Sapling Erfahrungen

Vorteile

The UI seems friendly and responsive. The design is solid and modern.

Nachteile

Not very good at dealing with dropped connections (LTE hotspot, etc.)

Vorteile

The innovative technology that allows you to not only have easy access to your profile and your team memebers, but other leaders and team members in different locations to all be able to communicate and help one another. Also it’s as if your at a one stop shop from easy accessible tabs to keep track of your daily tasks to making keeping track of all of your information safer and quicker than ever.

Nachteile

This software is awesome if your using it from a pc if your using a mobile device and could be a little frustrating to access certain things. Which could easily be solved by flipping your phone into the horizontally direction a lot of the tabs you wouldn’t previously have see will now appear making everything to slot smoother.

Vorteile

When everything is set up, Sapling allows for a pretty smooth workflow when hiring new hires for your company

Nachteile

It feels like there are a few kinks to work out. I have seen issues where signed candidate documents are wiped, requiring new hires to resign the documents.

Vorteile

I love how customizable this platform is. It has evolved very quickly and the support team is super responsive. Each feature release provides new and improved ways for InVision to enrich our new hire experience.

Nachteile

With so many releases being launched sometimes the platform slows down quite a but which can be a bit tough. Mainly because I relay on this platform so much so when it slows down, my workflow is interrupted.

Vorteile

Employee profile is really detailed and I can add a lot of fields. It's easy to use with simple navigation.

Document management is a great feature to get me onboard and keep track of my documents.

Nachteile

Doesn't really useful after I get to know more about my company and other colleagues. I only update my profile once or twice ever.

Doesn't really good at task management, since there are other better tools for that.

Vorteile

Easy of use and the ability for many people to use it (HR, recruiting, manager, employees and new hires). The support of the tool is excellent too. Sapling has customer success reps who are almost always available to assist with any features or requests.

Nachteile

The new layout is a little more confusing to use than the old one and slightly more clunky. Once you get used to it, it's not so bad.

Vorteile

Very simple step by step process to complete the flow. Uploading and reviewing documents was very simple as well. The pages seem very well polished and look modern compared to other HR web apps I've used in the past.

Nachteile

There are no error messages displayed for required fields and they can be hard to notice. Another improvement I would suggest is to split up some of the forms into multiple pages or have a way to save progress.

Vorteile

User Friendly, explained the process step by step, visually appealing layout

Nachteile

So far there is nothing that I dislike about this software.

Vorteile

The process seemed light and too overbearing

Nachteile

Middle name can't be a required field. It took some time for me to figure the error in the form.
browsing Org chart was difficult. I was not able to research a person and go one level up

Vorteile

Keeping all my paperwork in one place, organization of on-boarding is critical to success. The software did a great job of keeping all my ducks in a row as I got up to speed.

Nachteile

Nothing at the moment. I don't have any real complaints at this point

Vorteile

My favourite thing about Sapling is the ability to create customized onboarding journeys. Onboarding is so important to a company and Sapling enables you to create unforgettable experiences by automating the admin heavy side so that you can focus on creating a seamless/customised experiences.

Nachteile

It's reporting, storage and analytics capabilities have a long way to go. As we scale, I question wether we will outgrow it as a HRIS due to these things mentioned.

Vorteile

Usability and look and feel is quite nice. App is responsive and clear.

Nachteile

Mostly around the People/Team members section.

* I would appreciate if i can click on the team member profile and open it in a separate tab.
* No clean way to come back to list of team members (except clicking on the browser back).
* Persist the filtering/page size: If i apply a filter or change pagesize, then click on a team member profile and come back to list, the previous filters/pagesize is lost and i have to reapply.

Also i noticed while filling personal details, in Gender dropdown there is no field for LGBT, it would be nice to have that option for people who identify differently.

Vorteile

I can pass on tasks to other employees in the company and getting information to the employee before they begin.

Nachteile

Still some bugs they need to get through. I'd like to be able to customize a little more, but overall a good program.

Vorteile

The interface feels modern and simple; it strives to look and behave like the best apps that you use every day. It makes simple tasks as simple as they should be, and complex tasks easier to accomplish.
I like how Sapling encourages profile creation for a more social experience. Most HRIS software is cold and treats you like a peon. Sapling takes a warmer approach and makes it feel like you're connecting better with your coworkers.

