What BambooHR is
BambooHR is paid HR software for managing employee records and related workplace processes. It includes time-off management, employee onboarding, performance management, and time tracking. The service runs on the web, iOS, and Android, with mobile apps available. BambooHR was founded in 2008. Three listed plans are billed per employee, per month. Core costs $10 a month and includes 5 job openings. Pro costs $17 a month and includes 25 job openings. Elite costs $25 a month and includes 50 job openings. The opening allowances are the stated distinction among the tiers. Organizations can therefore match these HR functions and hiring capacity with a plan, while accounting for the per-employee billing basis. The combination of employee information, time-off, onboarding, performance, and time tracking provides a centralized set of listed HR functions across browser and mobile platforms.
