Themes paraphrased from public reviews on G2 and similar sites, not quotes.
What most HiBob reviews leave out
- Hosted on AWS Ireland with Germany as backup; no US hosting option found, so US data residency needs confirming.
- Trust Center recommends Enterprise SSO plus 2FA; one third party says SCIM is included on all plans.
- Acquired Pento (UK payroll, 2024) and Mosaic (planning, 2025), so payroll is still maturing outside the UK.
- Vendr-attributed median contract about $46.5K/yr is a secondary-source figure.
- The pricing page is a demo form with module-based demo topics, which hints at modular quoting.
