Good platform for all HR related tasks - Recruitment, Payroll, Database, Appraisal, Leave...

Reviewed on 9/06/2022

Pros

Overall keka is a great product. With a very competitive price range, it gives a great deal of features to work with.

Here are few things I like about Keka:

1. Repository for documents - you can store all employee-related documents in soft copy
2. Managing assets inventory - you can manage the database of assets and its inventory in keka
3. Performance appraisal - with its comprehensive & customizable appraisal system you can tailor the appraisal module as per your requirement. The autogenerated letter after appraisal letter are a life saver for those of you who want to skip the manual work of creating appraisal letters
4. Leave management - it allows you to manage the leaves
5. The remote clock in feature is very promising - since we are a remote working company with flexible working hours, we do not use this feature. But it will be very helpful to those who are looking to time their employees.
6. Surveys - it is also very easy to create and send surveys to collect feedback from people within the org
7. Keka also allows us to post content/make announcement/take a poll within the platform.
8. Our finance team has also set up our tax modules in keka - makes filing for tax a piece of cake
9. From sourcing to hiring to onboarding - we do it all in keka

Cons

All in all I do like Keka as a product. Based on my requirement here are some things which I do not like:
1. Surveys - when we create surveys the only option is to send it to the whole organization. It would be great if we have the option to send it to specific people as well. Felt this need to particularly take feedbacks through surveys for new joiner
2. Recruitment - The two problems I face with Keka hire is not having the option of sending trigger emails which are customized for each stages of the hiring process. Other issue is how the conversation we have with the candidate via email is not visible in keka - we have to go and check gmail for the conversation. This is a huge area for improvement
3. Integrations - there are still a lot of product integrations which are missing in our case - slack for instance.

The worst software and even worse customer care

Reviewed on 5/02/2019

horrible.

horrible.

Pros

absolutely nothing. it's badly designed. and if you contact the customer service for help, they don't know how to help you.

Cons

it's not user friendly. the customer service is abysmal. They only have one way to solve everything and that's by telling us to generate reports.

On top level, my experience with Keka was satisfactory. It helped us in automating all basic and necessary HR functions. This eased employee's onboarding and exit process and also their working durations. Salary calculation, salary slips, tax calculation and educating employees about new and old regimes and other important forms was also something that Keka helped us with.

Pros

Keka can be a good HRMS software for small and budding enterprises. It helps employees with daily tasks like Attendance Management, Work time calculation, Leave application and approval. We also frequented reimbursement filing, claiming, and uploading supporting documents via Keka which was flexible.

Cons

We encountered efficiency troubles while using Keka. The response time was terrible and there was no official mail or communication from Keka's support team during off hours. To add to these troubles, downtime usually occurred while FBP and investment declaration window as the systems were not equipped to handle huge loads.

It becomes extremely difficult for anyone to keep track of their log in and log out and land up getting pay cut due to half day. Keka has helped me know the time of punch in and out and I don't get salary cuts

Pros

Keka has a unique feature of tracking your attendance ,your log in and log out time with benefits of applying leave and checking balance of your leave. It is so simple that without even training any person would be able to understand the usage. Not only that in keka I can know about birthday,years of completion, finance related summary and our pay slip. U like other tool downloading pay slip is easier with no complication of multiple times password protection

Cons

I think keka should have multiple months download for payslip.

We depend on Keka nearly every day. Our cloud storage at box.com is limited to files under 5gb. Because we often have InDesign source files larger than this, we have to split the archives in order to store them in the cloud. Keka makes this super easy and is very reliable with great 7zip compression among other multi-part file splitting formats.

Pros

Keka is fantastic. We depend on it almost every day. Oh, and also, their isopod logo/icon is pretty great too.

Cons

The single most important improvement that Keka needs is the ability to *create* RAR files. It extracts them perfectly fine, but I understand that due to licensing issues they are unable to implement RAR creation into the software. There was an ancient beta version that did this which you can search out, but the RAR files it creates are unreliable. That's the only negative I can find about the great little piece of software.

I am pleased with my overall experience with Keka. It is easy to use and stay connected with my team members. Even if I am on leave, I can get updates about the task and the activities are happening at my workplace. It's one of the simplest and efficient software, I have used.

Pros

The key features of this software allows a quick overviews for attendance, leave balance, performance, and most importantly, it allows me to stay connected with my team. I am using this software on my phone and lap top daily. I prefer the desktop version more, however, the mobile version is helpful on the go.

Cons

On the desktop version on home it shows generalized screen. I think it should be more interactive. Other than that I love using Keka.
