## Reviews

### "Great HR tool" — 4.0/5

> **Sophie** | *25 October 2024* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very user-friendly. Particularly like the way you book holiday / sick leave etc., and the calendar function makes it really easy to see what's happening across the business in terms of upcoming leave, anniversaries, birthdays, new starters etc. Really like the integration with Slack, which notifies us daily of absences or important events. We've also found the Reviews section really helpful for streamlining our processes.
> 
> **Cons**: Since it's a fairly new platform, there are some areas that don't feel fully built out yet, such as key places to store HR documentation, individual onboarding journeys and customisable reviews.
> 
> Overall, a really great platform for managing HR needs, especially for holiday and Reviews.

### "It's super good\!" — 5.0/5

> **Rik** | *19 April 2018* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: \* work from home tracking&#10;\* user interface&#10;\* Leave tracking&#10;\*Calender &#10;\*layout&#10;\*design&#10;\* document storage
> 
> **Cons**: That it's have not time tracking.&#13;&#10;And are no other languages, I like to see Dutch as a language option.
> 
> Better HR management

### "Make HR easy\!" — 4.0/5

> **Samantha** | *19 March 2020* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use, simple navigation, can pull customised reports, easy to add users, can add as much documentation as required for each user, easy to share information with other administrators
> 
> **Cons**: A lot of data input at the beginning to get going but ultimately worth it. Irritating that you can't see what a person has accrued to date with holiday, it only calculates the entire year. &#10;Would be great if you could alter part-time details to include hours, not just days worked.
> 
> This software is so easy to use, it's amazing. I went from manually having to manage our HR function to using Charlie HR and it's made my life so much easier. Everyone in my office finds it simple to use, which says a lot\! It compiles all the information you need with just a few clicks and it's so easy to set up new users. It's a great product, definitely recommend

### "Saves us time, money and stress" — 5.0/5

> **Matt** | *17 November 2020* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The user-friendly interface allows for the staff to easily navigate the system and put forward their reviews, holiday requests and whatever.
> 
> **Cons**: The only thing missing currently is a dedicated rota system. The calendar is great but a rota would be even better.
> 
> Charlie HR has been a fantastic addition for our company and a huge help. Their customer service is top notch and they answer any queries extremely fast.

### "Excellent HR platform - low priced, good quality" — 4.0/5

> **Mohammad** | *09 June 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The UX and UI are amazing. It is very easy to use and manage. It has been great for us specifically at the time of COVID as everyone worked from home. It has helped us a lot in managing all our employees - holidays and managing their leaves. The perks have been great and all employees have felt that they have received great perks from cinemas and even wow coins.
> 
> **Cons**: Reporting is not the best one available on the HR platform and it does not integrate with other platforms such as our finance platform XERO or DEAR.
