eHorizon HRMS as featured in The Standard

The East African Standard reviewed eHorizon Human Resource Management System (HRMS) in their quarterly IT Survey. Here's what they had to say:

eHorizon HRMS: A Truly Integrated Solution?
It's rich in functionality, user-friendly and exceptionally flexible. Better yet, it's modular approach means that you don't need to spend a fortune to get your hands on it.

Software Technologies Ltd. (STL) released its first version of eHorizon Human Resource Management System (HRMS) in 1995 - it was the first Kenyan designed and developed integrated HR and Payroll systems on an RDBMS (Relational Database Management System).

Since then eHorizon HRMS has gone from strength to strength, boasting clients such as British American Tobacco (BAT), Citibank, General Motors, Kencell, and Securicor. No mean feat for a company who started off in 1991 with 5 people in a small office in Westlands.

Today eHorizon HRMS is recognized as one of the most powerful, functional and versatile software packages for human resources available globally.

What makes this HR system better than the rest?
Unlike other systems, eHorizon HRMS really does save time and money. By facilitating more effective management of procedures, and enabling an organization to attract, train, assess, manage and reward its people more effectively, the HR department provides dramatically extended value to the organization.

Furthermore, eHorizon HRMS represents the latest thinking in HR practices, the most sophisticated technology (it's even web-enabled), and the most flexible approach to managing constantly changing business processes.

Payroll, Personnel and Time & Attendance can all be rolled into one
Payroll, Personnel and Time & Attendance modules are all tightly integrated so you get an enterprise wide solution that maintains ALL aspects of Human Resources. Not only does the system's modular architecture lets you choose exactly what you need, but the integration between the modules provides the security and integrity of data needed when running today's complex organizations.

eHorizon HRMS also incorporates the latest technology available today by utilizing biometric FingerScan technology to uniquely identify any individual.

Why use "FingerScan" Technology?
Organizations with large numbers of workers, a high turnover of casual workers or a high use of contract/part-time workers, all use Time and Attendance applications. So what makes eHorizon Time & Attendance so special? It uses the human fingerprint to verify a person's identity.

Easy to use, FingerScan technology is better than keys, cards, passwords and PINs. The human fingerprint cannot be forged, memorized, altered, stolen or duplicated. And what's more, FingerScan can cost-effectively reduce risk, limit liability, and protect the privacy of everyone concerned.

FingerScan can also be effectively used in clocking employee movement, controlling access to areas and verifying employee identity at any time such as salary payment time. Some companies have even extended this functionality to identifying employee dependants at corporate facilities such as medical clinics.

"A Truly Integrated HR Solution?"
Isn't that what all software solutions claim to be? Not all, but often the ones that do cause a multitude of headaches at the implementation stage. There's another reason why eHorizon is different: all the solutions of the eHorizon HRMS suite are PRE-integrated. And what's more, the eHorizon HRMS is designed around "open" architecture standards, so you know you will be able to interface it with any of your existing business applications.
