What is HR software?

HR software is a human resources solution that combines several systems and processes into an all-in-one HR platform. Designed to help small and large businesses manage their employees and data.

You may have heard it called an HR system, an HRIS system, or HR management software. Some people even get techy and call it a Human Resources Information System (HRIS) or Human Capital Management (HCM) software.

At BrightHR, we keep it simple. Our cloud-based HR software lets you manage employee data, absence, staff vacations, shifts and schedules, expenses, and training—all in one secure and user-friendly online HR platform.
