It's so easy to track! Apply leaves it gets seen to Managers

We don’t need to run after managers to explain why we need leave. We can see our whole team at once, including how many people are on leave and who is currently on leave.

Running after Managers and Knowing the team

What do you like best about the product?

I really like Factorial’s granular permission controls along with the timestamped audit logs. It’s great because I can specifically set what our HVAC technicians can see, like just their own safety certifications, while managers still have team access. The audit logs are really helpful, as they track every document interaction and make CCPA-CPRA reviews much easier. Plus, being able to export clean staff rosters quickly for our eNPS surveys with Netigate is a big plus. It also eliminated our need for messy spreadsheets and scattered HR files, centralizing everything in one secure spot and reducing the manual work needed for compliance checks.

What do you dislike about the product?

Factorial lacks native integration with Netigate, so I have to manually pull staff rosters every time for our eNPS surveys. Its custom reporting is also limited; audit log exports require manual filtering to remove unnecessary fields for CCPA-CPRA reviews. Additionally, performing bulk updates for our large group of HVAC technicians often lags, which slows down HR administrative work before our quarterly experience reviews.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Factorial centralized our HR tasks, eliminating scattered spreadsheets and reducing manual work. It ensures PII compliance and simplifies CCPA-CPRA checks with audit-ready logs. It streamlined managing employee training, PTO, and document storage, helping us efficiently collate data for eNPS surveys.

What do you like best about the product?

I value Factorial's straightforward employee onboarding and the centralized digital document repository. It allows us to upload and organize critical paperwork like OSHA safety certifications for our site crews in one accessible spot. The self-service portal significantly reduces routine HR email traffic.

What do you dislike about the product?

Factorial falls short when handling construction-specific workforce reporting. It cannot easily filter records by individual job sites, which creates headaches for our compliance checks. Its integration with construction project tools is very limited, and without a dedicated IT team, custom connections are not feasible. We end up manually sorting and re-organizing exported spreadsheets, which eats into valuable project lead-up time. The basic setup was quick, but configuring profiles for rotating field crews was challenging since there were no pre-built templates for construction safety fields. We needed manual workarounds to tag workers to their respective active job sites.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Factorial to streamline HR workflows, like onboarding and document storage, which reduces email traffic. However, it lacks construction-specific reporting, requiring manual data handling for compliance checks.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

To improve Factorial's utility for construction companies, consider enhancing its reporting capabilities to include filters for individual job sites and better integration with construction project management tools. Providing pre-built templates for construction-specific fields would also be beneficial.

What do you like best about the product?

It is a useful and easy-to-use tool that saves you from unnecessary paperwork and brings you closer to your supervisors.

What do you dislike about the product?

For changing vacation days or absence days, it is not as straightforward.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

It is practical, saves time, and is informative