Nachteile

The interface needs some more polish and performance improvements. Sapling also faces the same issue that other employee experience apps have where some parts of the interface can feel empty depending on how many features are in your company's license, and to what extent your company is utilizing those features. The layout (information architecture) seems too flat - It doesn't tell me what's most important.

Vorteile

Clean, easy to use and navigate. The prompts were clear. This is my first time using the software, I was using it to get onboarded and to learn about my new team.

Nachteile

The People area didn't give me the views I needed all the time. For instance, when I clicked into one person from a specific department that I filtered, I saw the rest of the team on the side in circular icon form, but I had to role over to see their names, and I had no way of seeing their position, organizational structure. I also (when I hit the back button after that) it brought me back to the whole company and I had to filter all over again. I wish I was also able to see the team structure visually on someone's profile, including my own. And, be able to just click (XYZ team) on the side by profile pics to bring me directly back to the team I filtered.

Vorteile

I liked that i was able to use sapling not only on my computer but on my phone as well. It helps being in the field and still able to check in with each different team in different channels

Nachteile

One complaint I have, and i also just signed up for the service so i could be doing something wrong, but one complaint would be the notifications, once i click onto the messages that i received the notification from, the number don't always go away

Vorteile

I love the many features that Sapling has to offer. My onboarding process has become so much faster and much more organized. I'd say my favorite part about this software would be how everything is generated automatically. I can schedule the welcome email to be sent out on an exact day and time and have team members sign documents all at once.
Also my Sapling representative has been super helpful and patient every step of the way, can't thank him and his team enough!

Vorteile

Easiness of use combined with the option to scale according to business needs. Sapling provides a great platform to ensure employees stay organized.

Nachteile

Sapling has its own limitations and does not support a variety of other onboarding features that might be available through other solutions. Still, I believe this to be the best option for usability

Vorteile

Sapling makes HR interactions easy and it has tools for employees as well.
I love the custom workflow and organizational charts which are interactive and easy to use.
Sapling makes it easy for all employees to view clearly outlined policies and rules.
We can also view information on each departments projects or roles and their progress with each.

Nachteile

Sapling bases your subscription price on the number of employees in your company rather than what features you use or how much data you store. Sapling does not offer a free trial or free version so that you can explore the product before you commit.
Sapling is web based and has no mobile app which is why I rated ease of use and ease of deployment a 3 out of 5.

Vorteile

I really enjoyed how easy it was to through the process. Very well organized compared to other on-boarding apps have used in the past. GUI is easy on the eyes and has good flow. When I logged out and back in, was right where I left off. Really enjoyed seeing the team I am working with and all the new hires coming on board with me.

Nachteile

I did experience when I was signing a document the information boxes covered some of the content to view what I needed to input into a couple of boxes. Overlay was hiding text. I eventually figured out. This was the only thing the I ran into.

Vorteile

It's easy to use. I don't have to figure out the steps of the process myself. The software gives me cues when a task is done and when I need to move on to the next task.

Nachteile

It's very glitchy on a phone. I tried on-boarding through my phone, it was very tedious. I couldn't understand what was missing, site isn't responsive enough for a phone.

Vorteile

Sapling made onboarding to my new company smooth and easy. I appreciated that I could find all the information I would need in one place. It was helpful to be able to write a short bio for myself to introduce (or reintroduce myself) to team member and to put names to faces before arriving on my first day. Also, having a timeline of the company's history was interesting to see what milestones they placed value on.

Nachteile

I really haven't had any negatives with Sapling yet. For the needs of onboarding as a new employee, it met all the criteria I can think of.

Vorteile

Makes paperwork easy to get through, don't need to bring in all my documents and wait until I'm actually in the office to get started. Sleek interface, efficient movement between sections and helpful customer service.

Nachteile

Submit button would often be a little slow to let you through to the next page (despite the fact all required fields were filled) so didn't move through pages as quickly as possible.

Vorteile

convenience and ease of use for onboarding with a new company

Nachteile

Perhaps the UX can be improved in the future for my personal customized dashboard including but not limited to varying color options.

Vorteile

I liked how I was able to connect with my coworkers, see recent new hires, see my work team and also connect to my company's intranet.

Nachteile

I don't like that all the documents uploaded to the software needed to be in pdf format.
