Those templates save a lot of time and research. > > **Cons**: Maybe the integration part? We cant integrate the HRdownloads to the EDM tool that we are currently using. > > HRdownloads is very useful especially if you need a template or get an idea on how to create something for HR purposes. ----- ### "Trusted & helpful HR Solution" — 5.0/5 > **Miranda** | *19 February 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The user interface is simple and easy to navigate. I appreciate being able to assign a bundle of training videos to staff instead of individually. I also like the monthly summary email that shows all of the work anniversaries and appreciate the compliance notifications. Overall a very helpful HR system. > > **Cons**: I have no complaints. They are always working to improve and I have seen the improvements over the years. ----- ### "Good product for the prices but AI impacting it's base business model" — 4.0/5 > **David** | *15 March 2025* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: The program is easy to use and has many policies and procedures. > > **Cons**: Their search feature is difficult to find the documentation/resources required. > > Good product, Their standard product though with AI technology is becoming redundant as you can search for many similar policies on Co-pilot, Chat GPT, etc. ----- ### "Great System" — 4.0/5 > **Lisa** | *15 January 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Customer Support, willingness to provide guidance and answer questions promptly. Even though it sometimes required multiple points of contact. > > **Cons**: There is no detailed plan outlining the steps required for implementation While there are many email communications, there is no central handbook or reference guide. In addition, having many staff members specialised in different areas often results in a high volume of calls. > > Great, user friendly system and quick turnaround on any issues/support. Overall, it’s been a strong experience. ----- ### "Excellent platform for HR" — 5.0/5 > **Laura** | *9 December 2024* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the updates with legislation; tracking assignments and compliance for employees; courses offered > > **Cons**: time management just isn't there for me yet. > > Very reliable and effective HR system for day to day operations. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/387394/hrdrive?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/387394/hrdrive) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
