How to Measure and Maximize The ROI of HR Software | HR Cloud

Written by HR Cloud | May 11, 2021 6:06:29 PM

When making an investment in HR software, including Applicant Tracking Systems
(ATS),Employee Communications and Engagement platforms(ECE),Onboarding Tool (ON),
and Human Resources Management Systems (HRMS), return on investment (ROI) can be difficult to measure.


Why is this? In HR, unlike other parts of the organization, employees are the assets
we’re attempting to measure. Yet even top performers are hard to quantify in terms
of their contribution to the organization’s bottom line.


If you’re looking to gain a fast—and significant—ROI with Onboarding and HRMS
software, there are three important factors to consider.

What is your total cost of ownership (TCO)?

When thinking about cost, make sure you calculate your true TCO, which is usually much more than the cost of the software. TCO gives you a more complete view of your investment by factoring in additional costs related to installation, configuration, training, support, professional services, and more.

Will my employees adopt this technology? If so, how quickly?

The most effective HR software solutions are designed to be as intuitive and easy to use as possible. This minimizes the need for training and accelerates employee adoption for the fastest time to value.

What value will you gain?

Ideally, Onboard software and HRMS solutions will provide many different benefits for employees, hiring managers/business unit managers, and HR teams. In doing so, a new HR solution should provide measurable gains in four key areas:


Streamline hiring and onboarding processes:

Automate and streamline recruiting processes to help hiring managers improve the way they attract and hire employees. This should help improve key metrics such as average time to hire, cost per hire, and more.

Improve regulatory compliance and reduce risk:

Auto filing federal and state employment forms eliminate errors and eVerify processes flag out-of-compliance employees which can generate costly regulatory fines. Ensuring proper employment records are maintained can prevent costly employee litigation and reduce errors and omissions (E&O) insurance premiums.

Reduce recruiting costs:

An effective applicant tracking system (ATS) will significantly reinforce the company brand image and improve traditional hiring processes that included too much manual work and overhead. All of this helps eliminate these costs entirely.

Improve the employee experience as well as top and bottom lines:

The best HR solutions will give employees a seamless onboarding experience as well as a long-term foundation to focus on performance and satisfaction. In turn, this will help increase engagement, productivity, and even long-term retention.

Eliminate HR’s administrative burden:

HR technology will also empower HR teams with tools to increase personal productivity, reduce per-transaction metrics, and spend more time on higher-value work.
