Customer support is fantastic\! No question they won't answer and always go above and beyond on helping\! Annual Leave tracking, Reporting \& CPD tracking is brilliant\! App is brilliant and easy too\! > > **Cons**: Nothing, they only thing they don't have that we would be interested in is a payroll feature but it's an excellent HR software. > > From start to finish, we've had an excellent experience with HR Locker\! Set up was easy and the support team were fantastic\! Our employees have commented that it was way more user friendly than our previous HR software. ----- ### "Efficient professional service for monitoring in line with compliance" — 5.0/5 > **Diarmuid** | *11 May 2020* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy of use to log working hours. Easy of use for staff to book holidays. Transparency for all staff where needed so holidays dont clash. Ability for management to produce reports accurately and easily. Support staff behind HR locker ensuring all my queries or problems are answer really quickly. (Top marks) Uploading of certificates under each staff profile. Everything is kept in one place. > > **Cons**: No App version. For our territory staff, and app would be far easier and quicker for them instead of having to log into a web based version. The format of the dates when booking holiday can be confusing especially for older staff. It would be good if you could log your hours worked in advance, for example 6 months ahead (particularly for regular office staff). And only change then if needed. > > As a modern day company, we want to ensure we are fully compliant to all regulations. HR locker was recommended to us and the system has transformed how we manage our small team of staff. Time off and time is easily recorded now and the ability to produce reports if needed is superb. From the start, the assistance from HR locker support staff (Crystel) was fantastic. From initial testing of the software right down to full installation the team at HR locker could not have been more helpful and ensured we were happy. It has transformed our time and attendance recording to being more professional and that of a modern employer. Thank you HR locker. ----- ### "HR Locker" — 2.0/5 > **Rabia** | *7 May 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: HR Locker is very user friendly as an employee. > > **Cons**: - Some of the reports were blank when generated e.g. time-on reports - The programming behind the fields is not always accruate e.g. user cancels a week's holidays, the time-off field is updated (i.e. it is cancelled and the balance is updated accordingly), however, in the time-on field, those days that were booked as holidays continue to show as the generic day time 9am - 5.30pm when the typical visible field would appear empty with no times showing. This implies that the fields in the background are not correlated in the programming. Additionally, this example does not happen each time which adds to the programmind not correlating consistently. - Despite the above, the software is very economical and therefore the expectations of accuracy and output should reflect the cost. Overall, it is a good software. > > Overall, it is a good software. It also depends on the package that Griffith College or any organisation buys. I have only worked with SAP, Ultipro, Peoplsoft prior to this. These are much more expensive and the expectation of output would be different. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] has been extremely helpful throughout and is an excellent representative for HRLocker. ----- ### "Excellent HR Tool" — 5.0/5 > **Lorraine** | *6 May 2020* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This tool is very easy to use. The majority of it is self-explanatory which is great as we have new users added each month. I love that Hirelocker is linked to HR Locker and any candidates that are hired are automatically placed in the Onboarding Office. I also like the reports section - again everything is in one place and easily accessible. > > **Cons**: I would love to see the "Time Off" section being updated to include Gmail so that when someone books annual leave in HRLocker that it updates their calendar also. I belive this is readily available for Outlook email but not Gmail as of yet. I would also like to see two additional sections in the HR Locker RTR section. Currently, it has "Goals" but I would also like to see a section for "Competencies" and "Learning \& Development Needs" - this would give a clearer picture for both the employee and the manager. > > All in all, HR Locker is an excellent tool. It is used daily in our company by each employee. It is a safe place for us to store our Policies and Procedures so that they can be signed and reviewed over and over again when required. HR Locker has some great features but one that I have to call out is their Customer Support, there is always someone available to help when it's needed and they have all gone above and beyond to help us at Spearline. I would definitely recommend this product. ----- ### "Easy to Use and Great Support" — 4.0/5 > **Hilary** | *7 May 2020* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's an easy way for employees and managers to request/approve/monitor leave. It avoids confusing spreadsheets. This is especially good for staff who's hours do not vary (ex. Salaried Staff working set hours). HR Docs makes it easy to ensure staff compliance with Essential Documents that require staff signatures. All 'HR' file information is now paperless and compliant with GDPR. Cost effective (easy to show cost/benefit given the efficiency is creates) HR Locker has reacted very quickly to the global pandemic and made very quick changes to the product that have been useful in the situation. > > **Cons**: We don't use a clock/in clock out system so the leave management isn't perfect (I have to use some workarounds). It's difficult to edit annual leave/sick leave once entered (it has to be deleted and re-entered). There are not many custom options to include/change as needed. What you see is what you get. Up until very recently, there hasn't been a lot of noticeable change to the system (PRO - over the past 4-6 months there have been several really impactful updates/changes). > > This is the 3rd organisation where I've used this software (I introduced it in all 3). It's an easy way to manage employee leave and other 'HR' details. It's easy to implement and easy to use. The team is great, they offer quick support and they are very friendly, responsive and helpful. The price is reasonable and fair for the product. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/6726/hrlocker?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/6726/hrlocker) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
