Overall Satisfaction with Rippling

My remote-first company uses Rippling for payroll, benefits and other human resources functions. We have approximately 75 people, and we're growing rapidly. I personally use Rippling to select my benefits during annual open enrollment, request time off, approve time off for my direct report, and I have used the hiring platform to review and communicate with candidates.

Pros

  • Easy to check your pay stubs
  • Walks you through benefit selections step by step and compares pricing
  • Easy to request and approve time off

Cons

  • Time off requests only visible to direct supervisor, not upper management
  • In the hiring platform, the scans of PDF resumes are not always readable
  • The search function in the hiring platform is not great. I could not always easily find the candidate profiles I wanted to review, even when I knew their name.
  • Reduce employees asking repeated questions to HR staff e.g. "What are the insurance options?"
  • Keeping 100 job candidates for an open position organized in one place reduced the need to email resumes around to hiring team
Rippling is more user-friendly than Workday. With Workday, things you enter would not always save correctly and I had to worry about entering my annual goals and having them get lost. I haven't had problems with Rippling's interface.
Have never contacted support

Yes

Did Rippling live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Yes

It is easy and straightforward to use. The email notifications to users are straightforward and timely. They're written in a friendly way. The functionality is intuitive. There is no need to train users on Rippling because it's quite obvious where to go for your basic user functionality.
Based on my experience as a user, I would recommend Rippling as an easy-to-use HR platform. It is the easiest and least quirky platform I've used. It's very straightforward for day-to-day functions like checking your pay stubs, requesting time off, etc. I receive an email notification when I get paid.
