Regardless of whether it is a large enterprise or a small company, human resource management is the most basic corporate affairs. A good human resource management system can improve the work efficiency of the enterprise, optimize the talent selection mechanism, and manage the company more effectively. When building an HRM system, some companies will choose professional HR software, while some companies will choose application building software. The former is more professional, while the latter can save huge costs. "There is no best, only the most suitable", so how should different companies choose?
What is a good HRM software
There are many human resource management software on the market, such as software for recruiting, managing leave balance or tracking employee time. However, software that only does a single function is gradually eliminated, and what has become the mainstream is: an integrated software that can handle the entire personnel affairs, from employee entry to resignation/retirement, all on one platform. There are currently two mainstream options, one is professional HR software, and the other is application building software that can build the personnel system.
4 best HR software choices of 2019
We have selected 4 best human resource software, which meet the conditions and can simplify the human resources work of the enterprise.
SAP eHR
Motivate managers and employees to achieve the best performance by enabling employees to achieve interconnection with corporate goals
SAP eHR is one of the major sectors of SAP ERP. In the ERP field, SAP was the first to work hard in the enterprise application field, and it is now the number one in the global market. SAP started to push some cloud products earlier, combining cloud products with core EHR products deployed by the department. But in general, SAP is more suitable for mature large-scale enterprises, because SAP requires strict and fully standardized processes, and does not support customization based on enterprises, and it is difficult to meet the rapid development and changing needs of small enterprises.
advantage:
1). Comprehensive functions, covering all aspects of HR work: support the entire process of recruitment, deployment, potential development, motivation and ultimately leaving valuable employees, and improve these processes from start to finish;
2) Although the user's secondary development space is small, after the initial software requirements are appropriate, the subsequent operations will be simple and smooth;
3). The system is stable, almost no system crashes, the processing of big data is also very fast, and the daily use feels good.
Disadvantages:
1) The price is high: both the initial product price and implementation cost, or the later service fee are very high, which may be difficult for ordinary enterprises to bear;
2) The implementation has a high barrier to entry, and the technical requirements are relatively high;
3) SAP adapts to stable and standard business processes and is difficult to change. It requires enterprises to adapt to the software. It is not very friendly to small businesses or start-ups with fast-growing and changing needs;
4) The business focus is on big customers, so less attention is paid to unknown or small companies.
Oracle China
Integrated Cloud Applications and Platform Services Integrated Cloud Applications and Platform Services
Undoubtedly, Oracle can be said to be the second largest human resource management system in the world, and it is getting more and more attention from enterprises. Indeed, Oracle, which started as a database, is more adaptable to enterprise customers. Customers can adapt the software according to their own characteristics and provide more comprehensive services, but it is still slightly inferior to SAP in terms of professionalism.
Advantages :
(1) The requirements for enterprise management standardization are lower, the products are more flexible than SAP, and the actual situation of the enterprise is more respected for development, and there are fewer restrictions caused by rigid standardization;
(2) Oracle's product line covers a wider range, and the entire system is more convenient to use.
Disadvantages:
(1) Product prices, follow-up maintenance fees, and service fees are all very high, and ordinary enterprises may bear more pressure;
(2) The business process template is not professional enough, and many software functions cannot be supported, so many things that need to be applied to the process function for approval cannot be met (still a problem that it is difficult to cover all the needs of the enterprise for independent resource management );
(3) Like SAP, the business focus is on large customers, so less attention is paid to unknown or small companies.
Jian Daoyun
Flexible and easy-to-use application building platform-human resources, invoicing, customer management...
Fanruan software is the third largest product after FineBI and FineReport. As an enterprise-oriented application building platform, Jiandaoyun's role in personnel management has always been underestimated. The biggest advantage of this tool is: without code, it can build a salary stub, onboarding, resignation management, etc. Flexible application, especially suitable for domestic small and medium enterprises, as well as subsidiaries and sub-sectors of large groups.
Advantage:
(1) The price is very friendly! Even if the size of the team is small, the free version is enough.
(2) Simple operation. Enterprises can build their own personnel system according to their needs, without code foundation, they can build themselves or apply templates, and they can also make certain custom modifications to the templates (of course, you can also let Jiandaoyun official help build them);
(3) High flexibility. On Jiandao Cloud, not only the personnel system can be built, but also the invoicing, production management and other applications can be built together to facilitate cross-departmental data retrieval and break enterprise data islands;
(4) Open API. It can be connected with other management systems of the enterprise, which is more suitable for enterprises with rapid development and changing needs.
Disadvantages:
Management applications cannot be built directly on mobile phones. Generally, company administrators build them on computers and later employees use them directly on mobile phones.
Orange HRM
Personalized HR Software that Brings Your Employees Together
Orange HRM is a relatively new software, launched in 2017, and can be applied to enterprises of all sizes. Orange HRM can implement functions such as document management, benefits management and employee self-service, including recruitment, employee information management, performance appraisal, and attendance management.
Advantage:
(1) Through the human resource management system, users can centrally control the core human resource functions. The software has designed a basic recruitment template to make it easier to customize user roles.
(2) Centralized employee data enables the company to effectively manage personnel information. Setting selection and filtering criteria is more conducive to quick access to information.
(3) The biggest feature is that it has done well in the modules of vacation, vacation management, recruitment and applicant tracking management. The HR team can use the software to focus on employee performance and use it for evaluation management.
(4) It can be downloaded and tried for free for 30 days, and the platform has more functions than most other open source options.
Disadvantages:
(1) Secondary development is still a problem;
(2) Users cannot access the software remotely and need their own server to host the solution. Or Orange HRM provides a host, but additional charges are required (equivalent to the need to rent a server from Orange HRM, which will be an additional expense);
(3) Even Japanese, Thai, and Arabic are supported, but Chinese is not supported... It is still a bit troublesome for domestic companies to use. I look forward to the day when the official Chinese version will be released.
How to choose HRM software suitable for enterprises?
When it comes to building a personnel management system, professional Hr software is definitely the first choice for many companies. But also pay attention to whether the business focus of the software is large enterprises or small and medium-sized enterprises, the cost of secondary development, the cost of post-service fees, etc., and also consider whether foreign software will have the problem of unsuitability, and then choose the right one. Enterprise software.
In fact, most companies do not need very professional personnel systems (except for large-scale, very stable and mature companies).

It must have complete process functions, low technical requirements, a good sense of use, and support for various function calculations.
