Managers use it without being chased

The employee file being in one place made our last inspection straightforward. Skills development and B-BBEE scorecard support. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

What works

Skills development and B-BBEE scorecard support. Onboarding checklists removed most of the first week paperwork. The employee file holds everything in one place with proper permissions.

What does not

Recruitment is a separate module at a separate price.

No real understanding of South African labour law

The leave rules never matched the BCEA properly and we gave up correcting them. The thing worth knowing is that the parts we were sold on never worked the way they were demonstrated. The gaps are the kind that create work rather than save it. It may suit a simpler business than ours.

What works

The employee database itself is fine.

What does not

Support hours do not overlap with our working day. The interface is dated and slow. Leave rules never matched South African requirements.

Onboarding admin dropped by half

We had leave in a shared spreadsheet for six years. This was overdue. Employment equity plans built to survive an inspection. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. If you are weighing it up, do the trial with your own data and you will see it.

Industrial relations specialists who will attend the CCMA with you. The employee file holds everything in one place with proper permissions. Onboarding checklists removed most of the first week paperwork.

The employee file being in one place made our last inspection straightforward. Employment equity plans built to survive an inspection. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. Two years in and nobody has suggested we look at alternatives.

What works

Employment equity plans built to survive an inspection. Reporting on headcount and turnover is available without asking IT. Onboarding checklists removed most of the first week paperwork.

We went back to spreadsheets after nine months

It was clearly built for a different labour market. The thing worth knowing is that the parts we were sold on never worked the way they were demonstrated. The gaps are the kind that create work rather than save it. It may suit a simpler business than ours.

The employee database itself is fine.

What does not

Support hours do not overlap with our working day. Leave rules never matched South African requirements. The interface is dated and slow.
