2. What sets your solutions apart from others in the market, and how do they address the specific needs and challenges faced by HR leaders today ?  

While there are many other solutions in the market and some try to be everything to everyone and others try to be small and simple, we go for the Goldilocks approach and deliver a strong HRMS, that is simple and easy to use with a robust Payroll engine.

3. Can you share any success stories or case studies where your solutions have made a significant impact in a company?

A Current company in the Transportation Sector initially prepared their payroll manually, but later outsourced payroll to a local vendor. However, the company soon realized that the system in place was not efficient and too costly. Also, the system was unable to provide audit trails and exceptional reports. Furthermore, there were complexities in recording complex shift work patterns of employees such as the bus drivers.  In choosing us they found that they were able to retain the control that they desired and easily process payroll for several thousand employees with the confidence that they were always accurate and compliant.

4. In your opinion, what roles should pioneers in the industry play in building the future of work ?

Aa we all struggle to see how our World, Region and Company will settle in a Past Covid environment we need to be open and observant to the new trends that are taking place.   Are we going 100% remote, 50/50, in the office every day or something completely new.   As HR Leaders we need to look at our data and help the board make decisions on how to best manager our workforce.

5. As a solution provider, what are the 3 key takeaways or learnings do you hope attendees will gain from interacting with your company during the event?

First and foremost payroll must always be accurate and compliant, without that you will quickly lose the confidence of your teams. While it might not be exciting, data security is mission critical in this world with individuals and organizations out to cause harm to both your Business and Reputation.  Lastly, if you cant use the HR information to make strategic decisions then your workforce is nothing more than a resource vs Capital that you want to invest in.

6. Finally, can you share any upcoming developments or innovations in your solutions/services that attendees should be excited about?

We are releasing the first phase of our Customer management Utility (CMU) that will allow our customers complete control over their system and configuration and not require outside help to do things such as (Set up new entities, configure SSO,  managing permissions of different users and sub companies,…)
