Choosing the right HRMS for your company?

Are you using any payroll and HR Software for your company?

Like the majority, we do not imagine a company set to shrink. Thinking that your company is in the majority and is aiming to grow, expanding business and manpower, you will need an HRMS that will grow with you; that will grow with your company requirements not only for the current workforce, but well into the future too. In many a times, the key is to identify the future requirements and build into your current system requirements and bear it in mind throughout the selection process.

We mention some of the widely used parameters for the selection of the HRMS for a company as a matrix below

Conventional Payroll & HR systems

Multiple products / systems for Payroll, HR, Time Attendance, Recruitment, Performance Management, Asset Management, ESS etc.

Monolithic / non modular. Forced to take all built in modules

Various Data needs to be synced or entered multiple times in various modules, best example being the Time Attendance and Payroll interface

Multiple vendors for various modules offering updates and support

HR updates all the employee applications and approval details

Paper based applications, approvals, documents and records

HR tracks the employee and company related alerts and informs the employee (like document expiry and other critical details)

HR / Payroll team generates selective reports for management on periodic intervals.

Payroll means Payroll register and Pay slip only. HR uses spreadsheets for other requirements.

Straight forward payroll computation, enter the leaves, the days worked, the overtime, the deductions manually

HR uses filing cabinets for storing employee and company related documents

No online or mobile app capabilities

Be contend with what you have got, no (or less) option for customizing as per your exact requirements

Product looks promising, but support services are pathetic.
