Product Overview

ClayHR (formerly BizMerlinHR) is an online human capital management software that offers users complete employee records, onboarding tools, e-signature, leave tracking, performance management, feedback, ATS and reporting. It saves HR practitioners, managers and employees time to focus on more strategic tasks. ClayHR is deployed in the cloud and available via native iOS and Android mobile apps.

There are several benefits of ClayHR, such as:

  • Centralized database for employees’ information and documents
  • More efficient, paperless onboarding process

ClayHR integrates with various payroll solutions, such as ADP, Paychex and Intuit Quickbooks. It also integrates with many other applications, including Facebook, LinkedIn, DocuSign and Dropbox.

The Employee Records module allows HR to save all employee information in one place. Employees can keep track of their leave balance and request time off, and administrators can decide which features employees can access based on roles or other settings.

The Recruitment/ATS module allows recruiters and hiring managers to track both internal and external candidates. Job positions can be posted on the company website, social media sites and job boards. An “Apply Now” button can also be set up to receive resumes and applications.

In the Onboarding module, HR can create custom workflows for onboarding tasks to be completed either prior to or during the new hire’s first weeks on the job. Required documentation is stored within the solution for new hires to sign electronically.

The Performance Management module can be customized to fit an organization’s review processes. Managers and employees can add and track new goals, and managers can also provide instant feedback. Some of the module’s other features include multi-rater feedback, built-in and customizable review templates, and the ability to create and manage performance reviews in batches.

Project managers can use the Smart Goals module to track project milestones, determine the best team members for specific projects/tasks, keep an eye on project changes, and promote collaboration among employees.

Talent Management features include Skill Management, Retention Management and Asset Management. Skill Management allows managers to rate employees’ skills in various areas to determine if improvement or training is needed. Companies can use data from the Retention Management module to reduce turnover and retain top talent. The Asset Management module helps companies keep track of their information technology and other assets.

Additional modules include Training and Development, Career Planning, Workforce Planning, and Objectives & Key Results.
