Zoho People

Zoho People is a cloud-based Human Resource Management System (HRMS) designed to centralize and automate personnel data management. The platform provides core HR functions, including Time Tracking, Onboarding, and Employee Scheduling. Zoho People allows administrators to configure Workflows for recurring administrative tasks or delegate them to specific staff members. The system uses Document Templates to minimize manual data entry, while automated field updates assist the HR department in maintaining data integrity. The integrated Scheduler automates the delivery of emails and HR Reports to designated recipients.

HR Management System

Zoho People consolidates employee records into a unified database to facilitate cross-departmental communication. A Self-Service Portal enables staff to record work hours, submit Leave Requests, and provide status updates to team members. The platform includes Performance Management capabilities, allowing for Peer Reviews and the tracking of Personal Objectives. For internal inquiries, Zoho People features a Case Management System where HR managers can track, manage, and resolve employee requests.

The system incorporates Workforce Intelligence and HR Analytics to generate automated reports on organizational health. Zoho People monitors team performance metrics to support data-driven operational decisions. For requirements beyond standard templates, the platform provides a drag-and-drop interface for building Custom Reports. These analytics surface insights into Employee Turnover, Attrition Rates, and organizational growth for use by executive leadership and management teams.

Zoho People operates as a standalone HRMS but offers integration with other products within the Zoho Ecosystem. The vendor offers a free tier with a user limit, while paid subscriptions allow organizations to select specific feature sets. For broader requirements, Zoho People Plus bundles the core system with Expense Management, Talent Acquisition (ATS), Internal Communications, and Password Management software.

Learning Management System

The platform includes a Learning Management System (LMS) that supports multiple training modalities. Zoho People enables HR departments to deploy self-paced Learning Plans and structured training programs. The Course Builder supports the creation of modules containing Interactive Discussions and Timed Assessments.

The E-learning component integrates with Performance Management to correlate training effectiveness with employee progress. The LMS is available as an add-on for Essential HR, Professional, or Premium tiers, and is included at no additional cost in the Enterprise plan, which also supports Blended Learning and Course Management.
