## What Is Rippling?

**Industry Specialties:** Serves all industries 

Rippling sits in the top 10 of our HR software directory — and for good reason. At its core is the Rippling Platform, a unified operations hub that lets you automate HR, IT and finance workflows from one place. You can build custom automations in Workflow Studio, enforce granular permissions and pull data from dozens of systems into one set of global analytics.

From there, you can add one or more of Rippling’s four paid suites: Payroll, HCM, IT and Spend. Each suite extends the platform’s reach into a full department system.

Rippling Payroll handles unlimited pay runs and syncs with time, benefits and expenses in real time — no imports needed. It’s tax-compliant in all 50 states and offers global payroll across 185+ countries and 50 languages.

HCM features include recruiting, performance management, learning, benefits, time tracking, surveys and headcount planning, which are all tightly integrated. The recruiting module pulls from performance data and internal org charts so that you can hire based on actual gaps and future plans.

Rippling IT is what you'd use to provision apps, manage devices and enforce security policies automatically. Onboarding and offboarding become nearly hands-free: you set the rules, Rippling handles the logistics.

Rippling Spend gives you real-time visibility into company spending. You can issue corporate cards, manage reimbursements and route bills through customizable approval workflows.

Rippling connects with over 600 apps — including [Google Workspace](https://www.selecthub.com/p/collaboration-software-tools/google-workspace/), [Slack](https://www.selecthub.com/p/collaboration-software-tools/slack/), [Zoom](https://www.selecthub.com/p/business-phone-systems/zoom/), GitHub, [Asana](https://www.selecthub.com/p/project-management-software/asana/), [Zendesk](https://www.selecthub.com/p/help-desk-software/zendesk/), [Notion](https://www.selecthub.com/p/collaboration-software-tools/notion-so/), [Dropbox](https://www.selecthub.com/p/collaboration-software-tools/dropbox-enterprise/), Amazon, LinkedIn, HubSpot and [Mailchimp](https://www.selecthub.com/p/marketing-automation-software/mailchimp/) — earning the best-in-class award for extensibility.

Newer features include shift scheduling based on forecasted demand, goal tracking by team or department, and content creation with a custom course builder.

According to our data, 95% of users would recommend Rippling for HR — especially if you’re looking for cross-functional control without the silos.

User reviews appreciated the platform for its user-friendliness, integrations and automation. However, many people mentioned issues with support services and workflow delays.

**Our Research Process for Rippling**

I created a scorecard in our selection platform to compare Rippling with other top HRMS tools that included [ADP Workforce Now](https://www.selecthub.com/p/hr-management-software/adp-workforce-now/), [SuccessFactors](https://www.selecthub.com/p/hr-management-software/successfactors/), [Paylocity](https://www.selecthub.com/p/hr-management-software/paylocity/) and [PDS Vista](https://www.selecthub.com/p/hr-management-software/pds-vista/). I also browsed the vendor’s webpage, paying special attention to their latest feature releases.

Additionally, I signed up for the vendor’s two-hour on-demand demo to understand the platform’s functionality and features. I also read user reviews on G2, Capterra, TrustRadius, Gartner and Software Advice to see how real-life users feel about it.

## Rippling Benefits and Insights

Why use Rippling?

### Key differentiators & advantages of Rippling

* **Account Provisioning:** Rippling scored 100 in our analysis for auto-creating accounts across tools like [Salesforce](https://www.selecthub.com/p/crm-software/salesforce/), Slack, Google Workspace and [Microsoft 365](https://www.selecthub.com/p/collaboration-software-tools/microsoft-365/) — a major onboarding time-saver. ADP, SuccessFactors, Paylocity and PDS Vista don’t offer this.
* **Device Management:** Rippling lets you ship pre-configured laptops to new hires without involving IT. You can order from its in-platform store, choose role-based apps and settings, and Rippling handles setup, shipping and permissions.
* **Security:** Rippling bundles real-time antivirus, device encryption and app access control directly into the platform — all mapped to individual employee profiles. It goes beyond HR data, protecting devices and enforcing policies automatically, even during offboarding.

