Big benefit (usualy) is as well, that Personio has an ongoing development nad gets even better every month. > > **Cons**: Some "improvements" - especially in design - are not really steps forward but seem to complicate work - but usually respective suggestions are heared and drawn into account. > > Difficult. I like it\! Had some experience with Workdays in the company before and was at the beginning a kind of sad that little business has not the budget for such software. But now I am even happier because Personio not only is quiete as good - it is even better for small business purpose because it's less complex and allowes to stremline processes better for our needs. ----- ### "All-in-One HR Solution That Scales with Us" — 5.0/5 > **Polly** | *12 June 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The platform is easy to navigate with a great user experience. We love how it gives a clear overview of all colleagues across the company — it really helps us stay connected and organized. > > **Cons**: Nothing major, the newest updates in the design look good but I need to learn how to walk through it. Overall, Personio works very well for our needs. > > We’ve been using Personio for over two years and it’s been a great improvement. Before, we relied on multiple tools to cover what Personio now offers in one place. Having everything consolidated — from employee records to time off management — makes our processes much more efficient. We also appreciate how easily it integrates with other tools like our expense management software. ----- ### "So so tool for HR management" — 3.0/5 > **Yuval** | *16 July 2019* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Their new ui is a bit more appealing than before. Still not easy to find what you need. > > **Cons**: Hard to find what you need. Especially when related to documents. Response time is also lacking. ----- ### "Personio is Great" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *18 January 2026* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Personio is great value for money and the customer support is fantastic. I can manage payroll and employee management, and the learning curve is very quick > > **Cons**: I did not have any problems, that I can identify. And to be fair I had a bit of issues understanding the process automation, but I understood it quickly > > Overall this is a great product and I have no plans of changing it anytime soon. I can do all my administrative task ----- ### "A practical HR-Tool that simplifies everyday processes" — 5.0/5 > **Joshua** | *10 September 2025* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I really like about Personio is how it brings so many HR processes together in one place. Things like vacation requests, time tracking, and payroll are all much easier to handle, both for employees and for HR itself. The interface is clean and intuitive, so you don’t need a long learning curve to get started. I also appreciate the transparency it creates — I can see my vacation days, documents, and payslips anytime without having to ask HR. > > **Cons**: On the downside, some features can feel a bit slow or clunky, especially when it comes to loading times or switching between sections. Also, the reporting functions could be more flexible — sometimes you wish you had a bit more customization. And while the software covers most core processes, a few smaller workflows still have to be done manually. > > Overall, I’m very satisfied with Personio. It really makes HR processes smoother and saves a lot of time, both for me as an employee and for the company as a whole. Even though there are small areas for improvement, the positives clearly outweigh the negatives. I can definitely recommend Personio to any growing company that wants an efficient and transparent HR solution. ----- Page: 1 / 14\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/79785/personio?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/79785/personio) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
