Still up for June and July!

In early June we posted about our 100% uptime for May 2024 and since then we have maintained a 100% uptime. We are still immensely proud about the fact that we can provide a free payroll and HRMS system that is there for you. Always. You can do your employee payslips, loans, leave, employee warnings, permits, reviews, training, and surveys when it suits you. For free. Dit kos jou mos niks om nice te wees nie.
 
We also constantly monitor our system for any errors which users may receive either in the front end or in the back end.
 
Along with high availability of your best free payroll and HR system, you also have all day error detection by an actual human. We also have multiple support channels with our easiest being WhatsApp. We even assist at night and on weekends. Again, by an actual human with the skills to do so.
