Because you don\u2019t own it, there is no upfront purchase cost, and you\u2019re not responsible for its upkeep.\n\nThe vendor does all the hard work. Updates are done automatically, and they require almost no downtime and very little IT involvement.\n\nSaaS HR software is generally cloud-based with a <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/products\/hr-software\/\">fully digital HR solution<\/a>, and you will be able to access and manage employee data remotely.\n\nModern businesses are recognising the <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/resources\/taking-hr-digital\/\">big advantages of moving from a manual HR system<\/a> to Saas HR solutions; our whitepaper has 11 of the best. For a detailed overview of HR technology, check out our <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/resources\/hr-technology-guide\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">comprehensive guide to HR technology in 2021<\/a>.\n<h2>What are the common myths about cloud SaaS HR systems?<\/h2>\nWith SaaS HR systems operating on the cloud, many are concerned about moving from traditional HR systems to cloud-based ones.\n\nIf you have concerns about moving your HR to the cloud, you are not alone.\n\nSince the cloud is still thought of as relatively new, and a few stubborn myths have grown up around it.\n\nSo to put your mind at rest, we&#8217;ve collected 6 of the biggest myths and misconceptions about HR in the cloud &#8211; and we&#8217;ve busted them wide open to reveal the truth.\n<h3>Myth 1: HR in the cloud is expensive<\/h3>\n<strong>The truth:<\/strong> Quite the contrary. Cloud implementation and subscription costs are low, and the return on your investment is faster than most other business solutions.\n\nBy automating your HR, you could reduce the costs of your administrative processes by as much as 60%.\n\nAnd because everything is in the cloud, expensive upgrades are a thing of the past. Your solution provider takes care of all that for you.\n<h3>Myth 2: HR in the cloud isn&#8217;t secure<\/h3>\n<strong>The truth:<\/strong> A cloud-based HR solution is likely to be much more secure than your traditional HR department.\n\nThe top HR cloud vendors adopt and conform to the highest security standards &#8211; much higher than the typical in-house IT department.\n\nTo put it bluntly, they can&#8217;t afford to get hacked. That&#8217;s why software is located on secure servers, in locations managed by experts, with emergency power sources and constant back-ups.\n\nYou still need to conduct your own due diligence of course, but a huge number of organisations are now happy to put their business processes in the cloud.\n<h3>Myth 3: HR in the cloud is style over substance<\/h3>\n<strong>The truth: <\/strong>This myth usually stems from traditional HR providers who are experiencing a touch of envy.\n\nAutomated, cloud-based HR solutions are attractively designed, user-friendly and fun, but there&#8217;s a lot more to them than that.\n\nFeatures like dashboards and graphic-rich reports are packed with accurate and informative data.\n\nIf they were all style and no substance, employees wouldn&#8217;t use them &#8211; and employee engagement is something that automated HR solutions pride themselves on.\n<h3>Myth 4: It takes a long time to set up a cloud-based HR solution<\/h3>\n<strong>The truth: <\/strong>Going for a cloud-based business solution is much quicker and easier than other traditional solutions.\n\nNo local IT involvement is needed, and no equipment needs to be installed.\n\nImplementation usually takes a couple of days, and then your HR solution can be accessed by any authorised employee with an internet connection.\n\nThere&#8217;s no maintenance to worry about in the future, either.\n<h3>Myth 5: Cloud solutions don&#8217;t integrate with other applications<\/h3>\n<strong>The truth: <\/strong>You&#8217;ll usually hear this myth from inexperienced IT and HR departments.\n\nThey haven&#8217;t carried out integration before, so they&#8217;re not keen on it.\n\nA good cloud-based HR solution will be able to sync with your existing HR and payroll software.\n\nThis is usually done so seamlessly that data doesn&#8217;t even have to be manually re-keyed between applications.\n<h3>Myth 6: You&#8217;ll lose control of your HR data if you move to the cloud<\/h3>\n<strong>The truth: <\/strong>This is the easiest of all to debunk. It&#8217;s a misconception that some on-premise software vendors and traditional HR providers are happy to go along with it, but it&#8217;s simply not true.\n\nYou own your data, you control it, and it will always be available to you.\n\nCloud-based HR systems are rapidly replacing traditional HR processes. For more insights, see our <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/resources\/streamline-hr-processes\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">guide on streamlining HR processes<\/a>.\n\nLearn why you should switch to a cloud-based HR solution by downloading our factsheet today.\n<h2>Do you need a new HR system?<\/h2>\nThese days, <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/resources\/choosing-the-right-hr-software\/\">managing HR in a growing business<\/a> is a constant task. As an <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/blog\/how-can-hr-help-managers-succeed\/\">HR manager<\/a>, you&#8217;re probably overloaded with work and you never seem to get to the bottom of it all.\n\nIt&#8217;s not unusual to rush from meeting to meeting, extinguishing fire after fire. You&#8217;re always checking your e-mail and making countless phone calls.\n\nBut there&#8217;s a big difference between being productive and just being busy. And if you&#8217;re always busy being busy on admin-based HR tasks with no time for <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/blog\/hr-strategy-plan\/\">strategic HR thinking<\/a>, it&#8217;s probably high time you made a change.