Transforming HR as a core business function with jacando HR, Time, CRM and X

In today's era of digital transformation, many new-age technology solutions provide a swift and better way to search for desirable candidates. Gone are the days when recruiting personnel and talent management used to be a time taking procedure. Now within a few minutes, companies can shortlist several candidates that fit in their criteria.

One company which transforms HR as a core business function into a digital future is jacando AG. Founded by Dennis Teichmann, jacando AG is a Swiss cloud software provider and offers HR products and Time-efficient HR solutions in the areas of recruiting, personnel and talent management, time recording and internal communication, which can be managed at the click of a mouse.

jacando CRM was newly developed for the administration and coordination of the customer base and the mapping of its own customer relationship processes.

The fourth world is jacando X, jacando's platform for data import and exports.

The company offers its customers a standardized solution for simple exports and automated interfaces with many widely-known providers. This enables its customers to work on a single platform and to handle the entire business process more efficiently than ever before. The core innovation is that the HR processes are very simple and that jacando fits seamlessly like a jigsaw puzzle into the rest of the applications of customer uses.

jacando's cloud (plug and play) approach gives non-IT-affine users easy access to modern HR systems. Many companies don't want to buy expensive software that has to be installed in a complicated way. With jacando, the system is immediately there, it works via Plug & Play, and the customer can start directly via browser.

Dennis believes in "jacando at a glance: Less effort, more convenience, and transparency." This allows customers to work more and less in terms of content and administration and focus on really important things. It also ensures greater transparency.

The innovation ramps up with limited headcount and cost, maintenance of staff without a big HR function. Exactly as jacando helps other companies with its tools.

Besides, thanks to the software, Dennis was able to quickly recruit and build a high-quality team within a short time while keeping fluctuation low. He believes the transformation of processes takes time, system-wise and process-wise.

Further talking about the challenges faced in the journey of innovation, Dennis threw light on four major hurdles he had to cross to succeed. Firstly, process changes are always difficult. Convincing all employees of innovation can be tough, which in turn leads to problems during implementation. This subsequently leads to the second challenge – to be able to profit fully from the software, one must use all the possibilities of the system. Thirdly, employees who do not work on end devices, i.e. in the office, find it difficult to do so. jacando solves this with mobile applications and responsive content. The final challenge includes obsolescence of other systems.

According to Dennis, jacando's most important partner is Stifterhelfen, currently, where it donates its software to non-profit organizations. This partnership gives the company a wide reach.

Additionally, the voices of its satisfied customers are very valuable for jacando as a PR tool.

Through jacando X, the company also connects with other innovative software for unique customer experience, so the cooperation with these partners is very important for the company (as Bexio for Accounting, JIRA for Techs and Slack for Communication).
