How the Senior Manager of People Operations at Kustomer transformed their HR operations

The Challenge

After rapid growth and an acquisition, Kustomer had teams across the US and Spain. Onboarding, reviews, and reporting were manual, slow, and fragmented across systems—making it hard to deliver a consistent experience or access workforce insights.

The Solution

Kustomer selected Bob to digitize onboarding, automate performance reviews, and consolidate people data across all sites. They connected Bob with existing tools and set up 360° feedback, goal setting, and manager access to key metrics.

The Results

Using Bob, Kustomer maintains consistent review cycles and onboarding across all teams. HR saves time, managers track performance directly, and new hires are onboarded with clarity and structure from day one.

There are many platforms that specialize in one specific area of HR, whether performance or onboarding. We wanted an innovative platform that did a bit of everything, supported our overall goals, and would grow with us.
