A must have for global teams.
Rippling saved us tons of money by allowing us to smoothly hire people across multiple countries and take all the housekeeping tasks off our table.
Pros
For a remote team it is a live saver when it comes to payroll and devices management.
Cons
I will be nitpicking here but the UI on mobile can be better.

High Velocity HRIS
Rippling has been a great investment for our company. It has not only helped increase the velocity of our processes, but it has also helped ensure that we have complete documentation in our employee files.
Below are some areas where we have had tremendous value:
- We do a weekly payroll and each week the payroll journal entry is automatically recorded in QuickBooks Online. This has saved time from our previous system where this was done manually.
- We used to have all of our onboarding documents printed out and completed by the employee. Now all onboarding documents are completed by the employee in advance of the employee's start date.
- We have pre established workflows set up in Rippling that help ensure that all tasks are completed by the appropriate staff members in advance of the staff members first day.
- Time off requests were previously submitted via paper and they are now submitted via the Rippling app. The employee's supervisor is responsible for approving time off requests.
- We use the Rippling spend app to deploy company credit cards to our team members. Team members now receive a text message after they complete a card transaction. The team member will then text back a picture of the receipt and respond with the memo for the transaction. This has saved our team members a great deal of time, and has lead to an increase in timely and accurate expense reporting.
Overall, we couldn't be more pleased with our investment in Rippling!
Pros
Rippling has allowed our company to be much more efficient with our onboarding and offboarding processes. We now have workflows set up in Rippling that assign tasks to different team members as part of the onboarding and offboarding process. This has helped keep our team more organized and allowed them to be more efficient.
We have also been able to eliminate a lot of paper processes by moving onto Rippling. All of our onboarding documents are now completed electronically, which includes the I-9. In addition, all time off requests are submitted through Rippling as opposed to a paper time off requests with our previous system.
We also recently went made an investment in the Rippling spend app. We are very pleased with how well this has worked out for our company. Our administrative time has decreased significantly and we have better visibility into credit card transactions that are made by our card holders.
Overall, Rippling has been a great investment. It has allowed us to move towards a fully remote work environment. Our documentation is much stronger and stored in one central repository.
Cons
I really can't speak to any specific areas of Rippling that have been problematic for our team.

Charged $2,000+ in erroneous fees and 6 month in with no resolution, mining staff data for...
Unresponsive and way too expensive for the quality of services. We've been charged over $2,000 in erroneous fees for payroll errors they caused and have not fixed, despite 6+ months of multiple help tickets submitted.
Pros
Their sales team and customer service was helpful in the initial stages when they were soliciting our business. After that, things went downhill.
Cons
We've used Rippling since 2022 as an all-in-one HR and Payroll provider platform and it's been a nightmare. Their payroll system does not allow for the most basic exemptions based on certain qualifications and they've charged us over $2,000 in fees for missing tax agency accounts that we never needed to set up in the first place. We've been fighting for more than 6 months to resolve it and keep hitting a brick wall of AI response and closed cases with no actual resolution. Their customer service is abysmal once they have your money and a contract. They've also been mining our employee's profiles to soliciting their personal emails for sales pitches. Stay away.

Rippling gave a great sales pitch and seemed to be a superior product at the time. I now believe the positive reviews were inflated and paid for.Response from Rippling
Upon receiving this review, our team reached out to the customer directly. Our team confirmed with the customer and their new accountant that the exemptions were not compliant and verified that the customer is required to set up state tax agency accounts and complete filings. Our team is working directly with the customer to assist with ensuring that their accounts are set up properly and their filings are accurate and in good standing.

The best switch we ever made!
Rippling is easy to use for both the administrator and the employee. I love that Rippling is constantly looking for ways to improve their product. There are numerous integrations with other systems to make the administrative work more automated, thus keeping the admin labor costs to a minimum. We switched to Rippling after using Paylocity and we could not be happier that we made this change!
Pros
Easy to use
Smooth implementation
Lots of integrations with other programs
Cons
Cost can add up quickly when adding the various features

Best All-In-One Human Resource and Accounting Tool
Easy to use, intuitive and the support is first class!!!
Pros
As an HR Generalist, Rippling has revolutionized the way I work and manage our business. It has reduced the basic rate of "human error", increased and streamlined all onboarding procedures from first step to last, improved our overall compliance in both the fields of Accounting and Human Resource. It has given our employees an all-in-one platform where they have agency to regulate their benefits, understand their wages, easily make changes during QLE's and give them the confidence to understand their benefits, equity shares, offers and payroll. Rippling integrates into Culture Amp (our Employee Engagement software) and SLACK - But the ease of use and ease of implementation is what I like most.
Cons
Rippling needs to help foreshadow possible issues and help educate their admins so they can stop problems before they start.

- Quick access and single sign-on to Benefits, HSA, 401k account.
- Ability to split up the paycheck into 2 different bank accounts.

A worthwhile investment
Overall, a very positive experience with a system that's dramatically more usable than Paylocity and more scalable than Gusto.
Pros
Integrates with nearly every core system we have for our employees, and makes it incredibly simple to provision and deprovision licenses as part of onboarding and offboarding.
Cons
The transition from our MDM provider to theirs was a bit strained. Took months longer than everything else.

Satisfaction Across The Board
I've had a great experience from our initial consultation all the way through implementation. They truly listened to the needs of our company and built a custom solution for our HR, Payroll and benefits needs. We're ending up with a much more robust offering for the products and services we use but still saved money over our previous PEO due to the customization.
Pros
Their product offering affords much more customization that other PEO's that we visited with. Their client portal is also much more intuitive than any other solution we looked at.
Cons
I haven't ran into anything that has not been great at this point.

