Linux HR Management Systems?

Posted by Zonk on from the social-penguins dept.

dgcrawford writes "A growing, 100-person company I work for is looking to integrate a Human Resources Management System into their Linux computer base. Does anyone have experience with any products that fit this need? Does it interface well with payroll, applicant tracking, maybe even finance and stock or other non-monetary compensation? I realize most of you would look at this from an IT point of view, but how did the system work across fields? And how important/useful did you find this interoperability?"

    Hi,

    ]project-open[ is a project management system with several HR components. Links: http://www.project-open.com/ and http://www.project-open.org/

    There is:
    - An integrated employee file with all available information
    - Basic employee information and hiring workflow
    - Portrait component & "Employee of the day" option
    - (Very) basic payroll information, specially protected.
    - A skill database (non-FOSS extension module)
    - A forum associated with each employee for comments etc.
    - A file storage associated with each user to store CV etc.

    No idea if that suits your needs, but it might be a good starting point for further development. The only inconvenience: The system is written in TCL and based on PostgreSQL, which might require a few hours of training for PHP developers...

    Cheers,
    Frank

    We've looked at OrangeHRM and may start a pilot in house shortly (approx 250 employees). It has promise but it's not there yet - good basic functionality, a slightly quirky interface but not a lot of internationalistion yet.

    Sure worth a peek and keeping an eye on.
