It’s important to mention here that HRMS isn’t a product but a solution!
So, just taking the decision to choose an HRMS platform based on features alone isn’t advisable. Also take into account the HRMS provider’s service record. And their readiness and involvement in implementation of the software for your organisation.
Selection of an HRMS is a long term decision. If needed, talk to their customers, too.
