Why BambooHR teams bring in HRBench

  • Advanced reporting and benchmarks sit on the Elite plan. BambooHR keeps customizable dashboards and its benchmarking feature on the top Elite tier. Teams on Core or Pro get standard reports and exports. HRBench adds 45+ ready-made metrics and workforce benchmarks on top of any BambooHR plan, with no upgrade required.
  • Deeper questions still end in a spreadsheet. Reviewers consistently say BambooHR reporting is hard to customize, so power users export to Excel or a BI tool for anything granular. HRBench answers those questions directly, with metrics ready the day BambooHR connects.
  • BambooHR shows what happened, not what is coming. The platform reports current and historical data. It does not forecast turnover risk or model future outcomes. HRBench adds 25+ predictive metrics, including turnover risk by team and manager.
  • Recruiting and HR data live in separate modules. Hiring sits in one place, headcount and time off in another. Connecting a hiring cohort to who was still there a year later means manual work. HRBench brings your BambooHR people and hiring data into one model and links hiring to retention.

What a BambooHR shop builds with HRBench

  • Track headcount, turnover, retention, and tenure by department and location over time.
  • Measure time-off use and PTO balances, and track absence rates by team.
  • See worked hours and overtime by team from BambooHR Time Tracking, and flag capacity gaps.
  • Follow the recruiting funnel: time to fill, pipeline by stage, applications per opening, and recruiter workload.
  • Link hiring to retention by connecting hire cohorts to 90-day and first-year retention, so you can see which hiring choices last.
  • Report on benefit enrollment and dependent coverage across the workforce.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you don't find the information you're looking for, please don't hesitate to contact us directly, and our team will be happy to assist you.

01

Does HRBench integrate with BambooHR?

Yes. HRBench connects directly to BambooHR and reads your people, hiring, time-off, and time-tracking data, then turns it into 45+ ready-made workforce and hiring metrics. The connection is included, and most teams are live in about 4 to 6 weeks.

02

What BambooHR data does HRBench read?

HRBench reads employee and employment records, your org structure by location and department, time off and PTO balances, worked hours from time tracking, benefit enrollments and dependents, and your recruiting data (candidates, applications, jobs, interview stages, and recruiters). It does not read compensation or payroll figures, offer records, interview scorecards, or applicant EEO data from BambooHR. Anything that depends on pay or those recruiting fields comes from another connected system.

03

What can HRBench measure from BambooHR data?

From BambooHR, HRBench measures headcount and growth, turnover and retention, tenure, time-off and absence, worked hours and overtime, benefit enrollment, and the recruiting funnel from application to hire. Because HRBench reads both your HR and hiring data, it can also link hiring cohorts to how long those people stay. Pay-based metrics like labor cost are not available from BambooHR alone, since compensation does not flow from the connection.

04

Does HRBench replace BambooHR reporting?

No. HRBench sits on top of BambooHR, which stays your system of record for HR and hiring. HRBench reads that data and adds the metric layer, benchmarks, and predictive models that would otherwise take a BI tool or the Elite plan. You keep running BambooHR exactly as you do now.

05

Does HRBench work with BambooHR Hiring and Time Tracking?

Yes. HRBench reads BambooHR Hiring, so your candidates, applications, jobs, interview stages, and recruiters flow into the recruiting metrics. It also reads BambooHR Time Tracking for worked hours and overtime. Together with core HR data, that covers hiring, headcount, time off, and hours in one place.

06

Can HRBench connect our BambooHR hiring data to employee retention?

Yes, and this is a common reason teams connect BambooHR. Because HRBench reads both your BambooHR hiring data and your employee records, it can follow a hire from application through their first year and show which hiring choices lead to people who stay. You can see 90-day and first-year retention by department or recruiter, which BambooHR reporting does not do on its own.

07

Can HRBench show how our BambooHR numbers compare to other companies?

Yes, and for every HRBench customer, not just those on one plan. BambooHR offers benchmarking, but it sits on the Elite tier and covers a set list like turnover, eNPS, diversity, and tenure. HRBench includes workforce benchmarks for every customer across a wider set of metrics, so you can see how your headcount, turnover, retention, and time-off numbers compare without upgrading your BambooHR plan.

08

Does HRBench include engagement surveys with BambooHR data?

Yes. Every HRBench customer gets engagement surveys included. Run them alongside your BambooHR data and HRBench ties the results to the workforce metrics, so you can see engagement next to turnover and time-off patterns by team. BambooHR has eNPS on its higher tiers; HRBench's surveys are included for everyone and connected to the full metric set.

09

How long does it take to connect BambooHR to HRBench?

Most teams are live in about 4 to 6 weeks, and smaller organizations are often faster. Setup covers connecting BambooHR, mapping your data, and configuring the metrics and benchmarks you care about. The BambooHR connection itself is included, with no separate integration fee.
