They covered every aspect clearly and if there was any confusion, the support team was incredibly responsive and knowledgeable during the implementation phase, promptly answering all my questions and ensuring I was never stuck > > **Cons**: There are some doubled up admin features between Payroll and HR. Firstly, An employee doesnt need access to both Payroll and HR platforms to view the same information. Also - when giving access to an employee to the portal it was a bit difficult to understand whether HR side needed to be used or the payroll side to effect the change. Most of the available reports are predefined, and creating custom reports needs alot of manipulation of excel sheets. > > Simple and easy to use, one stop shop for all your HR and payroll requirements. ----- ### "Good HRIS+ATS solution for SMEs" — 4.0/5 > **Marie** | *December 13, 2024* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Employment Hero offers a compelling HRIS and ATS solution that balances functionality, user-friendliness, and affordability. Its intuitive interface and robust feature set streamline HR processes. The help center provides valuable resources, and the company’s pre-built templates are handy for internal communications. > > **Cons**: The recent shift towards chatbot support has made direct communication with customer service more complicated and lengthy, and a dedicated email for tech support is still the way to go if we are to resolve issues that Admins cannot. > > Good robust system but their customer/tech support could be easier to contact ----- ### "Best Payroll Platform" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *January 18, 2026* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: i liked the learning curve, i like that my information is secured, and i can manage my employee records in one place. reporting and processing payments is super easy. > > **Cons**: I think the price might have been my only issue but it is value for money. It's just when you have limited capital to start with it is a little pricy > > My overall experience is I think this is one if the easiest payroll administrative platforms I have used ----- ### "Good - But need to improve on the Employee portal and Resume orders" — 4.0/5 > **Ketmanto** | *December 11, 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's quite revolutionary. I appreciate its authenticity and its use of AI for job searching and resume building. > > **Cons**: The employee portal appears to be malfunctioning. I submitted a leave request, but am unable to view its progress in the app; it displays only "Pending approval." I can access the details only after the request has been approved. Additionally, when submitting my resume, my work experience is not sorted correctly by year—entries from 2019 appear first, while those from 2025 are placed at the bottom. ----- ### "A good experience" — 5.0/5 > **Dana** | *February 4, 2025* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: There are so many functions for payroll and HR sites. > > **Cons**: Its not easy to cross check the terminated staff in payroll and Hr sites > > All good, and we will continue to use in the future ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/144645/employment-hero?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/software/144645/employment-hero) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
