“Het ideaal is wat we nu hebben met Grouper.”
“I was new to HR and kept nodding along in meetings while having no idea what ATS or FLSA meant. The BambooHR glossary was my secret weapon for the first six months.”
Wat onze klanten zeggen
Het ideaal is wat we nu hebben met Grouper.
Met ons wervingstempo hebt u geen tijd om te googelen of naar een videotutorial te kijken. Het feit dat we iemand hebben om mee te praten en ons snel praktische oplossingen te bieden is van onschatbare waarde. Hun klantenservice is ongeëvenaard.
De samenwerking met Grouper is fantastisch geweest. Onze accountmanager is vriendelijk, bekwaam en benaderbaar. Hun kennis en expertise zijn geweldig en het geeft veel geruststelling dat ik het systeem kan laten doen wat het moet doen. Het heeft veel druk van ons team weggenomen.
De implementatie verliep allemaal voorspoedig. Grouper reageerde altijd snel en onze accountmanager is zorgvuldig en alert, en flexibel wat betreft tijd en hulp die ze ons hebben geboden. Zelfs nu het systeem is opgezet, zullen ze waarschijnlijk binnen het uur terugkomen als we een e-mail sturen of een vraag hebben.
It would be difficult to find a replacement system of the quality and accessibility that we found, for the price and the ease of implementation. Grouper is absolutely an upgrade on what we had before. Interactions are as frequent as we need them, and our contact is typically flexible to have quick calls to discuss. That availability is helpful.
In veel transacties is de verkoper niet betrokken bij de transformatie. Moji is vrij uniek in zijn vakgebied omdat hij in de geest van HR-praktijkers kan doordringen, maar hij begrijpt ook de business en is bovendien erg technisch. Hij kan het dialoog zo afstemmen waar hij moet zijn. Het was het beste in klasse pakket.
Systemen komen en gaan en mensen kunnen door overdrachten werken, maar er is iets heel unieks aan hoe gepassioneerd en bekwaam Moji is. Hij is op kantoor geweest en heeft iedereen ontmoet en getraind. Die mate van advieswerk, dat vind je niet overal.
Tot wel 85% van onze werkweek werd besteed aan werving, contracten en aanbiedingen. Nu zou ik zeggen dat onze administratieve last met 40% is afgenomen omdat we niet eindeloos door e-mails hoeven te zoeken.
We hadden voorheen geen HR-systeem; alles was handmatig en op spreadsheets. Grouper maakte alles zo eenvoudig en het is echt een verandering geweest, niet alleen voor mij maar ook voor onze managers. Ze mailen me niet meer met informatieverzoeken. Ik zou zeggen dat het de admin-kant met zo’n 40% heeft verminderd.
Het is de klantenservice waar ze in uitblinken. Ik was verrast dat je een specifieke persoon met een vraag kon mailen. Zo gauw we een vraag hebben, is hij terug met de snelste respons die ik ooit heb gezien. En het wordt altijd opgelost. Je ziet niet wat je bij veel andere aanbieders ziet waar de leverancier je een generieke reactie stuurt of waar er geen flexibiliteit is.
Aan het begin was het serviceniveau zeer hoog. We hadden de kans om samen te werken met onze accountmanager, die briljant was. Hij is zo servicegericht en wil onze behoeften en issues begrijpen. Hij is zo snel: wanneer ik een verzoek heb, reageert hij altijd onmiddellijk, en we zijn er echt blij mee.
With many vendors, reaching out for support often means receiving automated replies and waiting a week for a response. Even then, the replies can feel scripted. With Grouper, however, the support feels more personalised, and solutions are handled efficiently.
Het is enorm waardevol. Onze accountmanager is nu een goede vriend. Hij springt graag op een telefoongesprek om een specifieke functie van het systeem te laten zien of stap voor stap uit te leggen. Ik stuur 's ochtends een e-mail en hij is binnen een paar uur terug. Het is geweldig iemand op persoonlijk vlak te hebben waar je mee kunt communiceren.
Snelle respons. Ze pakken dingen altijd heel snel op. We zijn een groot team en dromen ervan dingen wat makkelijker te maken. Soms komen we op ideeën die haalbaar lijken, dus nemen we altijd contact op met Grouper. Ik heb alle informatie beschikbaar, ik hoef geen fysiek bestand of map te zoeken: alles staat daar op het platform. Onschatbaar!
Bij sommige uitbestede aanbieders weet je niet wie zal reageren of hoe lang je zult wachten. Terwijl ik gewoon altijd Grouper mail, en zij reageren direct terug en proberen altijd een oplossing te vinden.
We zijn bij Grouper sinds 2019 en zien hen als een zeer nauwe partner. We erkennen ook dat zij ons bedrijf begrijpen.