### Industry Expertise

Rippling suits any industry and has successfully served companies across diverse sectors like IT, insurance, automotive, food and beverages, entertainment and retail.

### Synopsis of User Ratings and Reviews 

Based on an aggregate of Rippling reviews taken from the sources above, the following pros & cons have been curated by a SelectHub Market Analyst.

#### Pros

* **User-Friendly Interface:** Users frequently highlight Rippling's intuitive and easy-to-navigate design, which simplifies tasks for HR, payroll and IT users.
* **Automation:** Rippling's automation of onboarding, payroll processing and benefits administration saves time and reduces manual errors.
* **Smooth Integrations:** The platform's ability to integrate with over 600 apps, including Slack, [QuickBooks](https://www.selecthub.com/p/accounting-software/quickbooks-online/) and Google Workspace, enhances workflow efficiency.

**What Users Like**

* “Rippling really is a system of record — since all our employee data lives in one place, it saves me a lot of time and effort when setting up things like Guideline for 401(k)s or our Worker's Comp insurance, because I’m not stuck re-entering the same info in multiple systems and adding new employees is easy.” - Judd Schoenholtz, Co-Founder & CEO, [Deferred.com](http://deferred.com)
* “I could spin up a new employee file, trigger IT setup and run compliance checklists without switching tabs. It felt like flipping a messy drawer into a streamlined flow. Saved time, saved mistakes, saved sanity.” - Briana Torres, HR Systems Manager at [Injectco](https://injectco.com/)

#### Cons

* **Opaque Pricing:** Rippling's unclear pricing structure, which requires custom quotes and includes additional fees for certain features, can deter small businesses from considering it.
* **Slow Support:** Some users report challenges with Rippling's customer support, including limited phone support options and inconsistent response times.
* **Long Learning curve:** While the interface is generally user-friendly, mastering advanced features like custom workflows and reporting can require additional time and training.

**What Users Dislike**

* “When everything’s integrated through Rippling, even something simple like updating an employee’s personal info can get tricky — it’s not always clear what will change automatically and what won’t, so you end up having to dig into each system to figure out what still needs to be done.” - Judd Schoenholtz, Co-Founder & CEO, Deferred.com
* “I ran into issues where managers could view sensitive fields or had no access at all with no in-between. You can work around it, sure, but for a system built on control and automation, the role settings could be smarter.” - Briana Torres, HR Systems Manager at Injectco

#### Researcher's Summary:

Rippling makes a big promise: one system to manage your entire workforce, covering recruiting, payroll, benefits, and even IT and analytics. What should set it apart isn’t just how many boxes it ticks, but how those pieces talk to each other.

The platform runs on super groups and employee graphs, which translate into automatic role-based permissions and a single source of truth for employee data, respectively. In theory, that means less double entry, fewer sync issues and faster turnaround for everything from onboarding to analytics.

From what I saw in the product demo, it seems to deliver on that pitch, especially when paired with Workflow Studio, Rippling’s automation builder. HR teams can cut days’ worth of repetitive tasks, and it seems some organizations are already reaping the benefits. For example, [Compass Coffee](https://www.rippling.com/customers/compass-coffee) shaved 15 hours off monthly admin work and sped up onboarding by 6x after switching.

That said, user sentiment splits depending on where you look. G2 reviews are glowing. Reddit? Not so much. Several users reported botched pay runs, buggy updates and lackluster support, particularly for international payroll and Canadian teams.

ADP Workforce Now offers stronger payroll reliability in these scenarios, with AI-powered anomaly detection that catches errors before they hit paychecks, a safeguard Rippling's automation doesn't consistently match. So while Rippling claims to handle any worker type, the experience may vary in practice.

When it comes to advanced needs, Rippling struggles to compete with SAP SuccessFactors, which delivers deeper workforce insights and more mature talent management with regulatory compliance and global labor law support. However, Rippling offers time tracking and benefits enrollment that are comparable to mid-market competitor Paylocity, with the bonus of broader IT provisioning.

