FAQ

Orbiz vs BambooHR: what people ask

What would a 40-person company pay for BambooHR, and for Orbiz?

Above 25 employees BambooHR is per employee: Core at $10 a month makes forty people $400 a month, $4,800 a year, before its automatic volume discounts and before payroll, benefits or time tracking. Orbiz is one flat price per organisation for all ten tools, set by headcount band and put in writing; HRMS, attendance and payroll are inside it.

Can HRMS replace BambooHR Payroll and Benefits?

Payroll, yes, if you are not running US payroll: Ledgr builds salary sheets from AMS attendance with your pay rules and tax tables, and issues payslips. Benefits administration, no — Orbiz has no enrolment, carrier connections or insurance tools, and BambooHR’s add-on does that for US employees.

Does HRMS do performance reviews?

Partly. HRMS has a process and form builder for HR workflows — probation evaluations, onboarding and offboarding checklists — with each step routed to the right manager as a task. It does not run 360° cycles, goal tracking or one-on-one agendas; BambooHR Pro does.
