Globe Business PayrollCloud empowers bosses and employees

September 10, 2012

 

EMPLOYERS AND EMPLOYEES have a powerful new tool in Globe Business PayrollCloud, a first from Globe. Using the Payroll Cloud, the payroll process and other HR transactions are made simpler, less costly, and more efficient. More importantly, records are entered and updated faster, and are more accurate.

 

"The PayrollCloud system from Globe Business uses advanced Cloud technology to create a payroll system that is simpler and more convenient for employers and employees.

 

"But it does more than just basic payroll. The Globe Business PayrollCloud system integrates payroll records with other information—including timekeeping, leaves and absences, expenses and many others.

 

"The system makes sure that HR transactions are processed quickly and accurately—in a way that is transparent, simple and convenient," said Boboy Romero, Head of Globe Business.

 

He said that the payroll process and other HR transactions can be a complicated and costly process for any company, big or small. There's no avoiding the effort and the expense because such processes are required by the government from all businesses and necessary for business survival.

 

"Between a small and a large company," he said, "the larger company would have more money to invest in quality, costly infrastructure to make payroll and other transactions more convenient and with minimal system errors. Using Cloud technology however, SMEs can benefit from the same quality infrastructure at a cost that they can afford."

 

Using the Cloud

 

Romero compared the use of Cloud technology to the way electricity is consumed in households and offices.

 

"Electricity consumers don't need to buy their own hydro-electric power plant just so they could generate their own electricity. They don't need to invest in electrical towers, cables, and transformers. All of that capital expenditure has been shouldered by the electricity provider.

 

"What electricity consumers do pay for is the electricity that they actually use. No more and no less. Cloud technology works in a similar way. In the case of the Globe Business PayrollCloud, it's Globe who invests in the advanced computer hardware, software and network technology.

 

"Globe Business PayrollCloud subscribers, on the other hand, only pay for their use of the Globe Business Cloud infrastructure in their payroll system and other HR processes," Romero explained.

 

The Globe Business PayrollCloud, he added, benefits SMEs the most because it allows them to use high-tech hardware and software without making a huge investment.

 

The new Globe Business PayrollCloud system benefits SMEs in following ways:

 

Lower cost

 

Globe Business PayrollCloud monthly subscription, which includes 2 Mbps DSL, can be as low as P3, 400. System upgrades are installed for free.

 

Globe Business PayrollCloud also frees the employer from additional cost of investing in hardware (computer servers, etc.). Not having to pay for computer hardware has two additional advantages.

 

First, there's no more need to spend on buying a cooling system for the hardware and second, there's no monthly cost for the power consumption of both the computer hardware and the cooling system.

 

The employer is also spared from additional monetary and time costs entailed by personnel training, since Globe Business PayrollCloud system is so easy to learn. The subscription comes with an easy-to-understand tutorial, quick start guide and a user manual.

 

Globe Business PayrollCloud comes with Company Wizard that gives Globe Business PayrollCloud users easy-to-follow instructions on how to set up company information, HR and payroll policy data in the system.

 

Another software that comes with the system is Payroll Run Wizard, which teaches users how to set-up and use Globe Business PayrollCloud's hassle-free and quick payroll processing system—in just 8 easy steps.

 

Scalability

 

Globe Business PayrollCloud is scalable to fit the requirements of any company, from SMEs to large corporations. It is already compliant with Philippine regulations. It can be modified to accommodate the special needs of a particular business.

 

This scalability also helps bring down cost: the features of Globe Business PayrollCloud may be scaled up or scaled down, and the subscriber only pays for the features the he or she needs to use.

 

Up to several companies may use one Globe Business PayrollCloud system. Each company is recognized by the system as a separate Globe Business PayrollCloud user. Globe Business PayrollCloud also manages reports and security related to payroll files on a per company basis.

 

Payroll related information, whether large or small, are easily handled, stored and managed through the Globe Business PayrollCloud system. Users may transfer or copy timesheets and payroll information from other sources. These data may be stored, retrieved or changed at a time and place of the user's convenience, using the Internet.

 

Fast and convenient

 

Since the Globe Business PayrollCloud system is operated through the highly-advanced and reliable servers of the Globe network, a company needs very little preparation to implement the system. All that the company needs is an office computer and a Globe Business Internet connection.

 

Using Globe Business PayrollCloud is also convenient because no bulky, space-consuming hardware is needed. No additional software needs to be installed and to be learned before using it. The system can be implemented very soon, since the personnel training and set-up don't take up much time—and this training and set-up are done free of charge.

 

The Globe Business PayrollCloud system is on the World Wide Web, so it is accessible from any place where there's an Internet connection. This gives concerned personnel the freedom and convenience to use the system even when outside the office.

 

Globe Business PayrollCloud can handle reports and transactions related to the BIR, SSS, Philhealth, and Pag-IBIG Fund. Globe Business PayrollCloud has an alert feature that helps ensure timely submission and remittance for every payment period. Compliance reports are generated with just a mouse-click.

 

Globe Business PayrollCloud also offers entrepreneurs the added convenience of talking only to one provider, Globe Business, for the payroll system, the wireline and wireless connectivity, and other business solutions.

 

"When you get the Globe Business PayrollCloud, you get a complete business solution that is backed by the advanced, secure and reliable network of Globe Telecom. This also allows for faster data traffic and faster transactions when you use the system.

 

"Since Globe Business PayrollCloud is based in the Philippines through Globe Telecom, getting product and customer support is easy—and subscribers pay no charge for it. Software and system upgrades are also done for free," said Romero.
