RedCarpet has been utilized by several organizations, including Polk State, VendorPass, LPR, and American Dental Partners, to streamline their employee onboarding processes and enhance efficiency while ensuring consistency. SilkRoad Onboarding, also known as RedCarpet, simplifies the onboarding experience for new hires by eliminating the need for paper forms and enabling the tracking and reviewing of completed forms. This not only saves time but also allows for a more organized and seamless onboarding process.

Moreover, RedCarpet serves as a helpful reminder system for new employees, assisting them in preparing for their first day by completing necessary paperwork in advance. By automating pre-boarding and onboarding procedures and eliminating the reliance on manual paper-based forms, RedCarpet empowers organizations to effectively manage their payroll processing ahead of time.

In addition to its benefits for new employees, RedCarpet plays a vital role in supporting managers and HR teams. By automating tasks, it enhances their efficiency and ensures compliance with established procedures. Its versatility is evident as it is used across various organizational settings such as stores, home offices, and distribution centers in Canada.

Overall, RedCarpet streamlines processes, reduces manual workloads, promotes compliance, and ultimately contributes to a positive onboarding experience for both employees and employers alike.

Customized welcome portal and task management system: Some users have praised Red Carpet for providing a customized welcome portal and task management system. This feature allows for a personalized experience for each employee based on their location, role, and department.

Improved onboarding process: According to reviewers, the development process of Red Carpet has led to a reevaluation of their organization's onboarding process. This has resulted in the creation of electronic forms and an overall improved onboarding experience.

Efficient workflow monitoring: Many users have found value in Red Carpet's ability to effectively monitor the workflow. The visible tasks and colors on the back end allow HR administrators and managers to easily track the progress of each employee's new hire process, as well as identify any delays caused by individuals or teams.

Cumbersome eForm Creation Process: Several users have reported that the process of creating and making changes to eForms is complicated and time-consuming. They mentioned that it requires completion of a detailed spreadsheet, which they find cumbersome. Some users suggested that an ideal solution would be to create the form in Word and forward it to the team for creation or change.

Confusing Task Workflow and Hierarchy Tree: Many users found the task workflow and dependency/hierarchy tree in RedCarpet confusing and visually unappealing. This caused them to spend more time during the development phase trying to understand and navigate through these features.

Unfriendly Notifications and Features: Users expressed dissatisfaction with the user-friendliness of notifications, document library, and other features in RedCarpet. They mentioned that it was hard to remember how to access the correct notification or form/document and then edit or create it. Additionally, some users found adding a task tricky as it was difficult to locate the proper task in the list, suggesting that it needs improvement in terms of user-friendliness.

RedCarpet is being used by VendorPass to onboard consultants for several accounts that we have. We use it for employment tracking and process E-verify through the system once the consultant is ready to start their assignment for the client. We enjoy using the system since it is user friendly and doesn't require the system to be compatible with any operating systems.
  • It tracks the progress of the consultant's online paperwork on your dashboard. You will be able to see what tasks have been completed.
  • Its very computer friendly. Never heard a complaint about not being able to access the site.
  • Maybe in the state tax forms when working and living in a different state, some auto populate fields when onboarding New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.
  • Adding a task can be tricky as well. It is hard to locate the proper task you are looking for in the list. The list needs to be more user friendly.
One of the questions we asked was if it was user friendly or if it was compatible to certain browsers and operating systems.
  • We are able to track the employee's progress with the new hire paperwork better.
  • We are able to onboard the employee faster and effectively.
RedCarpet is totally a better system to use then some of the other applicant tracking system that we currently use. It is more user friendly. The other system requires for the applicant to have certain browsers and operating systems to be able to begin their new hire paperwork. With RedCarpet there is no restrictions on the browsers or the operating system. Also it is easier to track the progress being made throughout the onboarding process, the progress is reported on the recruiting coordinators dashboard. This is an awesome system to use for applicant tracking.