\n\nHere are four telltale signs that you need a new HR system. To help you evaluate your needs, our <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/resources\/intro-to-hr-management\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">introduction to managing human resources<\/a> can be a valuable resource.\n<h3>Sign 1. Onboarding is all paperwork<\/h3>\nThe onboarding of new employees is a crucial time to time to give your new hires a thorough understanding of your company&#8217;s history, culture, and mission, and how they fit into the bigger picture and can contribute to the greater success of the company.\n\nBut, in too many workplaces, onboarding is all about paperwork. And much of a new employee&#8217;s first day is all about completing one document after another. This includes:\n<ul>\n \t<li>Signing a letter of engagement;<\/li>\n \t<li>Acknowledging your code of conduct;<\/li>\n \t<li>Filling out the tax declaration form;<\/li>\n \t<li>Completing their superannuation choice form; and,<\/li>\n \t<li>Giving us their bank account details.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nFor new starters, it&#8217;s dull, and it&#8217;s tedious, and for some, it&#8217;s a real letdown. But it doesn&#8217;t have to be this way when you enable new hires to complete onboarding essentials online, allowing them to fill out and sign all of their onboarding paperwork well in advance of their start date.\n\nIt&#8217;s important to make an employee&#8217;s first days, weeks and months memorable for all the right reasons.\n\nBy streamlining your onboarding process with an <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/products\/hr-software\/\">HR system<\/a>, you can save yourself so much time, free yourself up from tedious paperwork, and make your new starter&#8217;s time with you more productive and enjoyable from day one.\n<h3>Sign 2. The data you need is always hard to find<\/h3>\nIf you&#8217;re still filing everything away in paper files in a bank of filing cabinets, it&#8217;s not only inefficient, but you&#8217;re probably putting the business at risk.\n\nPaper-based filing systems are only as secure as the people who have access to the office where they are located.\n\nEven if you&#8217;re the holder of the key, when bulky filing cabinets start to fill up with overflowing manila folders, it becomes difficult to keep the information organised.\n\nIf you face an underpayment claim or are undergoing an audit by a Fair Work inspector, think of the time it takes to hunt down those important documents. It can be seriously stressful and seriously time-consuming.\n\nAnd with no <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/resources\/hr-audit-checklist\/\">audit trail<\/a>, who can say that it hasn&#8217;t been altered? By having <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/resources\/choosing-the-right-hr-software\/\">HR software fit for your business<\/a>, you can free up your day and have meticulous files at your fingertips whenever you need them. Consider building the business case for new HR software with our <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/resources\/business-case-for-hr-software\/\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">helpful guide<\/a>.\n\nIn fact, online HR software like <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/\">91±¬ΑΟ<\/a> can save you an enormous amount of time across a range of HR tasks. As all your<a href=\"https:\/\/security.employmenthero.com\/\"> HR data is encrypted<\/a> in the cloud, you&#8217;ll also have peace of mind that everything&#8217;s secure from login to logout.\n<h3>Sign 3. Human errors keep tripping you up<\/h3>\nSometimes, the sheer volume of paperwork and duplication from manual processes can be simply overwhelming and keep you away from doing more strategic work.\n\nSpreadsheets are probably a large part of why you&#8217;re always busy doing busy things. They are also notoriously prone to human error.\n\nWith manual data entry, any kind of formula mistakes can seriously mess with everything from managing holiday allowances to your payroll calculations. And it can take ages to unravel it all when something goes awry.\n\nIf you&#8217;re still doing payroll manually or <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/blog\/common-hr-mistakes-to-avoid\/\">keeping data in spreadsheets<\/a>, it&#8217;s high time for an upgrade. For many businesses, the answer lies in having a single platform with integrated HR, rostering and payroll, which eliminates the need for data double-handling.\n<h3>Sign 4. You&#8217;re busy &#8220;being busy&#8221;, updating HR files<\/h3>\nEmployee self-service is all about helping employees and managers build a more self-sufficient work environment.\n\nHaving <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/blog\/employee-self-service\/\">HR self-service<\/a> functionality is a must as it allows your colleagues to perform routine HR tasks themselves, rather than relying on you to do it for them.\n\nThis includes updating their personal details, as well as acting as viewing and acknowledging workplace policies and other HR documents.\n\nBy reducing your employees&#8217; reliance on you to perform day-to-day support tasks, you cut costs and response times while improving efficiency, productivity and compliance.\n\nWith a cloud-based employee self-service system, your employees can access the system from home. They can view work schedules to see when they&#8217;re rostered on, view payroll information, and request annual leave, all without calling on you.\n\n&nbsp;\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div