Cost-wise, it’s modular — compensation, analytics and scheduling come as extras, though most buyers say the pricing holds up well against similar tools.

**Bottom line:** For HR teams at mid-sized to large companies, Rippling can be a serious time-saver, especially if you're juggling multiple departments or international workers. However, smaller teams will get more out of it in terms of employee engagement with fewer moving parts to trip over.

## Key Features

* **Analytics:** Rippling lets you build reports on device management, corporate card spend, cost by location, payroll, tax and compliance — no separate BI tool needed. The vendor offers over 500 customizable reporting recipes (pre-built templates).
* **Performance Management:** Rippling supports 360° reviews with peer, self, upward and downward feedback. You can set goals and OKRs, track progress and tie performance directly to compensation decisions. The performance module links directly to compensation, so pay decisions are backed by actual performance data.
* **Payroll:** Rippling automatically sets up new hires in payroll and prorates them if they join mid-cycle. You can run a quick pay run comparison to spot differences between this cycle and the last. Time, attendance and benefits data all flow into payroll, which you can add to the general ledger and push to your accounting tools.
* **Time Tracking:** You can build a PTO policy that fits your team, then approve requests with one click. Logged hours and vacation time sync straight into payroll without any manual steps.
* **Compliance:** Once you set up overtime, break rules or differential pay by location or job, Rippling applies them across the board for compliance. You can also define shift premiums and job-based rates without needing separate tools.
* **ATS:** Rippling lets you post jobs, schedule interviews and collect feedback without switching platforms. You can sync job requisitions with headcount plans, manage internal referrals and automate offer letters.
* **Employee Graph:** Instead of building the system around payroll, Rippling built it around the employee. Everything from pay history to performance data lives in one unified record, so your data stays connected and easy to manage.
* **Super Groups:** Rippling auto-assigns new hires to super groups based on their role, so payroll rules, benefits and app access kick in right away. When someone changes roles or exits, the system updates everything — even their Slack channels and Drive folders.
* **Policies:** Whether you’re locking a device, enforcing budget limits or making sure reviews get done, Rippling routes each policy to the right people. It hooks into your org chart and automatically updates workflows to reflect the changes when someone leaves or changes roles.
* **Workflow Studio:** You can automate nearly every HR and payroll process with the Workflow Studio. Rippling lets you trigger time-off reminders to employees who haven’t taken PTO in a while. Additionally, you can schedule messages, emails and employee check-ins.
* **Onboarding:** Rippling handles the full onboarding workflow — signing the offer, collecting I-9s and W-4s, gathering bank info, setting up benefits and prorating first paychecks if the employee joins mid-cycle. It also preloads software on their assigned laptop.
* **Scheduling:** Rippling provides a clean, color-coded view of shifts and auto-applies overtime rules, even alerting you when you’re under- or over-staffed. Employees can swap or adjust their shifts, and the Compliance 360 dashboard flags missed breaks and wage violations.
* **Benefits Administration:** You can choose from over 4,000 benefits plans or use your broker and add their plans to the platform. Rippling invites new hires to enroll in benefits and syncs the payroll deductions for employee and employer contributions automatically.
* **Accounts Payable System:** You can run your full AP process in Rippling — scan invoices with OCR, set approval chains and pay by ACH or wire. You’ll also get alerts if tax forms or vendor info are missing, and you can attach contracts and W-9s to each transaction.
* **Spend Management:** Rippling keeps vendor payments, reimbursements and credit card spend in separate lanes so nothing gets mixed up. The system blocks duplicate expense requests, lets you drill into each expense from the dashboard, and supports submissions and reimbursement tracking from mobile devices.
* **Mobile App:** Employees can check their pay, update benefits or request PTO without logging into a desktop.
  
## Limitations

* Doesn’t provide Automated Evidence of Insurability (EOI).
* Lacks pre-screening questionnaires.
* Doesn’t offer benefits plan recommendations.
* Lacks employee self-service for editing personal information.

