In many companies, onboarding still consists of emails, Excel lists, and manual handovers.
The problem:
This type of HR workflows doesn't scale.

- Media breaks
- delays

- Tasks are created automatically
- Meetings are being planned (schedule meetings)
- Tickets for IT and system access are created (create tickets)
- Forms are provided (form creation)

Workflow automation instead of a reminder culture
Many companies are trying to solve inefficient processes with more control.
But real Workflow automation replaces manual coordination with clear logic:
- 30/60/90 day role-based plans
- A central workflow builder instead of individual solutions
- Reusable workflow templates
- System integration with HRIS, ATS, Slack, and Microsoft Teams
The result:
Less operational work, more overview — and higher process reliability.
Transparency through monitoring & reporting
A good workflow doesn't end with automation.
It makes progress visible.
By Workflow monitoring and Real time monitoring see HR and managers:
- Which tasks are open
- Where bottlenecks occur
- Which steps have already been completed
At the same time, Automate reporting — without additional tools or manual evaluations.
