Product Overview

Cornerstone OnDemand is an integrated cloud-based talent management solution. Its solutions is available to companies of all industries and sizes and can work with the company’s existing systems (i.e. ERPs, financial systems, and payroll platforms). Cornerstone OnDemand focuses on recruiting, onboarding, performance management, learning management, compensation, and succession management.

Cornerstone OnDemand is also available in Growth Edition for companies with less than 400 employees. The Growth Edition is dedicated to providing recruiting, performance management, and learning functionalities.

Features

Cornerstone OnDemand focuses primarily on the talent management arena, from recruiting to onboarding, to career development to performance measurements. We want to discuss briefly on the social collaboration features as it is an important concept in HR.

The Cornerstone Connect functionality allows employees to collaborate with their managers and each other. Similar to LinkedIn, employees can set up their own profile and request connections with others. Employees can also set up their own tasks or the tasks of their team and share that with others, who then can comment on those tasks.
