id=\"bamboohr_plans_pricing\">BambooHR Plans &amp; Pricing<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When I carried out my BambooHR review, I found the pricing system quite convoluted. Pricing is all <strong>quote-based<\/strong>, but to receive a quote, you have to fill out a form on the pricing page.<\/p>\n<p>Your only options here are selecting your employee count and the country your business is located in. You don&rsquo;t get to specify any additional features you&rsquo;d like in your subscription, which can make the initial quote inaccurate.<\/p>\n<p>What I recommend instead is scheduling a demo of the platform and then talking to BambooHR&rsquo;s sales team to get a rough estimate. After you have an idea of the platform&rsquo;s monthly cost per employee, you can start a <strong>free seven-day trial<\/strong> to test it in practice before committing to a monthly subscription.<\/p>\n<p>Note that for companies with fewer than 25 employees, BambooHR charges a flat monthly rate, which typically ranges from $7 to $15 per month per employee.<\/p>\n<p>BambooHR offers two distinct pricing plans:<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-table su-table-responsive su-table-alternate\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Plan<\/th>\n<th>Features<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Core<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Employee data, Custom reporting, Applicant Tracking System (ATS), Onboarding, E-signatures, Employee surveys, Time-off management, and Benefits tracking<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Pro<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Everything in Core + Performance management and Centralized employee community (with a Slack integration)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>You can get additional features in BambooHR as standalone modules, but each will change the price of your monthly plan.

This way, you can choose what functionalities you need and avoid paying for features you don&rsquo;t plan on using. I tested and evaluated the platform&rsquo;s key features.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Hiring and Onboarding<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-144251\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Onboarding.jpg\" alt=\"BambooHR's hiring and onboarding features\" width=\"800\" height=\"578\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Onboarding.jpg 1230w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Onboarding-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Onboarding-1024x739.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Onboarding-768x554.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Onboarding-1200x866.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>BambooHR offers a solid <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/hr\/best-applicant-tracking-system-for-small-business\">applicant tracking system<\/a> that streamlines everything in your hiring process. From job posting to employee onboarding, the system offers a seamless journey. I loved how I could easily include HR leaders and hiring managers in the process to share thoughts on each candidate.<\/p>\n<p>The system allows you to score every candidate against the core competencies and skills required for the job. Your team can even leave comments on their profile, which other people involved in recruiting can access.<\/p>\n<p>You can flag candidates with strong resum&eacute;s, particular skills, or specific experience, letting you easily filter through your candidate pool and engage with the most qualified people faster.<\/p>\n<p>As for employee onboarding, hiring managers can create customized onboarding packages, which new hires can access on the BambooHR platform.<\/p>\n<p>In this handy setup, you can outline key onboarding tasks, introduce new hires to their colleagues, and ensure they have access to all the key documents, apps, and tools you&rsquo;re using.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Time Tracking and Payroll Services<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-144253\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Payroll.jpg\" alt=\"BambooHR's payroll services\" width=\"800\" height=\"705\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Payroll.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Payroll-300x264.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Payroll-1024x902.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Payroll-768x677.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Payroll-1536x1354.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/BambooHR-Payroll-1200x1058.