Onboarding admin dropped by half

We had leave in a shared spreadsheet for six years. This was overdue. Custom reporting an HR manager can drive unaided. 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. Worth the migration effort, which is not something I say often.

What works

Applicant tracking well above its price point. Leave requests and approvals happen on the phone without training. Reporting on headcount and turnover is available without asking IT.

What does not

Reporting is adequate rather than strong.

Used for 2 to 5 years

Onboarding admin dropped by half

Managers approve leave from their phones now, which was the whole point. Custom reporting an HR manager can drive unaided. 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. If you are weighing it up, do the trial with your own data and you will see it.

What works

A workflow builder that removes routine approval admin. Onboarding checklists removed most of the first week paperwork. Leave requests and approvals happen on the phone without training.

What does not

Data is hosted offshore, which our information officer had to sign off.

Our employment equity return took hours, not weeks

Managers approve leave from their phones now, which was the whole point. Custom reporting an HR manager can drive unaided. 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. If you are weighing it up, do the trial with your own data and you will see it.

What works

Flexible enough leave rules to model BCEA correctly. The employee file holds everything in one place with proper permissions. Onboarding checklists removed most of the first week paperwork.

What does not

Recruitment is a separate module at a separate price.

The audit trail saved us at a CCMA hearing

There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. Worth the migration effort, which is not something I say often.

Onboarding admin dropped by half

The employee file being in one place made our last inspection straightforward. Applicant tracking well above its price point. 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. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

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.
