Solves the integrations problem
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We used Merge to fetch user attributes from customers' HRIS systems. This is an essential part of doing Identity and Access Management (IAM) at scale. Access is often given based on these attributes. Without Merge, we would need to build integrations with many different HRIS providers and therefore was essential for us.
Pros
- Customer support
- Uptime and reliability
- Ease of integration
Cons
- Expand breadth of coverage of API integrationsl
Return on Investment
- Very strong positive impact. We were able to avoid building many integrations to support different HRIS systems
