Pre-built adapters simplify CI/CD processes but monitoring improvements are needed
If Bamboo can provide a dashboard with tool health, such as whether the master or instance has the required space, it would be beneficial. Sometimes, when I trigger a build, it ends with no space on the agent machine where the agents are installed. If Bamboo can create an internal monitoring mechanism and display the tool's health status on the landing page or homepage, it would help end users and DevOps Engineers like me.

Centralizes HR workflows and has transformed how I manage performance and daily tasks
Regarding Keka Performance's AI capabilities, its accuracy and reliability of output are good. Time-to-time trainings have been provided by the Keka team, and Keka conducts big seminars that share updates to our HR, which are then conveyed to us. Keka Performance has positively impacted my organization because initially, we had a manual HR process through a very small platform, and after launching Keka to our company, it has been a very smooth process for us and the process has also been escalated. The process became smoother with Keka Performance mainly because I have saved time. Initially, the platform we used had many manual questions that needed to be written manually, and one-to-one meetings went for long. However, with objectives and performance metrics, and the answers given by the employee, it is very easy for us to manage the performance cycle along with our tasks. The part of Keka Performance cycle I find most valuable is that we add objectives to our performances, and equal weightage or respective weightage has been assigned to each objective, which can be updated on a daily or weekly basis. Performances are usually monitored by the end of the quarter, and I think that is the best part.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The HR metrics that this solution provides has been most useful. We also really like the fact that employees have the ability to be self sufficient and manage their own information."
"BambooHR is accessible to users who aren't good with technology. If you don't have an IT background, you can easily find information about any employee."
"The BambooHR system makes it a lot faster for me to review and follow-up with candidates and it saves me time from having to print or distribute candidates that need to be reviewed with executives."
"We previously used People HR, but it was not user-friendly, very slow, and we had a lot of issues, and BambooHR is a very good program and user-friendly."
"Honestly, all of the features are valuable to me."
"We use this solution for our end to end HR needs from onboarding and hiring to learning."
"I would advise others to implement it as it is a very helpful people management tool."
"It is a great HR product for your business."
"The interface is good."
"My advice for others looking into using Keka Performance is that if anyone is looking for a platform that has all the capabilities, whether it be performance, HR, or admin, Keka Performance is an all-in-one platform."
 

Cons

"It would be useful to have the possibility to assign a task to the different users within the software."
"There are some issues with the job tab under my info where you add the salary."
"It would be good to include more options for approvals and workflows. They are deliberately not the most sophisticated version of anything that they do, but it is like 80/20. They hit the vast majority of all the needs, but I have started to run up against the limits of their functionality. It has forced me to start paying attention to the marketplace or sending feedback to BambooHR. Clients are still happy though. Timesheets is a new area in which they're slowly expanding. It is currently very limited, but it meets the needs of standard nine-to-five salary employees who just want to be able to key in their time, have it approved, and then pushed off to payroll. It does not have any of the bells and whistles that an hourly employee or hourly worker might need. That is one area that is currently limited, but they have integrations with some of the best companies that do that."
"However, if we compare the accrual balance days from Bamboo versus real days, sometimes we have to reconcile it by manual adjustment."
"BambooHR needs to have more flexibility around performance management."
"The color palettes could be changed to make the solution a little more attractive and easier to use."
"Sometimes, the email alerts act funny and do not show up."
"Specifically, I work for 2 managers. In my profile, our administrator wasn’t able to add 2 managers."
"I think Keka Performance can be improved by adding a live chatbot to it, which would be useful when someone new is using Keka Performance."
"The solution must provide project or task management features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It was definitely cheaper than some of the larger systems."
"I rate the tool's pricing an eight out of ten."
"Price-wise, the solution is in the middle compared to other tools offering similar functionalities."
"We pay a monthly subscription to use the solution. The subscript model is based on how many employees we have active."
"It would be good if the product were cheaper."
