Very good with a few rough edges

Manager adoption took a term of nudging but the requests now flow through the system rather than around it.

Adding our second and third country was far easier than the first.

Cons

Pricing is premium and the renewal uplift needed a negotiation.

Finally an HRIS that treats our Middle East entities as first class

Most HR systems we evaluated clearly considered our Dubai and Riyadh offices an afterthought. Sage People localised our leave types, working weeks and document requirements per country without hacks, our Friday Saturday weekend in one entity and Saturday Sunday in another just works.

Pros

Per country configuration is genuinely per country, not a US template with the labels changed. Visa and document expiry tracking with automated reminders has kept us ahead of renewals. Org chart across all entities finally accurate.

Cons

Mobile app covers the essentials but managers want more approvals available on it. Support hours skew to UK and US time zones, afternoon tickets from us often pick up the next day.

Good bones, tiring administration

Implementation was rockier than promised and we are still tidying configuration decisions made in a hurry. The platform itself is fine.

Best HRIS decision we have made

Our US expansion would have been a second HR function in the old world. Instead it was a new entity configured over a few weeks on the same system.

HR requests are tracked queues with deadlines instead of an inbox lottery.

Cons

The performance module is solid but plain, no complaints on function, few compliments on style.

Strong HRIS for multi country teams

It does everything we scoped and more. The reason for four stars rather than five is the pace of support on complicated tickets.

Localised absence and holiday policies per country work correctly out of the gate.

A solid four stars from our HR team

Good experience overall. Implementation overran by a couple of months which coloured the first year, but the steady state is reliable and the staff like the portal.

More system than we needed

The capability is clearly there but our small HR team spends more time administering the system than we expected, and simpler tools we used before were kinder to generalists.

Grew with us without breaking

The compensation review cycle used to be six weeks of spreadsheet merging. This year it ran inside the system in a fortnight, with an audit trail.

Adding a new country entity is configuration measured in weeks, not a new implementation.

The right tool once you learn it

The platform handles our awkward cases, part timers, secondments, dual contracts, better than anything previous. Getting them configured needed partner help.
