About ELMO Software

ELMO Software is a cloud-based solution that helps thousands of organisations across Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom to effectively manage their people, process and pay.

ELMO offers a comprehensive suite of cloud HR & payroll software solutions that can be configured to whatever your organisation requires, and are available within a single dashboard and single user interface. We help organisations automate and streamline operations across the following areas: HR Core, Payroll, Recruitment, Onboarding, Performance Management and Learning Management. ELMO is also ISO 27001:2013 certified, meaning that information security is prioritised at all levels of the business and is a core ongoing and evolving aspect of our operations and services.

With a mission to create best-in-class technology accessible to all workplaces, ELMO is constantly evolving. Our innovative solutions are at the forefront of a disruptive technology industry, driven by the transition of organisations towards online systems which automate processes and aggregate information in new and intelligent ways.

ELMO’s software applications are multi-tenant, multi-user, on-demand application providing true SaaS delivery. Our applications require no special hardware, no software maintenance, and no network administration. This removes many of the costs and headaches associated with large-scale software implementations, provides seamless integration with legacy HRIS, and provides the added benefit of rapid, painless upgrades as new features are released.

ELMO’s modular solution approach also enables organisations to begin their talent management journey according to business priorities, comfortable with the knowledge they can seamlessly integrate additional modules as their HR needs mature. Existing ELMO solutions can connect to many popular third-party applications so that you can automate tasks, streamline processes and be more productive.

The implementation was seamless and the staff at ELMO go over and above to ensure you get the most out of the system. We have gained the most benefits out of the Onboarding, Learning & Performance modules.

Some limitations in the rostering software but ELMO are very proactive in continuously developing and improving the software

Reasons for Choosing ELMO Software

ConnX was unable to support our growth as a business. Found the reporting in Sage to be limited and also wanted one fully integrated HR and Payroll system

Pros

Easy for users to use when selecting and completing modules

Cons

Difficult & time consuming to set up
Requires prior knowledge & skills of HTML coding
Build platform confusing
Desktop and Mobile must be built separately - duplication
Mobile has no working flash, plain text only so user experience not engaging
Restrictive on videos, pictures and file attachment size

I have been using Elmo for quite some time and over all it has been an enjoyable experience. Even prior to using it for my job I used it to get some needed courses that started and were needed for my career in Security.

Pros

The software is well set out enabling me to see what courses I am yet to complete and they are easy to use across all hardware platforms (iPhone, computer etc.)

Cons

Occasionally there are issues with using an apple device that requires the course to be done on a computer. This delays what should be a quick and easy course into a long and drawn out one as access to a computer is difficult, where I always have my phone on me.

Response from ELMO Software

Thanks so much for your detailed review of ELMO, Tony! We really appreciate the time you've taken to provide feedback on your experience over the years, and great to see you are still enjoying ELMO's LMS. We've passed on your feedback regarding mobile usage for your training to our Product Development Team. Many thanks, ELMO Team

Reviewed on 29/11/2022

Pros

It is very intuitive and once I had used it for a few months I could troubleshoot most issues staff were having.

Cons

There are a few things it can't do, can't think of them off the top of my head, but I'm sure that is the same with all similar products.

Response from ELMO Software

Thanks so much for the review, Nicole! We hope you continue to enjoy ELMO Software. Best wishes, ELMO Team
