my direct deposit information through the system has greatly simplified this process.
> 
> **Cons**: Anytime there is a new version of the software released by the developers, they tend to rearrange many of the items in the menu system, but do not provide any notice to users. In addition, anytime i call customer service and ask them a question that does not appear in their general help section, it always seems to take hours to resolve. Lastly, the user is unable to customize the dashboard easily; however, the worst part of using rippling is that it becomes extremely slow when every person uses it to run payroll at the same time.
> 
> Overall, rippling makes our lives easier by eliminating the need for employees and management to perform many of their hr related functions in various ways such as: via paper documents; using multiple random applications; and/or manually entering data into 3-5 separate databases.
