Criterion HCM

Great software for HR and employees

Pros

I find the course/lesson registration functionality on Criterion really convenient for company requirements. Registering for classes is a breeze, and it syncs seamlessly with my calendar. I appreciate the time management feature, which keeps track of my remaining PTO days for the year.

Cons

Personally, I perceive the UI as somewhat outdated; it has an old-fashioned appearance, but perhaps we can address that internally.

Initially, it's not very user-friendly; there are numerous features we rarely utilize. Simplification is necessary.

My experience with criterion

It's user-friendly and easy to learn. The system ensures that all information filters into the appropriate places, minimizing the need for double entry.

Buyer Beware!

Pros

Employee history is easily accessible, and the time clock feature is a definite advantage. Payroll processing is streamlined with minimal data input, and the re-hiring function is highly beneficial.

Cons

There are several issues with reports, including rounding discrepancies in payments to employees, difficulty in resolving issues promptly, and limitations in creating files for state W-2 reporting despite prior assurances. Additionally, logging into the system can be time-consuming, and obtaining reports tailored to specific benefit reporting needs is challenging. There are also complications regarding employees living and working in different states.

Good

Pros

This HR software is genuinely designed with HR professionals in mind. The separation of positions and the ability to track FTEs logically is a standout feature compared to others I've explored, where simple functions like EEO codes are tied to employee records rather than position records.

Cons

The system lacks flexible report writing features, making it cumbersome to extract data in report form.
