About Nakisa Workforce Planning

Nakisa Workforce Planning (previously HR Suite) is cloud-native software for workforce planning, organizational design, org charting, and HR analytics. Built for 5000+ employee enterprises, it offers powerful org charts, advanced dashboards and reports, enhanced org simulation and modeling capabilities as well as annual headcount planning and skill-gap analytics.

Nakisa allows you to connect multiple isolated data sources and gather all the HR information in one centralized place. Besides high API connectivity, we offer native bidirectional ERP integrations to SAP HCM, SAP SuccessFactors, Workday, and Oracle with write-back capabilities. Better data consistency means less time spent on data verification. Once your data is centralized in Nakisa, you can easily visualize it in org charts and create dozens of out-of-the-box reports.

Nakisa Workforce Planning portfolio consists of three product suites:

The Org Chart Suite ensures organizational structure visualization and advanced workforce analytics. Load multiple organization structures, visualize legal and functional reporting lines, and track remote/onsite, internal/external, full-time/part-time roles easily. Enjoy numero...

us pre-built configurable reports and dashboards like People Analytics, Recruitment Dashboard, Termination Dashboard, Transfers Dashboard, Position Dashboard, Succession Management Dashboard, SOC (Span of Control) Dashboard & report, Organizational Layers Dashboard, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Report, Various Trends charts, and more. The best thing is that all the reports and dashboards are easy to configure with our intuitive UI, so you don’t need to ask your IT team or our Support team to customize a report for you. HR users can finally create graphs on the fly to visualize the target metrics. 2) The Org Design Suite helps enterprises reshape organization structure during business transformations (mergers, acquisitions, integrations, or divestitures). Assign parts of the structure to dedicated managers or HR professionals, create new scenarios, and compare them in a two-pane mode. You can track the impacts of various scenarios on your KPIs such as HC, SOC, depth, layer, and DEI to ensure that specific goals are measured and reached. While modeling, synchronize data with ERP sources, set role-based permissions for managers and HR professionals under their Area of Responsibility, and keep track of changes with Activity Log, Audit Log, Changes Report, and Write-back Report. Also, all managers across the organization can benefit from Nakisa to design their teams and departments. Our solution enables managers and HR teams to collaborate side-by-side and build the most efficient organizational structure based on real-time data and KPIs. 3) The Strategic Workforce Planning Suite empowers your organization with intuitive annual headcount plans and skill-gap analysis to optimize staffing levels, bridge skill gaps, and align your headcount planning with long-term strategic objectives. Nakisa Workforce Planning uses microservices and the latest cloud computing technologies such as Kafka, Kubernetes, Elasticsearch, Keycloak, and more. All these innovative technologies ensure Nakisa’s scalability, security, and regular updates: ● Scalability: Nakisa can easily handle large amounts of data. Based on microservices, it can scale up to your business needs in seconds. ● An uptime SLA of 99.5%: Nakisa is a failure-tolerant and self-healing system that maintains an uptime availability of 99.5%. ● Privacy and Security: Single Sign-On, SOC 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II, GDPR-ready, IT General Control – we take your security seriously! ● Regular Updates: Unlike other on-prem or cloud-based solutions, we have regular updates every 6-8 weeks and 2 major releases per year Nakisa also provides all clients with top-notch 24/7 customer support, dedicated account managers, and onboarding & training.

Pros:

The Hanelly solution met our requirements to have different views into our organizational structure - solid reporting lines as well as functional reporting lines. We originally implemented Hanelly on-premise and connected to our global SAP HCM system. After implementing SuccessFactors, we moved Hanelly to the cloud and the transition was seamless.

Cons:

I would prefer if customers could do more in terms of system configuration rather than needing to depend on Nakisa development resources.

Reasons for choosing Nakisa Workforce Planning

Overall functionality and the willingness of Nakisa to partner with us.

Reasons for switching to Nakisa Workforce Planning

We needed the flexibility to have a holistic view into our organizational structure.

Vendor Response

Hi Calvin, thank you so much for leaving us a five-star review. At Nakisa, we are dedicated to putting the customer and their satisfaction first and we're delighted to see that reflected in your experience with us. Have you had a chance to look at our latest version of Hanelly? Hanelly 3.6 includes a new configuration manager which empowers our customers to do more configurations themselves, including the addition of new views and fields in the solution itself through a friendly user interface.

Most user-friendly org design solution on the market

Prior to working with Nakisa Hanelly, building updated org charts and implementing changes for a single division could take days to accomplish manually. Today, updates for the entire organization take only a few hours to complete. Nakisa Hanelly also allowed the organization to identify pre-existing errors in reporting lines.

Pros:

Nakisa Hanelly’s out-of-the-box dashboards provide us with access to a single source of current, accurate data, as well as the ability to leverage dynamic filtering on advanced analytics supporting our organizational design and workforce realignment strategies.

Cons:

The export function (to PowerPoint and PDF) shows organograms per level in the organization. It would be great if their was another functionality that could export it on a business unit/department level for the entire organization. However this is a minor "con" as there are workarounds to get this view by simply expanding on specific business units/departments and then exporting the organograms.

Reasons for choosing Nakisa Workforce Planning

Nakisa Hanelly is the most user-friendly org design solution on the market, and offers a comprehensive set of functions with regards to analytics, dashboards and scenario based designing.

Functionality

Pros:

After spending time investigating multiple solution options and discovering none met our needs without customization, a colleague suggested we look at Nakisa. Nakisa Hanelly gives us the advanced organizational charts we need, fully integrated to and complimentary of our HCM solution, and with great visualization out of the box.

Cons:

There is a learning curve, as with most software. The menus and icons require practice to remember and navigate successfully.

Vendor Response

Thanks for sharing your experience with us and we appreciate the kind words. We take pride in having a solution that addresses a large majority of requirements out-of-the-box. Earlier this year, we released a set of Hanelly e-Learning capsules to our customer base which will provide a simple way to get your user-base trained on the solution. Please reach out to your Account Manager if you think this would be helpful so we can get your and your team access!
