Evolving businesses and workforces demand agile HR platforms. Find out why you need to ditch legacy HRIS and embrace cloud-based extensible platforms that can adapt to your unique and ever evolving needs.
Imagine this: You are days away from a massive product launch, needing hundreds of new customer service reps onboard – fast. But your HR tech, anchored in the past, throws up roadblocks. Legacy systems like HRIS simply can't adapt to today's volatile business landscape. Acquiring a whole new platform? Time-consuming, expensive, and fraught with security concerns. Data silos, high development costs, potential breakdowns, user adoption – the list goes on.
This is the harsh reality for many organizations clinging to outdated HR tech. In a world where businesses evolve at breakneck speed, the HR department, the "command center" of change management, can't afford to be bogged down. The solution? Extensible HCM platforms!
Why Your Next HCM Needs Extensibility
First, let us understand extensibility in the context of HCMs. Consider your HCM platform as a giant Lego set for building your dream HR department. You've got the basic bricks for hiring, onboarding, and performance management, but what if you need an extensive background verification or employee health insurance integration for new hires? Extensibility means tech isn't rigid, it can grow and change with your needs, making it more flexible and future-proof.
Think of it like Lego's Technic sets, where you can add specialized gears, motors, and sensors to bring your creation to life. With an extensible HCM platform, you can add these "Lego add-ons" in ways including:
- Customizable features: Like building your own mini-robots (code) with unique bricks, you can create custom features tailored to your unique company processes.
- Third-party integrations: Connect your HCM platform to external "Lego sets" (other software) like payroll or learning management systems, expanding its reach and functionality.
In today's dynamic business landscape where HR needs evolve rapidly, waiting for months-long development cycles and user training simply isn't an option. Citizen development with business users creating solutions themselves, seems like a tempting answer to alleviate IT burden. However, it introduces potential security and governance issues.
The ideal solution lies in a native HCM environment with seamless extensibility. This means integrations and extensions seamlessly inherit the platform's security features, creating a "plug-and-play" framework for complex scenarios. Imagine a building with pre-approved, secure Lego bricks! This not only empowers business users with self-service options but also ensures everything operates within established security measures. This is the "democratization" of extensibility – giving HR the agility it needs without compromising security or control.
By prioritizing native extensibility, organizations can move beyond the limitations of traditional HCM and empower HR to adapt to changing needs quickly and securely.
