Top 5 tips to consider when moving your HR system to the Cloud

Are you planning to move your HR system to the cloud and transform your business? If your answer is yes, you are not the only one in your endeavour. Statistics for 2023 show that 70% of business organisations either have a digital transformation strategy or are currently working on one.

As you can expect, transformation will not happen overnight – it will require developing a change management plan. So, here are the 5 tips to consider that will help you transform your business and will prepare you for the transition:

1. Evaluate capacity of both: your business and your business partners

Evaluate your technological capacity to ensure an optimal performance of your new HR software system. Also, make sure that the selected cloud provider is flexible enough to cover the size of your business and the specific requirements you might have.

2. Think about technical support needed

When moving your HR system to the cloud, think about the technical support you might need from your provider and whether they would be able to satisfy your demands. Support in terms of handling the implementation process, migrating data, provision of post-implementation/ongoing support etc.

3. Focus on employee experience

Move to an HR system that will give an outstanding experience to your employees – a system that can be personalised to their needs and preferences, a system that is intuitive, fast, easily accessible from every place and device. Most importantly, a system that will allow for automation of the daily HR processes and tasks of your personnel.

4. Prioritise value over features

Better not search for a cloud HR software which has abundance of features. Instead, focus on a software which will fit best to your business, one that will solve your business challenges and meet your HR performance capabilities.

5. Plan data migration

When migrating data to a new system, it is important to have a solid data migration plan, allocate sufficient resources, and have enough time for the changes to take place. It is also advisable to select a business provider that can support you through the journey.
