A users review

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

As an employee, I find it a very good 'one-stop-shop' for any employment matters. It helps me keep track of my professional development. I just finished my performance appraisal using the software and I found it very user-friendly. Using the 'leave' functions I found it a bit clunky and not so user-friendly.

Pros

  • Performance appraisal.
  • Keeping track of professional development.
  • Ensuring my personal details are up to date with my workplace.

Cons

  • The leave processes - not intuitive.

Return on Investment

  • It has been helpful

As a new employee, it was so simple and efficient. Easiest onboarding experience of my career.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The onboarding process at EPSA used the ELMO software, which allowed me to upload ALL of my personal details and documentation very easily.

No random paper forms to fill out your bank account details, then one for superannuation/pension details, then another for your Emergency Contact details, etc. None of that typical nonsense.

Everything that my employer could possibly ask from me, was ALL able to be entered/uploaded via the ELMO platform. It was the best onboarding experience I've had in my career.

Pros

  • Accepts bank account details
  • Accepts identification documents
  • Accepts PPE details

Cons

  • The only issue was that if you logged-out/timed-out, the return login page/link that you were sent to, looked exactly the same, however, you couldn't log in to that page with your original credentials. I had to make sure that I manually added "/onboarding" to the link, in order to arrive at the login page that accepted my original credentials. THEN, I could finish off uploading and entering my details.

ELMO Software can help us to keep in touch with the administrative branch of the company. It helps us to comply with legal requisites and share documents such as our daily COVID test that needs to be done and reviewed online. We also use it because sometimes we are working from home and it allows us to be connected.
