It is well equipped and effortless to deploy and manage. It makes bettering our workforce easy. > > **Cons**: No serious flaws with Sage HR. It meets needs. ----- ### "Finally a great tool for HR teams\!" — 4.0/5 > **Mathieu** | *3 March 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: There are many things to like about Sage HR: - First, the software is always updated with the latest legislation which is crucial and very helpful\! - The platform is really intuitive (which is not always the case for HR tools) - The customer service is amazing > > **Cons**: - The company owns a lot of thing on the platform (including the settings) so it's better to have an expert or someone trained who can then be the point of contact for new joiners or users for example > > I've used Sage HR in a previous experience and I had an amazing time using it. ----- ### "Good platform" — 5.0/5 > **Daniel** | *26 November 2024* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The simple but effective hr app makes it easy for employees and employers, with integrated training sections, payslips and p60s > > **Cons**: It isn’t as mobile friendly as advertised with some employees stating that payslips are difficult to read and the full payslip doesn’t show, also it doesn’t allow me to use integrated employee assistance app such as Wagestream, salary finance > > Overall the system has been good, although there are some improvements that are needed to make it more user friendly ----- ### "Sage HR: The HR System That Politely Judges You for Being Late" — 5.0/5 > **Leo** | *6 April 2026* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It does the basics very well. Booking leave is refreshingly simple, approvals are painless, and the interface is clean enough that even the least tech-inclined colleague can request annual leave without needing IT on standby. Ease of use is genuinely one of its strengths — everything feels logical, tidy, and sensibly laid out. Document management is handy too: contracts, policies, and HR bits live in one place instead of being scattered across inboxes like confidential confetti. File uploads are straightforward, storage is perfectly adequate for HR needs, and the system quietly keeps track of things you’d rather not think about, like performance reviews and absence records. > > **Cons**: Search functionality feels like it’s trying its best but hasn’t had enough coffee. You can find things, but you’ll sometimes question whether the system is gaslighting you. It’s also slightly too good at reminding you about policies, overdue tasks, and things you hoped everyone had forgotten. The notifications feel less like helpful reminders and more like gentle HR surveillance. Customer support is fine, but very much in the “please read this help article first, then have a little lie down” category. > > Sage HR is reliable, sensible, and slightly joyless — exactly what you’d expect from an HR platform. It handles leave management, employee records, and documentation efficiently without much fuss, drama, or flair. Value for money is decent because it focuses on doing core HR tasks properly rather than trying to be a flashy all-in-one super system. It’s not exciting, but then again, neither is HR paperwork. Overall, it’s the digital equivalent of a very organised filing cabinet that also sends you polite emails about your behaviour. ----- Page: 1 / 16\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/206096/sagehr?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/206096/sagehr) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | da | | | 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 | | | fi | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nb | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
