Ability to integrate Ciphr’s core HR system with other business applications will ‘transform HR teams into commercial enablers’
Today, Ciphr is launching Ciphr Connect: an ecosystem of trusted business applications that integrate seamlessly with Ciphr’s HR and recruitment solutions, connecting people data across the organisation and enabling HR departments to work more strategically and effectively.
Commenting on the launch at the CIPD HR and Recruitment Software Show 2018, Chris Berry, managing director at Ciphr, said: “In many organisations, HR is a strategic partner that is closely involved with functions across the business. Linking an organisation’s specialist systems together via Ciphr Connect will give HR departments better visibility of crucial people metrics, enabling teams to make smarter, more timely, decisions.”
He added: “Ciphr Connect links and provides connectivity between Ciphr and an organisation’s other systems – whether that’s so they can measure the effectiveness of L&D programmes, discover the correlation between employee engagement and wellbeing, or verify the work history and identity of new recruits – giving them an integrated, holistic view of both people effectiveness and organisational performance.”
Megan Hope, partner manager at Ciphr, said: “Integrating your core people system with other HR, L&D and business applications will free up your busy HR team to spend more time on the strategic people initiatives that really matter to your organisation, transforming the department from an administrative function to a commercial enabler.”
