Human Capital Management - Enterprise

What is Human Capital Management - Enterprise Software?

Human Capital Management (HCM, and often called HRIS or HRMS) software combines a number of systems and processes to ensure the easy management of human resources, business processes and data. HCM software is used to combine a number of necessary HR functions, such as storing employee data, managing payroll, recruitment processes, benefits administration, and more. The systems are often modular, allowing organizations to use some or all of the integrated functionality. An integrated HCM system can help effectively manage employees, provide streamlined access to HR services, support learning and development within the organization, and drive employee engagement.
