BambooHR

BambooHR is a cloud-based human resources information system (HRIS) and applicant tracking system (ATS) designed for small and mid-sized businesses. The platform centralizes employee data, automates core HR tasks, and provides self-service tools for employees and managers. It emphasizes ease of use and quick setup, enabling organizations to manage onboarding, records, time-off requests, payroll integration, and reporting from a single interface.

Key features include a centralized employee database with customizable fields, applicant tracking and onboarding workflows, time-off and attendance tracking, performance management and reviews, benefits and compensation management, document storage, e-signatures, and mobile access. BambooHR also offers reporting and analytics, HR workflows, and integrations with payroll providers, time-tracking tools, and other business software through an API and pre-built connectors.

BambooHR is marketed to small and mid-sized organizations across various sectors and regions. It supports multi-user roles with access controls, data privacy features, and a focus on user-friendly interfaces. The platform is delivered as a cloud subscription with options for professional services and customer support.

The company was founded in the late 2000s in Utah and has since grown its customer base worldwide. It operates as a private company focused on HR software for growing businesses.

BambooHR is commonly praised for its intuitive design and fast deployment, though some users report limitations in payroll functionality for certain regions and highly complex enterprise needs. It is frequently used as a core HR hub for onboarding, employee data management, and standard HR workflows.
