What it is
Sage HR is a cloud-based human resources tool for managing and supporting employees. Its modules include Core HR, Leave Management, Timesheets, Shift Scheduling, Expenses, Performance and Recruitment. Core HR covers employee profiles, onboarding and offboarding tasks, workflows, documents, reports, announcements, compensation, training and asset tracking. Leave Management handles policies, online requests and approvals, shared calendars and reports. Sage HR offers iOS and Android apps for time off, timesheets, expenses, documents and goals; trackable documents can be viewed there but uploaded only through the web portal. Integrations include Google or Outlook calendars and Slack, with more connections through a public REST API.
