Analyst Notes on HiBob

I’ve been watching HiBob for over five years now, and I’ve been pleasantly surprised time and time again by the Bob product and how the team approaches the market. Our research shows that HR teams are strapped for time, and that’s doubly true when they are at midsize organizations with limited resources. Bob offers a single platform that gives them everything they need for onboarding, employee performance, recruiting, training, and more.

What makes Bob different, in part, is the culture of the company. They truly believe they are making work better for employees at each of their clients, and that filters through into an intuitive, pleasant user experience with the platform. However, Culture is just one of three pillars that Bob excels at; the other two are Operations and Strategy.

From a roadmap perspective, Bob is adding new features that keep it in a very competitive market position, including a range of intelligent AI features across the platform. Taken together, these advances take work off of HR’s plate, enabling them to spend more time building great cultures and aligning with the business.

That’s the sense I get when looking at some of the customer wins for HiBob in the last year. There are a range of companies adopting the Bob platform, from those moving up from spreadsheets to their first HCM solution to those that are migrating from overly complicated enterprise HCM solutions to something more flexible and adaptable to midmarket employer needs.

The other differentiator for Bob is the global nature of the platform. While the system can be used by a company with operations in one country, it really shines when used across international borders. It’s one reason our team suggested Bob to a software company that was looking for a replacement to one of the legacy HCM providers as they sought a more agile alternative for their multicountry HR needs.

In the past few years, HiBob has won multiple times in the HR Tech Awards program for excellent work in global HR, culture-building, DEI, and other areas. For employers with hundreds to thousands of employees, HiBob is a solution that is definitely worth deeper consideration.