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>Although these are two separate modules, I found that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/hr\/best-time-tracking-software\">time tracking<\/a> and payroll sit well together in BambooHR&rsquo;s offering. Your <strong>team members can easily clock in and out<\/strong> from their desktop or mobile devices, and the software will automatically log their hours worked. The software also <strong>automatically calculates overtime hours<\/strong> and takes holidays and PTO into consideration.<\/p>\n<p>Your HR leaders and department heads can review and edit automated employee timesheets, which include valuable data on each team member&rsquo;s hours spent on specific projects. Having quick and easy access to timesheets also dramatically reduces the time required to complete accurate payroll runs.<\/p>\n<p>You&rsquo;ll also appreciate having the freedom to create flexible payment schedules and choose preferred payment methods. What&rsquo;s more, the platform <strong>handles federal and state tax filing<\/strong> on your behalf, reducing the chances of costly errors.<\/p>\n<p>The only problem is that the payroll add-on is <strong>only available to US employees.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Employee Benefits Administration<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>BambooHR lets you easily create and manage benefits packages, develop enrollment windows, and review and approve employee selections. I really liked how you can use the same dashboard to edit coverage levels and effective dates, as well as change the rates.<\/p>\n<p>The benefits administration module includes an employee self-service dashboard too. This means they can enroll in and review benefits plans from the same dashboard they use to request time off and manage personal information.<\/p>\n<p>If your company is creating benefits packages for the first time, BambooHR offers an ever-growing list of providers (or carriers) to choose from. By automatically sending them all the required employee data, it also streamlines and fast-tracks the process.<\/p>\n<p>You can connect your existing benefits carriers to BambooHR if you&rsquo;d prefer to continue using the current package your company is offering.<\/p>\n<p>One crucial thing to note is that <strong>only US-based employees<\/strong> will be able to make use of the benefits administration feature.<\/p>\n<p>Again, this means BambooHR isn&rsquo;t a great fit for remote and hybrid companies that employ international workers. For that purpose, we&rsquo;d suggest Rippling and Deel as alternatives.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Performance Management<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>I tested the features of their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/hr\/best-performance-management-software\">performance management software<\/a> and found excellent results. With these tools, you can <strong>conduct 360-degree employee assessments<\/strong>, ensure alignment between managers and workers, and create and monitor measurable goals.<\/p>\n<p>BambooHR also features automated reminders, giving employees and managers enough time to prepare for performance reviews. I was impressed to see that the process is fully customizable &ndash; you can even create flexible schedules to ensure workflow won&rsquo;t be disrupted by these 1-on-1 meetings.<\/p>\n<p>Managers will have access to notes from previous reviews, as well as feedback from the employee&rsquo;s peers and their direct reports. This makes the platform easy for self-service, without the need for someone in the HR team to facilitate this sort of information handling.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-button-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/visit\/bamboohr\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-flat\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#0070e0;border-color:#005ab4;border-radius:10px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:0px 26px;font-size:20px;line-height:40px;border-color:#4d9bea;border-radius:10px;text-shadow:none\"> Try BambooHR Now<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<h2><span id=\"bamboohr_integrations\">&nbsp;BambooHR Integrations<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>BambooHR has over 120 integrations, ranging from ATSs and communication tools to time tracking and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/hr\/best-learning-management-systems-lms\">LMS solutions<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the most popular <strong>integrations on the BambooHR platform include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Slack<\/li>\n<li>15Five<\/li>\n<li>Deel<\/li>\n<li>Lattice<\/li>\n<li>TalentLMS<\/li>\n<li>Assembly<\/li>\n<li>Litmos<\/li>\n<li>Kudos<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Unfortunately, for some organizations, BambooHR doesn&rsquo;t integrate with project management tools like Jira, Trello, and Asana.<\/p>\n<p>In this case, the only options are to contend with duplicate data entry or rely on the internal Project Tracking feature to manage projects and tasks.

