Pros
What we appreciated right from the start was the simplicity – getting started with basic HR administration was straightforward and well-organised.
What has made us stay and continue to invest in the platform is the combination of its breadth and the fact that it is a tool actually used by managers – not just by HR. It helps us to follow up and lead in a more structured way.
What I like most about Heartpace is how easy it is to get an overview of the organisation and my colleagues. It’s also been very useful for us that we can add multiple modules, so we can have many of our processes brought together in a single tool – for example, performance reviews, pay reviews and staff surveys.
CatalystOne gives you great freedom to make changes yourself, making it possible to customise HR processes to your own needs. It offers fast support and a community platform where you can find information and inspiration for what you want to create or develop in the system.
CatalystOne has recently given their interface a facelift, bringing the design into the 21st century. This reflects a broader effort over the past year to significantly strengthen product development—not only in terms of aesthetics, but also functionality. We highly value this continuous development.
In addition, their support team is very responsive, with most requests either resolved or at least initiated within 1–2 working days. This level of service is greatly appreciated.

Cons
I’m not sure if I’d say it’s the one I like the least, but you do need to set aside time when implementing the system and its modules to get the most out of it. You do have that time – but sometimes it can feel like a hurdle, so you end up deprioritising it.
I have nothing negative to say about Heartpace; it has lived up to our expectations. The system has evolved considerably since we’ve had it, so the aspects I previously had reservations about have been significantly improved.
As a larger organisation, you may find that CatalystOne in some cases appears to have been originally developed with smaller companies in mind. Several modules are tied to certain standard roles that don't always match the needs of a larger organisation.
In addition, there are limited opportunities to work with "if" logic in workflows for onboarding, internal changes and offboarding. Overall, the workflow functionality has significant development potential - even though it works satisfactorily today.
Some functionalities and modules are not fully optimized. For example, the absence module is not particularly well suited for the Danish market, which can create occasional challenges for us.
Similarly, the Salary Review module lacks flexibility for companies with commercial bonus structures, limiting its usability in that area.