Biggest Issue is Pricing
The product works well and has several added value services we like all intergrated. Customer service is decent, mixed feelings on thier new AI chat bot, sometime you just need a human. Once again the bigest issue is pricing. Their list price is now $10 and comparables are $8; $2.00 per can add up fast.
Pros
The tech stack and features are awesome compaired to others.
Cons
Price increases ever year and list price has increase 25% in two years. The only reason we would leave is pricing, which this year came very close.

Very bad experience - HRIS could have been great.
Bad. Once we were about to go live with the UK payroll, I did a double check and non of the salaries were calculated correctly or suddenly changed when before correct, pensions were incorrect. So we decided last minute to block the payroll run.
I feel this HRIS has so much potential, but as many, built in and for the US and made the step to Europe way to fast.
Pros
Initially I loved that everything was connected in the HRIS which would made it very complete, take away a lot of admin work and it was pretty intuitive to use. It really seemed to be an all-in-one solution.
Cons
The whole onboarding process was an absolute disaster. Bug after bug and for every country a different onboarding manager (sometimes multiple if you also include EoR - contacts changing without being informed). In the end we were communicating with 8 (!!) different people.

Rippling: Empowering HR and Payroll
Rippling is a game changer in the world of business and they are innovative and future thinking. They ensure everything is accurate and legal with payroll and keeps us up-to-date with notifications as reminders of what we need to do. Managing employees is a streamlined process which frees up time. We recently added recruitment which will make our entire process almost work on its own. Spend Management was a true blessing and it works like a breeze. It couldn't possible be easier than it is.
Pros
After using Rippling for over a year now, I am impressed how it simplifies the daunting tasks we face with HR and Payroll. I love the integration capabilities especially with third party apps. It manages everything from onboarding to offboarding with ease. It's user friendly especially to the less tech savvy employees. The app works like a charm especially when submitting receipts.
Cons
We wanted to add on ASO but it was too expensive and they didn't offer adding on one or two levels at a time.

One stop shop for employees
We use Rippling to manage time off, learning management, approvals, employee records, onboarding, offboarding, work surveys, review cycles, benefits, and pay, among other things.
It is so nice to have a consolidated hr solution that has all of the above mentioned features, and more. For employees, it is so easy to keep track of everything hr related, whether via the web or their mobile app. Their app/website is intuitive and makes it easy to find the information you need, as well as to complete actions like surveys, trainings, signing documents, etc.
I was personally onboarded using Rippling, and it was a very seamless experience, uploading necessary documents, signing documents, and tracking progress along the way. And then it is the same system that tracks everything hr related for me. A nice one stop shop.
Pros
- Employee onboarding was fully digital/remote and very seamless
- Integration with learning management systems, like for harassment prevention training, was nice and easy to complete.
- Managing pay and benefits from the employee perspective is very intuitive.
- Review cycles are also a nice feature to formalize employee/management reviews and cadences.
Cons
In performance reviews, after that review cycle was done, I did get lost once trying to find the completed reviews. I eventually found it, but that UI wasn't as intuitive as the rest of the experience in Rippling.

Fantastic App for HR
Rippling is so easy to use. It is a modern and intuitive design that is easy to navigate for users of all levels of technical expertise. The centralized platform is great because it offers a single place to manage all aspects of HR including payroll, benefits, time tracking, onboarding, and employee data. It is also known for providing responsive and helpful assistance to users. Overall fantastic software!
Pros
User friendly interface, comprehensive HR management features, ability to automate processes, centralized platform for payroll, hiring, and benefits, and its strong global payroll capabilities, making it easy to manage employees across different locations; all while providing a smooth and intuitive experience for both administrators and employees.
Cons
Sometimes it has poor customer support, a complex onboarding process, limited third-party integrations, a slow mobile app, issues with bugs that can expose sensitive information like employee compensation, aggressive sales tactics, and concerns about the platform not always functioning as expected, particularly when it comes to complex HR needs

Rippling is a crucial vertically integrated HR stack that will streamline your operation
Rippling has been complex at times to implement but this is because one platform is handling our entire employee lifecycle process. All in all, we have faith that Rippling will continue to innovate empowering us to consolidate our entire HR stack in one place. A must for businesses that value vertically integrated efficiency.
Pros
We moved to Rippling because of the incredible depth of features across the HR employee lifecycle. Previously, we had separate tools for HRIS, performance management. This was incredibly expensive and cumbersome to run standalone tools. With Rippling, we consolidated our entire people stack into one which empowers us to increase efficiency, reduce cost and manage everything from one place.
Cons
Rippling is not the most beautiful UX/UI and can be a little jarring. We used Lattice before Rippling and the UX was beautiful. This, of course, isn't the most important thing but it was noticeable.

RIPPLING is simple and easy!
Pros
I think Rippling makes managing my HSA and benefits a lot easier. I used to go back abd forth multiple platforms just to track my HSA contributions.
I feel like Rippling make everything finally in one place. I can set up my HSA contributions, check my balance with just a few clicks - I can also use the same credentials across platforms.
Cons
One area where Rippling could improve is making customer support a bit easier to find. When I tried to reimburse my HSA once, I selected a closed bank account, and I needed help correcting it. It took me a little while to locate the support email by googling, which was frustrating in the moment. If there were a more visible support link or easy access to contact options directly in the app, it would be super helpfu!
