Why HR teams prefer HiBob
Unmatched user experience
Bob is the award-winning HCM that both employees and HR love to use. If the whole company doesn’t use your HR tool, it may as well not exist. Workday is more cumbersome and can be confusing to navigate for employees and even for HR.
Drive company-wide adoption with a modern UI
Nurture employee engagement and foster a strong community
Spotlight your company culture and bring values to life
Flexibility as you scale
Bob’s intuitive, powerful customizations make it the perfect platform for any stage, size, and setup. Workday, on the other hand, is complex to configure and often requires many resources to maintain.
Make instant changes to workflows, org charts, and policies in a few clicks
Get a dedicated CSM allocated as your strategic partner
Make everyone a ‘Bob expert’ with an intuitive UX and UI
Get started faster
Since Bob is a modern platform, the average core HR implementation takes 60-120 days! Whether you want white-glove service or prefer to self-serve, setting up Bob is easy so that you can get to the fun part faster. Workday, on the other hand, can take up to 18 months (or longer!) to implement.
Get started in an average of 2-6 months for enterprise
Operate without the need for advanced technical knowledge
Select your own personalized implementation path

The user experience is unlike any other HR system I have used - it's easy to navigate and engaging for your business users, not just HR. The system is also constantly evolving with new features and functionality added monthly.

Our previous HR system was very limited, so we relied heavily on manual excel trackers and diary management. [T]he majority of tasks are now managed through automated flows and reports.

A million worlds ahead of previous systems we’ve used! Through its fantastic reporting functionality and analytics, it's massively helped to ensure our data is accurate at any given moment. It's provided us with more trust in our data.

HiBob has been a game-changer for me. It's straightforward to use and very intuitive. You don't need to learn how to use it. It also provides a sense of community for our global team, and the value of what you get relative to the tool's cost is exceptionally high.

HiBob is the only product I have found that can seamlessly handle w2 employees and overseas independent contractors. We can distribute and store documents, track OOO schedules, and include ICs in teambuilding and employee engagement.
