* How much does HR software cost? — Short answer:

The most common model for small- to medium-sized HR software pricing is on a per-employee per-month subscription.

The costs start at modest figures although they will vary according to the number of modules you contract for, the number of employees and the features you select.

Does it support single sign-on (SSO) or multi-factor authentication (MFA)? — Short answer:

Yes, these are standard security features for most HR software.

SSO allows employees to log in to multiple applications with a single set of credentials, improving user experience and security.

MFA requires an additional verification step (like a code from an app or a text message) beyond a password, significantly increasing security.

Cost & ROI

Will it integrate with third-party payroll providers? — Short answer:

Many HR systems offer native integrations with popular third-party payroll providers. If you use an external payroll service, it’s essential to confirm that the HR software can seamlessly connect to it, automatically transferring employee data, hours worked, and other relevant information.

What is the difference between Customisation and Configuration? — Short answer:

Configuration is simply the setting up or switching on of parameters and rules within the software; Customisation Is modification of the original software, often meaning radical changes, which can be costly

How configurable are HR systems? — Short answer:

Levels of configurability varies by vendor. A configurable system allows you to:

Brand the software with your own colours and logos

Build workflows and notifications to match your company’s processes.

Set parameters for company-specific rules such as holidays or overtime

Build work patterns for individuals or groups

Create custom fields to track specific data points.

Set up different permission levels for various roles.

Tailor reports and dashboards to your needs.

The more configurable a system, the more it can do for you.
