Imagine a Human Resource Management Software Utopia

Imagine a world where employees can get all their human resources questions answered with just a click of a mouse, and employee relations and case management records are available 24 hours a day.  And imagine a world where HR conversations with those employees are electronically stored in a database repository allowing for easy access to reporting, trends, and analysis. That’s Dovetail’s Human Resource Case Management Software solution.

The Dovetail Case Management Solution for HR

Dovetail Human Resource Case Management Software is a web-based employee support software for employees and employers.   Dovetail has been providing customer support software for 16 years. Two years ago they launched their HRMS system product per the request of a client who needed the ability to track and report on employee interactions with HR.  Dovetail’s client list includes Best Buy, GE, Macy’s and others. So it should come as no surprise that Dovetail has a reputation as a leader in support and service software.

HR Deserves A Day Off: HR Documentation Storage Solution

While on maternity leave in my corporate HR Director role, it was not uncommon for me to receive phone calls or emails from my HR colleagues and peers who had questions concerning past employee conversations, HR documentation, and requests.  The problem with this is that I was on maternity leave and on taking unpaid time off.  Receiving compensation for this work time is fine but complicates matters including my short-term disability.  Work related questions from colleagues like these happen often because there is no repository to record and store these past employee conversations.  Dovetail’s system solves this problem as HR professionals can create documented cases, store notes and conversations that are searchable and viewable by other HR team members in the database (shown in picture below).  This makes the transition for HR team members easier to navigate conversations with their employee population if there is turnover within the HR organization, a restructure, or team members like me on maternity leave.

Benefits and Features of the Dovetail HR Management Software Solution

Employees can email their questions directly using a group email inbox.  Cases and numbers inside the database are automatically created allowing for a specific HR team member or members on call to respond or assign to others.  Don’t worry, employees aren’t always required to communicate with HR only via email.  The software allows any HR team member to create a case and report conversations whether electronically, in person, or by phone.

What I like most about the email inbox feature is that responses can be customized alerting the employee to their case number, when an HR representative will contact them and most importantly the system can provide them a list of suggested articles and resources stored within the system to help answer the employee’s question.  Often times, employees are in need of very specific information like information on the company’s employee bereavement policy.  The system recognizes certain keywords and can provide the employee via email a list of recommended articles, forms, and resources based on the keywords contained within their message.

A Configurable Solid Software Solution for HR

The Dovetail Software employee relations case management system is completely configurable and human resources teams can use it as little or as much as they want.  This software can work either directly inside or outside of the company intranet or portal.  Dovetail can use your already robust intranet and document storage system to source for policies, procedures, and resources to help employees as well as HR teams do a better job at engaging their employee and managers.

Dovetail Case Management Solutions Final Review

For Human Resource professionals the Dovetail System is a blessing Easy to use and highly configurable, it’s also powerful. No doubt it’s a timesaver, and for many organizations it will be well worth the cost of implementation.

HRMS Options From Dovetail

Dovetail Software’s system offers a variety of pricing as well as configuration options.  Dovetail Support Suite for HR is offered via subscription (also known as hosted or SaaS)  and is also based on the size or the organization as well as the human resources department.  You can connect with @dovetail on Twitter or by visiting their website at www.dovetailsoftware.com.

    amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost.
    ..HaHa!) Fantastic job. I really loved what you had to say,
    and more than that, how you presented it.
    Too cool!
