Sage HR

What is Sage HR?

Sage HR is cloud HR software for small and mid-sized businesses, sold as a core employee-management product with optional modules. It is part of the Sage group and covers employee data, leave tracking, mobile access and add-on tools for recruitment, performance, time and attendance, and payroll.

Key features of Sage HR

• Employee records: a central employee database with documents and profile data.
• Leave management: request, approve and track time off with a team calendar.
• Time and attendance: timesheets and attendance tracking as an add-on module.
• Performance management: goals and review cycles as an add-on module.
• Recruitment: applicant tracking as an add-on module.
• Payroll: an integrated payroll module in supported markets.
• Mobile access: apps for employees and managers.

How Sage HR works

Companies start with the core HR product and switch on modules as needs grow. Employees request leave and update their details through self-service, and managers approve requests and review team data. Optional modules for payroll, recruitment, performance and attendance share the same employee records, so data does not have to be re-entered.

Who uses Sage HR?

Sage HR is aimed at small and mid-sized organizations that want a modular HR system with room to add features later. HR managers, office managers and founders use it to run leave, records and review cycles without a large HR team.

Sage HR pricing

Sage HR is priced by modules and headcount, and prices vary by region and currency. Check the vendor's regional pricing page for current figures. The vendor offers a free trial, and trial and plan details differ by country.

Sage HR integrations

Sage HR offers API access for custom connections. Third-party directories list calendar and Google Workspace connections, and the vendor's regional pages list the connectors available in your market.
