I appreciate the affordability—$13.50 per user per month for People Plus and HR Enterprise. Discounts are available if paid annually. Zoho offers a “Free for Life” plan for up to five users. The user interface and design are excellent: simple, clean, and easy to use.

I used Zoho People, including the Recruitment module, for one year. We needed a recruitment solution with automation, easy access to recruitment metrics and data, and improved efficiency in the hiring process. The user experience was excellent—simple and clean. Zoho People was easy to train the recruitment team on. It was both affordable and scalable.

The only negative I can think of for Zoho People is if we need to download a large amount of data it takes a long time for the data to download.

Zoho People offers easier customizations and better workflow automations compared to most systems. The reporting and dashboards are robust and highly customizable. The pricing is affordable and offers great value for the features included.

Zoho People is suitable for businesses of all sizes, especially those expecting growth, due to its scalability. It’s an affordable option for recruitment and HR needs. Zoho also offers additional tools such as Payroll, Employee Engagement, and Performance and Development to complement its core HR features.

Zoho People has continued to evolve by updating its platform to support recruitment teams effectively. It has scaled well as organizations grow. Zoho now includes additional offerings such as Payroll, Employee Engagement, and Performance and Development to further support HR functions.

Zoho People is a good fit for any company. The platform is scalable and includes many optional features to support a variety of HR workflows.

Our use of Zoho People was part of a larger bundle that included multiple Zoho systems like CRM, Sign, and Learn. We paid just over $2K monthly for access to these tools, with CRM being heavily utilized by the team.

The main advantage was the cost-effectiveness of the bundled package. If not for that, Zoho People wouldn’t have been our first choice. A user-friendly interface is important to us since our demographic is predominantly millennials, followed by Gen Z.

Ease of use and modern design were key factors in our selection process, which ultimately led us to transition away from Zoho People.

The company I worked for used Zoho People for three years since it aligned with Zoho CRM, a tool the sales team already used. It was the logical choice to stay within the same ecosystem. It also offered many free features that met our initial needs as a startup. As the company grew, we required more advanced functionalities, which eventually led us to transition to a different HRIS system.

The user interface was not as intuitive as other systems I've used as an HR leader. Navigation often felt outdated and clunky. Customization options were limited compared to competitors.

It’s not on my list of preferred HRIS platforms. It does the job and works well for companies just starting out that need a basic system for storing personnel files, providing easy employee access, and offering competitive pricing. From both a backend and user perspective, it’s not ideal. I would still choose other HRIS options like BambooHR or HiBob.

Usability should be the top priority. I’ve launched several HRIS platforms, and at the end of the day, employees need to actually use the system. No matter how great the backend is for HR or how competitive the pricing may be, if the user interface is too complicated, adoption will be a challenge. The system’s overall aesthetic should align with the company’s demographic to support engagement and success.

It improved over the time we used it, but the challenge was that competitors remained ahead of the curve. This made it a tough business decision to stick with Zoho People while waiting for it to catch up. Since we migrated out in December, I’ve noticed significant interface changes, but not enough to make me regret leaving the platform.

Zoho People is a good fit for teams already using Zoho CRM, as it makes sense to keep everything within the same ecosystem. It’s a practical choice for companies looking for a cost-effective, all-in-one solution. I personally think the interface seems to cater more to older generations. It sometimes feels like an elevated version of what AOL Instant Messenger would look like.

• Easily application process for leaves: You can apply for leaves according to the leaves calendar, and things are easily trackable.
• Events can be created and notifications are broadcasted through open channels.
• Salary slips and payroll information: Getting payslips and salary information is easy. It also provides a dashboard and shows downloadable payslips, which are easily accessible.

Not Zoho People exactly, but we purchased the full ecosystem of Zoho, called Zoho One, which consists of several tools that we wanted. From their (Zoho) demo, we liked the interface and capabilities of most of the tools. We were looking for a platform through which people can get most things under a single umbrella, so we had the demo, used it for a month, customized it to our liking, and they delivered. That’s when we decided to subscribe for a whole year.

Zoho People is full of features. The only con is the UI. Besides that, the software is really future proof. I’d suggest for the dev team to build in smarter UI features.

I have used Darwinbox and SugarCRM, but this software has way more added features to make things easy for the employees and the HR management.

The tool is expensive, if you have a large pool of employees then it would be great if you could talk with their representatives and ask for a discount. But it's well worth it. My only suggestion is get the demo, use it, if you think it's worth the price, go for it.

Yes, I have used it before, but back then there were a lot of bugs. But now the software has become smoother and easier to use.

If you are managing a big pool of employees.
