What our customers say about Breathe

‘An awesome HR system’

I love the simplicity of the system.

When we joined in 2013, breatheHR stood out as offering everything a HR department could need, all in one space; since then it has only grown and become even better.

An Administrator Small Business Employee

‘Great system for managing employee holidays - fewer bits of paper too!’

A great first step to using an HR System. Although Breathe HR has lots of really helpful information about how to use the system, everything is fairly intuitive anyway. We are a smallish business with less than 50 staff and very happy with what it provides. Cost effective too.

Trusted Customer

‘East-to-use, awesome software’

The software is simple and just what we needed in the business, highlights have to be the holiday bookings and calendar and absence reporting.
