Should we start a new group for discussing 'HR Software'?

I've been pondering this for a while.

We get a lot of threads about HR software. There is quite a bit of duplication, although some useful nuanced perspectives - e.g. from those who work in SMEs, charities, etc.

Would a dedicated group here on the Community help - or perhaps a wiki to which we could all continually add from our own experience?

If a group... 'open', or 'member-only'? 

Thoughts?

  • Hi Steve

    I think this is a good idea. I've not been involved in choosing an HRIS, but if I needed to the Community would be the first place I'd look for suggestions.

    People are always going to be looking for different things depending on business size, need for link to payroll, ability to transfer existing data etc, so it would be good to have a central place to find good (and bad!) feedback about the products available.

    Yes. The only caveat is that we would need to ensure we only get peer-to-per recommendations (as we do now) and that people frame the negatives as 'disadvantages'.
