Review 2023
Pros

I appreciate that Sage HR is accessible on my mobile device, making it easy for me to view my pay slip and request annual leave.

Cons

When thinking about what I like least, nothing major comes to mind. The only thing I can think of is that the dashboard is visually overwhelming and could be simpler.

Cool HRM tool
Pros

As someone involved in implementing the solution, I can say it's a decent HRM tool. Its seamless integration with other Sage solutions and external systems is commendable. While it mostly meets expectations, sometimes customization beyond the system's capabilities is required. Overall, it's a good tool.

Cons

In my experience with the solution, there's not much to dislike.

The application being Salesforce-based makes it easy for IT staff to configure change requests, new processes, and reports.

Works if your company is in a bind
Pros

The announcement section and company view feature are great additions. Being able to see employees by face and name rather than just a list is very helpful.

Cons

Setting it up correctly was challenging, and the customer service was poor and unhelpful. Since I'm in the U.S. and they are in the U.K., they always seemed unavailable. For instance, when I needed help at 1 PM on a Thursday, I was told they were closed and to expect a response on Monday. There's only a chat bot on the screen; there's no phone number to call. If you do call, you end up being transferred around until you reach someone who says to call another number, leading you to Canada, where they say you've dialed the wrong number.

Sage HR fan
Pros

The document repository feature allows for easy document sharing with employees, which streamlines communication and document management.

Cons

I believe the workflow and functionality could be enhanced. When trying to filter by location, after updating an employee, I have to return to the main page and reapply the filter for the location. It's not a big deal for one employee, but it becomes time-consuming when updating many. Additionally, Sage HR's workflow is very generic. I can create automated notices and tasks, but can't do much with them except complete them. I have more trust in Outlook tasks because they allow progress updates along the way. You can enter information in notes, but again, it requires several steps when it could be automated.

Very simple tool for employee management
Pros

When it comes to personnel management, Sage HR works flawlessly. It allows employees to request time off, vacations, and sick days, and facilitates document sharing. Its cloud-based nature makes it efficient and scalable, tailored for small and medium-sized businesses to maximize potential.

Cons

While the user interface could be improved for a smoother experience, it's customizable. However, it lacks the ability to add two events on the same day, and meeting international rules for multinational corporations requires some effort.
