A great Human resource management tool to bring efficiency at workplace.

5.0 8 months ago

Comments: Overall, I am very satisfied with the software. It has made the HRM of our corporation more convenient & effective.

Pros:

It is a very convenient system to make the HRM more easy & effective. It helps to manage the system remotely & sync all the information instantly. The software is very easy to implement & has a great User interface.

Cons:

The software is already a great build but sometimes it becomes clumsy to manage all the data at once.

Comments: Namely HRIS, Payroll and Benefits have made such a difference. Easy to setup and use. Have worked with multiple payroll systems for over 40 years and Namely (by far) is the best and user friendly.

Pros:

We love the Onboarding, it has saved us so much time. On employee's first day, 99% is done. That's amazing.

Cons:

Con is that not all of Namely HRIS info carries over to Namely Time.

Namely is the way to go

5.0 last month New

Comments: I have been doing this job for many years using many different providers. I have found Namely to be a top notch provider.

Pros:

Product is easy to navigate and use. Customer service is top notch

Cons:

I would like to see the ability to use more complex filters for reporting. Sometimes I must download into excel to do additional filtering on the same column

Adequate product for the price

2.0 4 months ago

Comments: I personally would not partner with Namely in the future, but it worked well enough for the 1 year+ that we had it.

Pros:

We decided to go with Namely because it worked well with Germany, and we are an international company. It is unfortunately very difficult to find a product that works well in both Germany and US, since Germany is not a 1st tier country (like Spain, France, England). Germany also has very specific compliance and protocols in place. This was a number 1 feature to us, as well as the price point. Namely also had relatively simple reporting, we were always able to get what we needed.

Cons:

Performance reviews were quite bad (from both an administrative and user standpoint), no ability to plan compensation within the system, difficult to set up work flows and difficult customer service (not able to just chat with someone, needed to email and create a ticket and wait for a response), organization chart was not set up well, work flows were not as simple as they could have been (ie a workflow for managers to be involved when someone was onboarded - had to be entirely manual).

Easy integration and usage.

5.0 2 months ago New

Pros:

I liked that this was a one-stop-shop for all things HR and payroll. Functionality was easy and entire platform was intuitive.

Cons:

The price. As with anything, good service comes at a premium. At least we got what we pay for.