          "description": "Rippling sits in the top 10 of our HR software directory — and for good reason. At its core is the Rippling Platform, a unified operations hub that lets you automate HR, IT and finance workflows from one place. You can build custom automations in Workflow Studio, enforce granular permissions and pull data from dozens of systems into one set of global analytics.From there, you can add one or more of Rippling’s four paid suites: Payroll, HCM, IT and Spend. Each suite extends the platform’s reach into a full department system.Rippling Payroll handles unlimited pay runs and syncs with time, benefits and expenses in real time — no imports needed. It’s tax-compliant in all 50 states and offers global payroll across 185+ countries and 50 languages.HCM features include recruiting, performance management, learning, benefits, time tracking, surveys and headcount planning, which are all tightly integrated. The recruiting module pulls from performance data and internal org charts so that you can hire based on actual gaps and future plans.Rippling IT is what you'd use to provision apps, manage devices and enforce security policies automatically. Onboarding and offboarding become nearly hands-free: you set the rules, Rippling handles the logistics.Rippling Spend gives you real-time visibility into company spending. You can issue corporate cards, manage reimbursements and route bills through customizable approval workflows.Rippling connects with over 600 apps — including Google Workspace, Slack, Zoom, GitHub, Asana, Zendesk, Notion, Dropbox, Amazon, LinkedIn, HubSpot and Mailchimp — earning the best-in-class award for extensibility.Newer features include shift scheduling based on forecasted demand, goal tracking by team or department, and content creation with a custom course builder.According to our data, 95% of users would recommend Rippling for HR — especially if you’re looking for cross-functional control without the silos.User reviews appreciated the platform for its user-friendliness, integrations and automation. However, many people mentioned issues with support services and workflow delays.Pricing is available on request. Contact SelectHub for a quote.Our Research Process for RipplingI created a scorecard in our selection platform to compare Rippling with other top HRMS tools that included ADP Workforce Now, SuccessFactors, Paylocity and PDS Vista. I also browsed the vendor’s webpage, paying special attention to their latest feature releases.Additionally, I signed up for the vendor’s two-hour on-demand demo to understand the platform’s functionality and features. I also read user reviews on G2, Capterra, TrustRadius, Gartner and Software Advice to see how real-life users feel about it.",

              "reviewBody": "Rippling makes a big promise: one system to manage your entire workforce, covering recruiting, payroll, benefits, and even IT and analytics. What should set it apart isn’t just how many boxes it ticks, but how those pieces talk to each other.The platform runs on super groups and employee graphs, which translate into automatic role-based permissions and a single source of truth for employee data, respectively. In theory, that means less double entry, fewer sync issues and faster turnaround for everything from onboarding to analytics.From what I saw in the product demo, it seems to deliver on that pitch, especially when paired with Workflow Studio, Rippling’s automation builder. HR teams can cut days’ worth of repetitive tasks, and it seems some organizations are already reaping the benefits. For example, Compass Coffee shaved 15 hours off monthly admin work and sped up onboarding by 6x after switching.That said, user sentiment splits depending on where you look. G2 reviews are glowing. Reddit? Not so much. Several users reported botched pay runs, buggy updates and lackluster support, particularly for international payroll and Canadian teams.ADP Workforce Now offers stronger payroll reliability in these scenarios, with AI-powered anomaly detection that catches errors before they hit paychecks, a safeguard Rippling's automation doesn't consistently match. So while Rippling claims to handle any worker type, the experience may vary in practice.When it comes to advanced needs, Rippling struggles to compete with SAP SuccessFactors, which delivers deeper workforce insights and more mature talent management with regulatory compliance and global labor law support. However, Rippling offers time tracking and benefits enrollment that are comparable to mid-market competitor Paylocity, with the bonus of broader IT provisioning.Cost-wise, it’s modular — compensation, analytics and scheduling come as extras, though most buyers say the pricing holds up well against similar tools.Bottom line: For HR teams at mid-sized to large companies, Rippling can be a serious time-saver, especially if you're juggling multiple departments or international workers. However, smaller teams will get more out of it in terms of employee engagement with fewer moving parts to trip over."
