Switching from BambooHR to FirmWorks
Keep your employee directory, onboarding, and leave handling. Get invoicing, projects, chat, and notes in the same workspace.
What you keep
- Employee directory with roles, contact details, and per-employee onboarding checklists.
- Leave requests with reason, type, and a manager-approval queue.
- Audit trail of who changed what for compliance reporting.
What you gain
- Native invoicing with Thai VAT/withholding tax — handled in the same product.
- Projects with tasks, kanban boards, and a per-project activity timeline.
- Internal chat and a notes/wiki for SOPs and team comms.
What’s better
Southeast-Asian data residency by default
Employee data lives in Singapore (ap-southeast-1) — appropriate for Thai-market employers, with shorter latency than US-hosted HR tools.
