## Reviews

### "Loving Namely" — 5.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *November 16, 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Super easy to use, great UI, have had no issues so far
> 
> **Cons**: To be honest, I have ran into no issues so far on Namely
> 
> Amazing so far, I check my paychecks, tax info, and colleague updates all through Namely

### "Namely Review" — 3.0/5

> **Tyra** | *May 20, 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked that Namely allowed us to extract our raw data. I also liked that Namely allowed me to have good visibility into my PTO, payroll, and paystubs all in one place.
> 
> **Cons**: Namely was not the most intuitive tool to use. I'd say the UI left something to be desired. I also think they have some work to do when it comes to their partner integrations. We recently switched to a different HRIS.

### "Namely Review" — 3.0/5

> **George** | *April 16, 2025* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Good reporting for HR, easy to update and input data. Great for building and editing employee profiles.
> 
> **Cons**: Slow \&amp; doesn't have much integration with other platforms. Needs better tutorials for users. Customer service is lacking.
> 
> Namely was one of the first HRIS platforms I learned to use and while it is a decent platform for beginners, there are better options out there. It is a good platform for reporting, since it is simple to pull data and customize reports for your needs. However, it lacks usability and isn't that user friendly which can be problematic for navigation and understanding for employees.

> 
> **Cons**: Lacks internal communication features. Also, it has limited reporting and analytics functionality.
> 
> My top choice because it provides all our basic HR needs including, payroll, benefits administration, time tracking, record keeping and recruiting.
