What is the key challenge that you faced before using a HR software and how has Payboy helped to address this challenge?

Charles (Managing Director of CAP Advisory Group): Before our team started using Payboy, everything was on Excel. Payroll was quite a painful job for my finance department to handle and one of the critical issues that we faced was the verification of information. It therefore made a lot of sense for us to find a HR software that can help streamline the payroll management process in terms of verifying documents, and even approving claims and leaves.

Thanks to Payboy, it is now a lot easier to collect information because the documents to support the claims and leaves applications can be uploaded onto the app by the client’s employees themselves. And when we review the documents, we can just click a button and the documents will pop up for easy reference.

What are the features of Payboy that stand out to you?

Charles: I think one of the great things about Payboy is its user-friendly interface. Not only can we decentralise many functions, for example, claims and leaves management, onto the employees’ app, but we can also focus more on HR policies and devote more time to evaluating the team’s performance. Appraisal is a two-way process, so thanks to Payboy’s performance appraisal module, which supports 360-degree feedback, I also get to hear feedback from our team on my performance as a manager. These feedbacks are very important for us to continue growing as an organisation. 

What are the top 3 reasons that you’d recommend Payboy to your clients?

Charles: As part of our services, one of the things that we do for our clients is shop for good software solutions that can both cut their costs on certain functions and also meet their requirements. Payboy is definitely one of the softwares that we have recommended to many of our clients because of its simple interface, user friendliness, and employee decentralisation.
