Customer support, on-boarding, payroll and the overall HR platform is the best on the market. ----- ### "Employment Hero - give it ago" — 4.0/5 > **Catherine** | *14 January 2025* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy system to follow and use, we have both payroll and HR > > **Cons**: Sometimes it can take a while for a query to be answered, especially when it's on the day payroll is being processed > > Generally the system and team are great, there are some instances when I have needed an urgent reply to an email, but it has taken a couple weeks for a reponse to come through. Both the HR and payroll system are easy to navigate and talk to easy other which is great\! ----- ### "Good - But need to improve on the Employee portal and Resume orders" — 4.0/5 > **Ketmanto** | *11 December 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's quite revolutionary. I appreciate its authenticity and its use of AI for job searching and resume building. > > **Cons**: The employee portal appears to be malfunctioning. I submitted a leave request, but am unable to view its progress in the app; it displays only "Pending approval." I can access the details only after the request has been approved. Additionally, when submitting my resume, my work experience is not sorted correctly by year—entries from 2019 appear first, while those from 2025 are placed at the bottom. ----- ### "Better than your run-of-the-mill HRIS" — 5.0/5 > **Shell** | *13 December 2024* | Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The absolute ease in using the interface. Everything is clearly labelled and even if you land on the wrong page, it is super easy to figure out where to go. But what I truly liked most is having pre-made templates (HR Documents and Policies for AU and NZ) especially as I work across both countries. Not having to reinvent the wheel was incredibly helpful, but they also allow us the freedom to clone and tweak to tailor it for our business. > > **Cons**: Some features I wish had more flexibility, for example, having a track record/history for hours of work (to see a staff's work hour pattern across their tenure), however I have been informed that this may be updated early next year which is fantastic. The cons I have are not dealbreakers, but they're centred around just overall more flexibility with formatting (ability to right click on any hyperlinks or buttons) and improving the document template customisation tool. > > Overall, as per the the title, EH is comparatively better than other standard HRIS and less clunky. I have used a few other CRMs and HRIS' over the last 8 years and EH has been my favourite. While of course nothing is perfect, EH is also very customer/client-focused and open to feedback, in which I have seen features be changed and updated over the past 7 months since using this HRIS. ----- ### "A good experience" — 5.0/5 > **Dana** | *4 February 2025* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: There are so many functions for payroll and HR sites. > > **Cons**: Its not easy to cross check the terminated staff in payroll and Hr sites > > All good, and we will continue to use in the future ----- Page: 1 / 11\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/144645/employment-hero?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/144645/employment-hero) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