The platform is user-friendly for the employer and employee. As an HR professional, I can complete onboarding, run reports and set up time off policies within a few short minutes.

As it&rsquo;s easy to integrate with your existing software stack, you won&rsquo;t have to worry about duplicate data entry or discrepancies.<\/li>\n<li><strong>High-quality features &ndash; <\/strong>Identify and hire top candidates, do applicant tracking, track attendance, monitor performance, and create and distribute employee benefits packages. On the administrative side of things, you can also fast-track payroll runs and simplify HR data and reporting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When I carried out my BambooHR review, I did find that it fell short in terms of skills development, given that it doesn&rsquo;t include a learning management system. Another shortcoming is that its benefits and payroll functionalities are only available for US employees, making it unsuitable for companies with international workers.<\/p>\n<p>After taking my BambooHR review into account, you might think an alternative type of software would be a better fit for your business.

Both cover all the basics, including hiring and onboarding employees, payroll services, benefits administration, time tracking, applicant tracking, and performance management.<\/p>\n<p>BambooHR and Rippling differ in their capacity for company size and location. We found that <strong>BambooHR suits US-based SMBs<\/strong>, as its payroll and employee benefits are strictly tied to US workers. In comparison, <strong>Rippling is a much better option for larger hybrid or remote companies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>It offers global payroll, employment, compliance, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/hr\/employer-of-record-services\">Employer of Record (EOR) services<\/a>. However, the simplicity of BambooHR, making it easier for self-service, might sway larger US companies to use the platform too. You can read our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/hr\/rippling-review\">Rippling review<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>BambooHR vs. Deel<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If your company has fewer than 200 employees, <strong>Deel offers its core Deel HR package for free<\/strong> &ndash; this is a huge advantage over BambooHR. On the other hand, BambooHR only offers a free trial for seven days.<\/p>\n<p>Even for companies with fewer than 20 employees, BambooHR also charges a flat monthly rate, which ranges from $7 to $15 per month per employee.<\/p>\n<p>That said, when it comes to hiring, <strong>Deel focuses solely on international contractors and full-time employees<\/strong>. This makes BambooHR a much better option for companies hiring workers within the US. It&rsquo;s very effective for facilitating job postings, plus its built-in ATS offers a full range of features for hiring managers.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>BambooHR vs. SageHR<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When comparing these two platforms, the main difference is the work environments they&rsquo;re suited to. <strong>SageHR is primarily geared toward SMBs that work on site<\/strong>. Its core functionalities revolve around shift scheduling, expense tracking, PTO, and performance management.<\/p>\n<p>BambooHR, on the other hand, is a better-suited HRIS for small businesses providing digital services within a hybrid or remote environment (albeit in the US). With BambooHR, employees can easily clock in and out from their desktop or mobile devices &ndash; the platform automatically tracks all hours worked.<\/p>\n<p>This sort of data, along with timesheets, is much more useful for digital workforces compared to what SageHR can offer.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-button-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/visit\/bamboohr\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-flat\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#0070e0;border-color:#005ab4;border-radius:10px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:0px 26px;font-size:20px;line-height:40px;border-color:#4d9bea;border-radius:10px;text-shadow:none\"> Try BambooHR Now<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<p><span><section class=\"expert-team-section methodology_sec\">\r\n <div class=\"container\"><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"verdict-box-heading\">Methodology<\/div><div class=\"expert-top-text\"><h2>How We Review And Test HR Products<\/h2><p>To provide our readers with accurate and well-informed recommendations, we test the most popular HR products on the market to find the best options for you.

This will help you ensure that it&rsquo;s the right fit for your organization:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Type of HR software<\/strong> &ndash; As you&rsquo;ve seen throughout my BambooHR review, some HR management software is better suited for local SMBs, while others are geared towards enterprises with a large international workforce. Features and functionalities should align with your business and budget needs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Essential HR features <\/strong>&ndash; Carefully check what standard features your chosen HR management platform offers, like a company calendar, manager resources, customer support, and background checks. Compare the same features on different pricing plans and check the software&rsquo;s level of customization.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pricing<\/strong> &ndash; Once you&rsquo;ve determined your monthly budget, compare different pricing plans to find the most cost-effective HR software option. Bear in mind that you might need to contact their team to create a custom, quote-based pricing solution, like with BambooHR.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ease of use<\/strong> &ndash; HR management solutions differ in terms of complexity, so it&rsquo;s important to find the right balance between the number of features and the usability of the platform. You don&rsquo;t want self-service HR software to be too difficult to use for your team, but you shouldn&rsquo;t opt for a bare-bones solution that lacks key features, either.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Integrations<\/strong> &ndash; If you&rsquo;re already using certain apps, make sure they appear in the list of integrations unless you&rsquo;re willing to make a switch to different apps. Some HR management platforms offer an Application Programming Interface (API), which would allow you to integrate it with almost any application.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Customer support<\/strong> &ndash; Check the contact methods and working hours for customer service phone support. It&rsquo;s best to opt for a provider with in-house customer service phone support, especially if they provide a dedicated support representative to your account.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"su-button-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/visit\/bamboohr\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-flat\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#0070e0;border-color:#005ab4;border-radius:10px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:0px 26px;font-size:20px;line-height:40px;border-color:#4d9bea;border-radius:10px;text-shadow:none\"> Try BambooHR Now<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<h2><span id=\"faqs\">FAQs<\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"man_faq_sec\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/FAQPage\"><section class=\"ms_faq ms_card \"><div itemscope itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\"><div class=\"accordionButton\"><h3 itemprop=\"name\">Is BambooHR safe?<\/h3> <\/div>\n<div class=\"accordionContent\" itemscope itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\" style=\"display:none;\"><p itemprop=\"text\">Yes, BambooHR is safe to use.
