“Legacy HRIS solutions have the functionality, but miss the mark on culture. They can scale, but they can’t flex. There’s nothing configurable here, not without a coding certification. Modern competitors boast user-friendly functions, but don’t know how to scale. They like to talk a big game when it comes to culture, but employees aren’t logging in daily to be a part of what they have to offer.

Bob is the only platform that does both. Modern interface + enterprise scalability”.

Work is changing, and the way companies manage people has to change, too. The last thing an HR leader needs is an HRIS that adds to their already complicated work life.

  • Systems that don’t talk to one another
  • Spotty access to data, even when they need it most
  • Tough questions that need quick answers, based on good reporting
  • Hours of admin work spent on complicated tech (that ought to be working for them)

Without strategic data and a well-functioning tech stack, how is an HR team supposed to do all the stuff that makes their job sing? Like launching employee initiatives and setting their sights on what’s next for the business?

To get there, they’re going to need a flexible, intuitive system that can be configured to meet their needs and save them oodles of time along the way.

Engagement
and learning

Unlike nearly every other HCM out there, Bob is fun and easy for clients to use. Clunky legacy solutions can’t touch us when it comes to culture, and neither can our more modern competitors. Because Bob isn’t fun for fun’s sake, it’s also designed for a purpose: going beyond traditional HR to impact the success of the entire organization.

Reports as unique
as your business

Automatically compile insights from Bob survey data to identify strengths and weaknesses in your teams, as well as issues that require attention.

With a dashboard summary, response breakdown of the highest and lowest scoring questions, and a visual heatmap, Bob can provide powerful analytics to help you:

  • Break down data by category, site, or department
  • Compare sentiment across your organization
  • Give managers, team leads, and execs access to relevant results so they can take the right action, right away

Their experience
is your business

Bob helps you keep tabs on employee experience by creating and sending feedback surveys ad-hoc or at prescheduled times during the employee journey. Include standard questions to measure things like eNPS (Employee Net Promoter Score), or create your own need-to-know metrics.

Culture is everything

HR leaders love Bob for the ease-of-use and powerful analytics. Employees love it because it’s fun. Through Bob, they can engage with their team and feel less alone on solo workdays. In a hybrid or WFH world, that kind of connection is more important than ever. It’s also deeper than remote work: it’s about making people feel included and seen at every opportunity.

Kudos, all around

Nothing builds connections between employees quicker than mutual admiration. Make it easy for your team to publicly give and receive peer recognition to increase those communal good vibes. It’s easy to refer back to these recognitions during performance cycles or use them to gauge participation across teams and departments.

Performance
and compensation

Nothing builds connections between employees quicker than mutual admiration. Make it easy for your team to publicly give and receive peer recognition to increase those communal good vibes.

Help employees help
themselves

We know that employees who set goals are more likely to reach them. Empower growth with goals and 1:1 check-ins to keep the big swings in sight, and aligned with the business mission.

360º feedback, 365 days a year

In a few clicks, employees can collect reviews from every angle: self, manager, and direct reports. You can even encourage team members to take a more active role, by selecting their own peer reviewers. The entire review process happens in Bob, with no need for emails or spreadsheets.

Clear, unbiased
performance analytics

Bob makes it easy to analyze performance data so that you can track employee progress, measure against company objectives, and nip issues in the bud, early. The compensation management tool also includes comp worksheets that provide managers with important data like:

  • Compensation history
  • Guidelines
  • Performance results and recommendations
  • External salary benchmarks

Compensation management

Bob is also built to empower planners and managers to contribute to compensation decisions for their teams. With Bob, anyone who needs a seat at the table — from regional HR to site managers and C-level – gets one.

The best part of Bob’s compensation management tool? If you need a simple plan, streamlined across departments: you can do that. If you need to juggle base pay, shifting bonus structures, and complex equity plans across multiple teams with varying currencies: you can do that, too.

Be confident you measure up

Bob uses Mercer’s global compensation data to benchmark compensation levels between peers across industry and geography. Known to have one of the largest, most granular comp datasets in existence, Mercer sets pull from over 300,000 employers in over 9000 different jobs across 50+ countries.

Bob can manage:

  • Multiple currency management

  • Localized currency views

  • Local salary benchmarks

  • Diverse pay periods

Payroll

HiBob was built to make life easier. Yours. Your employees’. Bob is designed to keep all your data in one place, even with multiple providers. Save time, reduce errors, and simplify every payroll cycle by effortlessly integrating payroll data from anywhere you need.

The possibilities are endless:

  • Sync with leading global payroll systems, via direct integrations to official payroll partners or with Payroll Connect.

  • Map between the Bob system language and the terminology of the payroll system, and generate payroll reports per cycle.

  • Connect unlimited pay cycles to a single payroll system, migrate easily from one payroll system to another, or add additional payroll systems with ease.

Integrity matters

With multiple data-capture touch points throughout the employee lifecycle, your Bob data is always current. We use data validation processes to confirm that any data submitted is correct and approved before being updated in the system. Then changes are automatically flagged in Payroll Hub, so payroll managers can review the changes relevant to them.

Follow the trail

Bob’s Payroll Hub automatically maps and formats your current data to match the preferred format of your payroll system — no need for duplicate data or manually moving it from one location to another. These validated updates are then automatically pulled into Payroll Hub, so your payroll managers have hot-off-the-presses data, all the time.

Time off tracking

Employees can make time off requests from within Bob, and managers can approve them via push notifications from Slack or MS Teams. Out of the office? They can approve with a few clicks, via the Bob app. HR teams can customize bulk time off policies for different levels, sites, and sets of employees.

Plus, time tracking is simplified with Bob’s automated reports and historical data. It’s easy to check an employee’s current balance, type of time requested, and time off from this or previous cycles.

Keep benefits in sync

Manage benefits administration from within the Bob Payroll Hub. Simply connect your provider and send the data together with your payroll cycle or on a custom schedule. Syncing your benefits data with Bob reduces the risk of manual error and saves time for HR and your people. HiBob currently partners with leading benefits administration solutions, including bswift and Sequoia Tech.

Global payroll,
without the headache

Unite payroll operations in one system that can handle different time zones, languages, currencies, and regulatory environments. That way, you can ensure people get paid accurately and on time, no matter where they work.
