Offers a certain level of simplicity with the whole package and intutive
We used Payworks. Payworks is designed strictly for payroll. It's not really meant to be an HRIS tool because it doesn't allow for an employee profile, for example. You can't manage a lot of employee information, track training, recruitment, or any of that stuff. They've added an applicant tracking module, but it's still very basic. So adding BambooHR was very complementary to having it covered. The only problem was the two systems didn't talk to each other. It was a bit of a hassle for us to maintain the two systems, going back and forth and making sure the data was centralized when we made changes.
