Payroll & HRIS

[belinda]

The company I work for is going to start looking at other payroll?HRIS companies. This is a new process for me, as I have only been involved in putting my input forward, and had nothing to do with running the show.

I have started to put a list of items together, that I would like the system to do and have sent a couple of emails to FrontierSoftware and Talent2 requesting information.

Is there anything else that I should be doing? Any other companies that I should look at.

Hi Belinda,

I think the time has come when you can really consider different software vendors. There are some very smart HR software developers out there now that leave the payroll based HRIS systems for dead. As an example we use Chris21 for payroll, which is strong in that area, and does provide basic historic employee data. However, we then use Cambron for all our employee workplans, appraisals and training. Cambron also links our employee workplans to our corporate plan.

If it was me, I think that I would invest in a provider that does payroll really well but also gives me the option to link to specialist HR/OD software.