Grouper were so supportive: anything we needed, they helped us with. They gave us demos for features like managing annual leave quotas, so it was just a matter of clicking a few buttons.
Dat is de schoonheid van zaken doen met een bedrijf als Grouper. We zijn een klein MKB en het soort ondersteuning dat we nodig hebben, krijgen we precies.
Grouper is zeer responsief en onze accountmanager heeft veel kennis, en kan ons ideeën geven en laten zien hoe we het systeem nog verder kunnen benutten. De service is heel soepel verlopen: het is een grote verandering, maar het team is zeer responsief geweest en ook goed in het delen van informatie.
Grouper is gevestigd in Ierland, dus vanuit ons oogpunt was communicatie en de ondersteuning veel gemakkelijker. Ze zijn zeer effectief, beantwoorden al onze e-mails tijdig. Ze volgen op en, als nodig, regelen ze vergaderingen om kwesties te bespreken en lossen ze effectief op.
Onze accountmanager zat er bovenop en reageerde echt snel. Het verplaatsen van softwaresystemen is geen kleine taak, dus we waren vrij vaak in contact. Hij zorgde ervoor dat ik kreeg wat ik nodig had en op tijd terugkreeg. Ik bleef op de hoogte en de communicatie was zeer transparant, zodat ik altijd wist wat er gebeurde.
At the start, Grouper were very helpful. I remember I compiled a list of questions over the first few weeks and we set up a call. The support has always been very helpful, they can come into our system, share the screen and show us live how to use the system.
Ik zou zeggen dat de service zeer gebruiksvriendelijk en ondersteunend is, met snelle reactietijden. De klantervaring is goed. En omdat we dezelfde accountmanager hebben opgebouwd, weet ik dat ik kan bellen en er is flexibiliteit in hoe die ondersteuning kan worden geboden. Die consistentie die we krijgen met Grouper is zeer waardevol.
Grouper helped us to navigate a difficult time in the best possible way, as a kind of translator for the system.
Wat is uniek aan Grouper? Ik zou zeggen dat ze zeer responsief, betrouwbaar en ondersteunend zijn. Toen we automatische prestatiebeoordelingen in het systeem wilden zetten, hadden we een paar gesprekken waarbij ze mijn scherm deelden om me te laten zien hoe het goed in te stellen. Dankzij Grouper.
Onze accountmanager is zeer, zeer behulpzaam en zal altijd op een oproep springen. Het kan slechts een paar minuten zijn, maar het is zoveel gemakkelijker om met iemand te praten en het scherm te delen. Onlangs wilde ik een veld wijzigen en de tab Werk veranderen. Hij deed dat echt snel. Bij andere systemen heb ik tijd gestoken in het proberen te achterhalen en misschien uiteindelijk bereik ik het, maar het kostte een uur.
Grouper's aanpak is erg handig en persoonlijk vind ik dat echt handig omdat het tijd bespaart en uiteindelijk bespaart het het bedrijf geld omdat ik geen tijd verspilde informatie hoef te zoeken.
Ik heb het gevoel dat als ik contact moet opnemen en met onze Account Manager moet spreken, hij zijn best zal doen een oplossing te vinden. Hij kent het systeem erg goed, dus zijn technische kennis is erg goed. Ik voel dat, door naar hem te gaan, ik technischer inzicht krijg en hij probeert andere problemen met de oplossing op te lossen. Wetend dat ik Grouper heb om ons als klant te ondersteunen, geeft me dat meer geruststelling.
What makes Grouper stand out to me is, we jump on a call and we have the chance to overcome that barrier in communication you can get with emails, or sending tickets to be resolved.
Ik had gewoon iets nodig dat mijn leven gemakkelijker zou maken in plaats van overal handmatige records. Grouper was zo behulpzaam, ze hebben alles opgezet zoals ik had gevraagd en dat maakte het voor mij gemakkelijker om door het systeem te navigeren met de informatie die er al was.
I found Grouper really helpful. We had a few training sessions and they tailored them to the individual or to the questions I had.
We implemented in a matter of weeks whereas if it was left to me, it probably would have delayed the rollout, at a time when I am time poor. It meant the team could look after their own records and I just had to look after the approvals.
We hebben altijd een persoonlijk aanspreekpunt bij Grouper, die erg hands-on was, vooral in de beginfase.
Vanwege de sector waarin we zitten, letten we waarschijnlijk meer op de klantenservice-aspecten en die responsiviteit is voor ons enorm belangrijk. Dat heeft me geholpen zo tevreden te zijn met de ondersteuning. Onze accountmanager is altijd goed in terugkomen en ik waardeer hoe het een persoonlijkeTouch heeft: het hebben van één enkel aanspreekpunt is echt handig, net zoals onze klanten het prettig vinden een vertrouwd gezicht te hebben.
