If handling HR & Payroll for your business is becoming too much of a hassle, behold, here’s a one-stop solution to all the HR problems. Cloud-based SaaS model sumHR aims to be the go-to platform for minor to major HR issues. sumHR has recently revamped its appearance entirely. The teal green signifies the fresh approach to HR and the bluish grey symbolizes the power of HR.

Jay Thaker and Waqar Azmi founded the startup in 2013. And, it has a strong client base pan-India and abroad, as claimed by the startup. Based out of Mumbai, sumHR has managed to reach out to the remotest areas and international clients within a span of 4 years. Presently, they have over 500 clients using sumHR for managing HR operations for over 25000 employees.

The software offers simple and logical solutions to attendance management, leave tracking, reimbursement management, among other things. The team at sumHR takes great pride in offering one-click payroll processing. This feature handles the minutest details of payroll. Along with basic deductions, the software also takes care of state-wise deductions. IT, PF, PT, LWF, ESIC, etc. are just a few among the many services offered. sumHR is easily accessible anytime and anywhere. A decent internet connection is all what you need to avail these services.

“We’ve interacted with a lot of HR professionals at SutraHR. We have received frequent requests to handle their end-to-end HR processes besides recruitment. That made us realize that streamlining the HR process is a massive problem faced by many HR folks. So, this set the stage for us to launch a product which would automate the entire HR process”, says Waqar Azmi.

Adding to this, says Jay, “When we started work on the product a few years ago, we underestimated and overestimated a variety of things. But realization dawned quickly and we’ve understood 2-3 critical things about the HR domain: One, it’s very vast and complex. Two, HR professionals aren’t very tech savvy. Three, HR as a department is often underrated and undervalued. Our mission is to build an HR product that streamlines the entire employee-lifecycle in an organization without compromising on simplicity or ease-of-use, and empowers HR dept. with insightful data and decision information.”

Additionally, it also solves the humongous task of performance appraisals with a dedicated feature. Automated timely reminders, graphical analysis, customizable review forms are just a few of the highlights of this feature. sumHR has recently introduced two new features – shift planner and HR drive. Using the shift planner feature, admins can assign shifts to employees for special projects on a weekly basis. HR drive lets the users upload important documents in varied formats – pdf, docx, jpeg, etc. Basically, sumHR is a full-suite HR product that essentially covers up the entire end-to-end employee lifecycle management.

sumHR has flexible pricing plans based on the package you choose. Starting at just Rs. 49 per employee/month, it’s one of India’s most affordable HR & Payroll software, like claimed. Offering ready-made HR letters and templates, this product can tackle even the basic letter generating needs of HR.

“I signed up for sumHR because of its user-friendly interface and customizable features. We’re very pleased with the way their team carefully hears our feedback and quickly launches new features as per our requirements, which is a giant leap ahead of the other HR software companies in the market. It’s a pleasure working with sumHR, it’s a highly recommended product!”, says Rahul Bhardwaj, COO of Junglee Games.

sumHR is currently looking to raise funds to radically improve its product with innovative ideas. Something that the entire HR World hasn’t seen before. The team is planning to launch a mobile app on multiple platforms and expand to overseas markets in South-East Asia & Middle East.In fact, they’re already working on the ‘next big thing’ in HR, and within their team this project is ‘secretly’ called sumHR 3.0!
