I can't comment on HRdownloads' marketing approach...

I can't comment on HRdownloads' marketing approach - but as a customer - who sought them out - and has been a client now for over 2 years - their service has always been fantastic.
Their advisors are knowledgeable and responsive. Their customer/account team - including Matthew D - is such a pleasure to talk to. He's proactive, positive and his information is always so useful. I would definitely recommend them for small companies who don't have an HR professional on staff. They are filling an important need that small and medium companies have and I think they do a great job!! Highly recommend!!! Don't judge the service they provide with their sales approach as you'd be doing yourself a disservice if did have a need. I also want to note - that as a customer - I've never found their communication approach excessive or invasive. They touch base with me twice yearly - more as a courtesy check in which I always appreciate.
