Friendly all-in-one HR software for small and mid-sized businesses.
BambooHR is an all-in-one HR platform built for small and mid-sized businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets but do not want enterprise complexity. It centralizes the employee lifecycle — a single system of record for people data, hiring and applicant tracking, onboarding, time off and attendance, and performance — with a friendly interface that HR teams and employees actually enjoy using.
The platform covers the core of HR: a searchable employee database, an applicant tracking system (ATS) for hiring, digital onboarding with e-signatures, PTO tracking and approvals, performance reviews and engagement surveys, and reporting that turns HR data into insight. Payroll and benefits administration are available (US-focused), and a marketplace of integrations connects BambooHR to the rest of your stack. It is known for ease of use and strong customer support rather than deep configurability.
BambooHR suits SMBs that want organized, modern HR without a dedicated HR operations team. Pricing is per employee per month across Core, Pro, and Elite tiers (with a flat monthly rate for very small teams) and is quote-based, so cost scales with headcount and the plan you choose.
