Breaking Through Growth Barriers

Saarni HRX

Comprehensive HR management platform offering personnel administration, recruitment, performance management, and employee satisfaction measurement tools

HR Technology
Ongoing (3+ months)

From multiple HR tools to Unified HCM Suite

Saarni Cloud had successfully built individual HR tools (Priima, Nepton, HRX, Saarni EXP) but faced the challenge of creating a unified user experience across their growing product portfolio. As the company expanded through acquisitions and organic growth, they needed to transform their separate applications into a cohesive HCM suite that could compete with established players like SAP SuccessFactors and Workday.

Key Challenges

  • Multiple separate HR applications with inconsistent user interfaces
  • Growing product portfolio requiring unified design system
  • Need to compete with established HCM suite providers

Platform Evolution

Our platform offered a wide range of features, but each tool had its own interface and navigation, which made the overall experience less seamless than we wanted. Unifying these into a single, consistent UI framework at the corporate level is a major step forward for both our users and our business.
