This category is for that type of software which is neither industry nor process specific, but simply used to perform common tasks in any organization that has employees. This general category is for integrated HR (ususally database) systems with varying degrees of front-end functionality and integration with other systems (including those systems found in the subcategories of this one).

This category offers human resources related software tools with are used to evaluate prospective and current employees for job match, skills, attitudes, behaviors, motivational keys, job knowledge and performance.

Time Keeping Systems

Time keeping systems are time management tools for tracking time, primarily for payroll purposes. Time keeping solutions run the gamut from old-fashioned punch (timesheet) clocks dating back 50 years to the latest in biometrics (fingerprint & retinal scan technology) and, growing most rapidly in popularity, web based time tracking software. The new, web-based systems allow you to use ONE system to track time not only for payroll purposes, but also for billing and for project / performance management.

Multiple market trends such as 1) outsourcing, 2) telecommuting, 3) a shift toward a "knowledge-worker" organization and 4) SEC & IRS regulations (tech professionals only) are combining to drive rapid growth in this space.
