Previously, we had to run all students' records via our AD (Active Directory) and manually take out information from one system, create accounts and integrate with Google. Now, Frends does all of that for us. We have been able to maintain the up-to-date accuracy of data proactively. We deleted 5000-6000 accounts and saved a lot of money and resources on account management for the school.

A quick guide to HR system integration - From traditional methods to iPaaS

Managing HR processes can quickly become complex when you’re working with multiple systems for recruitment, payroll, performance tracking, and more. Traditionally, these systems are connected with messy, point-to-point integrations that are hard to manage and scale.

That’s where Frends iPaaS steps in. It’s a simple way to connect all your HR tools, automate repetitive tasks, and make sure everything—from hiring to offboarding—runs smoothly.

In the following sections, we’ll look at the key benefits of using an iPaaS to simplify and improve your HR processes.

The Challenge with Disconnected HR Systems

Traditionally, HR teams rely on various standalone systems to manage different aspects of the employee lifecycle, such as recruitment, payroll, and performance management. These siloed systems often don’t communicate well, leading to fragmented data and time-consuming manual tasks. For example, updating employee details in the payroll system after a new hire is onboarded may require manual input, increasing the risk of errors and delays. Plus, accessing real-time workforce data can be challenging when information is scattered across multiple platforms.

How Frends iPaaS Transforms HR Processes

With Frends iPaaS, you can integrate all your HR systems into a single platform, making your processes far more efficient. Frends automates data flow between your tools — whether it’s Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, ServiceNow, or others — ensuring that your employee data, payroll, performance metrics, and benefits information are always up-to-date. This automation streamlines everything from preboarding to offboarding, letting your HR team focus on people, not processes.

For example, Frends can automate tasks like transferring employee information from the recruitment system to payroll and IT systems, activating necessary accounts, and ensuring compliance with legal requirements. You can also sync performance management tools with payroll and workforce planning systems, giving managers real-time access to updated employee metrics and feedback.
