1. How to Select the Best Work Force Management
Software for your Company
2. Choosing an HR Management Software can easily
be one of the most daunting tasks for the
management.
3. Important factors that must be considered when evaluating a
Human Resource Management System
4. Features
and
Modules
There are all kinds of HRMS software that offer a variety of
features. However, other than the basics (employee
information database, attendance tracking, etc.) a
comprehensive and robust software must include the
following features/modules:
Project Management: Offers an easy-to-follow road map
which leads to project completion within the set time frame.
Training Management: Helps to bring the required changes in
the workplace by improving employee performance and
increasing the overall efficiency.
Employee Self Service Management: Provides an organized
view of the company personnel where individual entries of
employees can be updated along with the company
information. It can be of great help to both the managers and
the employees who can self-serve for routine tasks.

5. Scope
of
Scalability
Businesses are meant to grow, at least under favourable
circumstances. However, a business which is not prepared to
scale can come under tremendous pressure when trying times
knock.
Thus, just like other components of the business,
the Workforce Management System Software should be
scalable. Its efficiency and capacity should not degrade when
the number of employees boom to 3, or even 4 digits!

6. Mobile
and
Social
Capabilities
3
A competitive business cannot afford to ignore mobile
support in its IT infrastructure, and HRMS is a part of it. With
mobile connectivity, an HRMS program can allow the
employees to submit attendance, work reports, etc. on the go.
In fact, they don’t even need to be on the business premises
to do that. Another facet of HRMS’s social capabilities is
recruitment. The business can identify top talent on the social
media websites and also show a promising and vibrant facet
of the company on these portals.
7. Customer
Support
4
Gone are the days of technical manuals and guides. The
workers of today are tech-savvy and can get around a new
software in no time.
However, an elaborate HR Software can be difficult to fully
grasp. Even if the management is able to get it working, it is
possible they might overlook some of the best features
available that come with it.
Also, they might need help in times of scaling. This is why
excellent customer support is one of the most important
factors to consider when comparing multiple HR software.
8. Compliance
5
A business has to meet certain IT standards to be compliant.
Failure in this can lead to huge fines and penalties. For
instance, compromising with an employees’ private
information can easily warrant a legal action against the
company.
9. Reliability
6
Since a Workforce Management System Software often sits
at the heart of the entire business, mainly because of its
reliance on the employees, it is important that it is decent
enough in terms of reliability.
It is hard to find a software that is entirely free of bugs. Still,
the management must check that it isn’t that bad as to pose a
major risk. One way to ensure this is to see what experts have
to say. There are many reviews shared on the internet by
many management gurus that can be referred to.
10. User
Interface
7
HR management is no rocket science. Thus, there is no need
for an over the top interface that has all kinds of segments
and components.
The UI should be simple yet effective. Navigating through all
the tabs should be simple and easy, and the flow should be
smooth.
11. Real Time
Reports
8
Making decisions is the toughest job of an HR manager. To
make the right ones, they need information immediately
when needed.
For instance, if layoffs become inevitable some day, then real-
time performance reports of the employees can help them
easily identify the worst performing ones and thus, quickly
come to a decision.
12. Employees are the backbone of every company. Thus, it is best to get the
most reliable and refined HR software available in the market.
With the right product, a company can benefit in many ways such as
• Limited HR staff requirement
• Easy decision making
• Improved communication
• Risk mitigation
