## Reviews

### "Good Value solution" — 5.0/5

> **John** | *23 August 2022* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Good value and easy to use package that helps us update contracts and staff handbooks
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes the output as PDF is not as well laid out as it could be but the content is good
> 
> Keeping up to date with changes in employment legislation is challenging and this software helps us to achieve this.

### "My experience" — 5.0/5

> **Elaine** | *19 January 2022* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The holiday and absence section are so impressive.  We have found the staff and helpline are very informative and helpful.  They make some hard jobs easier
> 
> **Cons**: My only problem is that when doing rotas they are weekly where as I would need a rota that can go from the 1st to the 31st of the month.
> 
> We have been dealing with some bullying and when I asked for help I got a detailed response and templates for letters and posters. 5 star assistance

### "A good way to keep track of compliance" — 4.0/5

> **Virginie** | *20 January 2022* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As our company contracts can be very similar to each others Bright Contract allows us to repeat the same type of contract only changing small parts if needed. &#10;The fact that the system alerts us if a new policy might need to be integrated in the handbook is one of the best feature of this software. Bright Contract helps us to stay compliant at all times.&#10;Overall a very good software that I would recommend.
> 
> **Cons**: The system does not allow to archive former employees but one has to delete the contract from their system if they don't want to have a long list of employees. &#10;Sometimes the system needs to be rebooted a couple of time before working correctly i.e. not all contracts appear or the handbook don't show fully. &#10;Last thing, if the alert to new policy for the handbook is very appreciated and allows us to stay up to date with compliance, it is not always straight forward in the presentation of the system that there is a update. It would be great also to include an email notification as one does not always to logon onto the system.

### "Contracts for a fraction of the price" — 4.0/5

> **Sam** | *24 August 2022* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It allows me to provide contracts for my payroll clients at a fraction of the price that a HR professional would charge. It has quite a few customisable options, and means that I can offer added services to my clients and generate extra revenue.
> 
> **Cons**: The section about giving notice for absences is worded a bit strangely and sometimes I have to manually edit this with a pdf to Word editor which is a bit annoying. The option to manually edit would be good, or to export in a Word document where I could edit it. Sometimes importing employees doesn't work and it crashes the software. Being able to import companies would also be good.
> 
> It's a great add on piece of software for my payroll bureauy.

-----

### "Simplicity" — 5.0/5

> **Margaret** | *19 January 2022* | Fishery | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This software is very easy to navigate and gives plenty tips on what to do.  I feel that is an essential quality.
> 
> **Cons**: So far I have not encountered any major problems.
> 
> I have been very pleased with the price of Bright Contracts and recently needed some further advice and received this promptly which to me is a must when you are dealing with the needs of Employees.
