## Reviews

### "Feedback from Henry Ford Academy" — 4.0/5

> **Olga** | *13 October 2025* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The Ciphr Learning Management System (LMS) offers the essential core functionality and flexibility required to create the learning environment we envisioned for our users. It also provides our dealer management team with the necessary reporting capabilities and tools to manage team training effectively. We've also noted recent improvements in the system update process and related communications.
> 
> **Cons**: In the past, we faced difficulties with prolonged resolution times for system issues. Nevertheless, we now recognise that company-wide improvements have fostered more efficient concern resolution and established more robust processes for addressing system-related problems.
> 
> Since its launch four years ago, the system's functionality has evolved considerably. During this period, the company has also undergone internal restructuring. Overall, we are pleased with our current relationships and the status of our contract.

### "CIPHR Payroll" — 5.0/5

> **Fiona** | *9 February 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ciphr Payroll - importing timesheets is quick, efficient and accurate.  The system is user-friendly and processing is faster overall thanks to HR integration.
> 
> **Cons**: Ciphr Payroll - The reporting side seems complicated, likely due to limited training following the recent implementation.  This would have been a useful exercise to cover during the implementation period.  We have avoided the rollback process as it feels long-winded and it is not possible to switch to the next person when in query mode.
> 
> We have recently implemented Ciphr Payroll and the experience was made seamless thanks to the outstanding support from the team, in particular \[sensitive content hidden\]&#10; From day one, they guided us through the setup process, patiently answering all our questions and ensuring everything was configured perfectly for what is a very complex payroll.&#10;&#10;Their professionalism, responsiveness, and deep knowledge of the software made the transition smooth and stress-free. They went above and beyond to ensure our team was comfortable with every feature, and their hands-on approach truly made a difference.&#10;&#10;Even though we are in the early stages of implementation, I would highly recommend Ciphr to any business looking to modernise their payroll operations, especially their support team—they are 1 of the reasons our implementation was such a success\!

### "Adoption of Ciphr by Southern Hospice Group" — 4.0/5

> **Paul** | *4 September 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ciphr is generally easy to use and employee satisfaction for self-service features is high. We have found Ciphr to be flexible both from a system configuration perspective and the willingness of the team (consultants, technical support) to assist and help provide solutions to issues.
> 
> **Cons**: There are a few areas which are either not well integrated, easy to use or well featured as we would like. In particular, Paylink configuration is complex, holiday entitlements are laborious to set up and Timesheet functionality is limited.
> 
> SHG had very challenging timescales in which to implement the HR system and Ciphr were willing to work with us to help us achieve that goal. Ciphr have been easy to work with and the support and guidance through implementation has generally been very good.

### "Core HRIS - consistent and reliable" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *9 February 2026* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: System reliability is strong, allowing consistent functionality for users and integrations from our ATS and into payroll. &#10;&#10;Report writer is extremely useful, with adaptable and powerful configuration options without needing coding knowledge&#10;&#10;The ability for HR system admins to configure new areas of the system enables increased functionality without additional cost investment. We have therefore been able to create areas to help us achieve our DEEI and ER priorities without additional cost.
> 
> **Cons**: Not many cons. It is a good system. The service desk response times can be delayed during busier periods.

### "Great experience with new version of CIPHR & Clients support" — 5.0/5

> **Aliya** | *9 February 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The new CIPHR version is very logical. Your customer support from \[sensitive content hidden\]  is absolutely fantastic\!
> 
> **Cons**: CIPHR has a steep learning curve, and reporting could be time-consuming. We have had some issues with CIPHR payroll / payroll bureau since Sam has left.
> 
> Overall experience has been excellent. The new CIPHR version is very logical and easy to navigate. The support from the client support team has been outstanding, with special thanks to \[sensitive content hidden\]  for his great assistance.
