The TAdviser center investigated by criterion of completeness of functionality of a personnel management system (HRM), available in Russia. As experts note, the number of the products presented at the market in two years increased more than by a third. "Control automation by personnel today one of priorities for many Russian companies which brought order to the financial blocks, - Mikhail says to Santo, the managing partner of TAdviser. – For this reason the number of new solutions grows in this segment". In total analysts revealed 26 "live" HRM systems, 17 of which are created in Russia. From them only 6 – the specialized HRM systems, and the others 20 – subsystems of full-function ERP systems.

Specialists of TAdviser analyzed functionality of the solutions which entered the overview therefore "the functionality matrix" and, on its base, the rating of HRM systems and their developers was made. The considered software products were grouped in a class of functional completeness. (Classes A, B, C, D, E, F and G. And in a number of classes subclasses for systems differing in functional completeness on 1 parameter were selected.) According to the executed assessment from 25 considered, to the first two classes there correspond 8 solutions.

In group "A"; the systems of SAP, Oracle and UCMS companies which are, practically, a standard on the width of the implemented functionality (in them 29 blocks of "operational", "user" and "strategic" technology levels of HRM systems are implemented) got, to group A’ solutions   of IFS and BOSS. Personnel systems companies are carried (28 blocks are implemented). In "the second echelon" there passed solutions of companies Epicor|Scala, Galaktika and INEC (27 blocks from 29 are implemented).

At group "C" there are products of AGroup companies, "Informkontakt", Business of Technology, Compass and Monolith (on 26 functional units from 29).

Solutions of the B and C group also find the consumers. Having lower total cost of ownership (TCO), on functional saturation they are often comparable to solutions of group "A". Differences in the functional list of representatives of these two groups are basic only when accounting specifics of specific business. At the same time, use of solutions of groups "B" and "C" often can be the most effective for the customer in view of not demand of functional differences of solutions with representatives of group "A".

Solutions in which 23-24 functional units are implemented were carried to the group "D", solutions in which 14-15 functional units are implemented were carried to the least functionally complete group "G" (i.e. a half of possible functionality). Functionally less complete solutions were not considered within this overview any more.

Apparently from the provided data, certain domestic developers brought the solutions to  the classes "A" and "B". Thus, the level of functional completeness of the HRM systems of the Russian origin is quite high. At the same time, it seems to select reasonablly market leaders of HRM systems in two groups: foreign and domestic suppliers.

Thus, three leading of the Russian market of HRM systems foreign suppliers includes SAP, Oracle and UCMS companies. The similar three of the Russian vendors is made by BOSS. Personnel systems, Galaktika Corporation and INEC. In the last two years, despite growth of number of products in the market of HRM systems, serious changes in functionality of most of them it was not mentioned.

Generally changes in the installed solutions concerned completion of functionality in the listed above modules, but not creation of new. At the same time, the noticeable movement of solution providers towards the SaaS model became an important trend. In top three on functionality the Swedish Quinyx WorkForce system used by customers only according to the SaaS model for the first time escaped.

"Results of a research of TAdviser showed that the software products provided on the Software on-Demand model quite can compete by a functional part with traditional offline - solutions, at the same time, having lower total cost of ownership, - Andrey Shabanov, the managing director of UCMS Group of the CIS (Quinyx WorkForce developer) says. In a research data more than about 400 projects on implementation of automated control systems for personnel in our country were considered.       

 

Maxim Yazev, head of support department and localization of AGroup company:

the last years the accurate trend of development of the HRM systems presented at the Russian market was outlined – systems which grew from automation of routine processes gradually are replenished with functions of strategic management by personnel. The class of specialized HRM solutions forms. Development of systems generally has quantitative character, i.e. expansion of functionality due to development of new modules.

I consider that evolution of the HRM solution also should be and qualitative as transition from automation of accounting to formalization of management means technology and architectural changes. First of all, it concerns:

• expansions of the participant list of processes – from professional users to ordinary participants, including workers;
• the main management tools – document flow, modeling and the analysis.

One more important principle of evolution of a system – development "with a stock" on the basis of best practices, i.e. not just the statement of new opportunities, and availability of ready-made practical solutions. In the new version of our product for personnel management – the HRB system -  we managed not only to save all baggage of the accumulated knowledge, but also to implement new functionality, avoiding hereditary restrictions of the previous versions.

Data on number of implementations of 23 HRM systems in the territory of Russia and the CIS countries are provided in complete report version of TAdviser.

[1]   Within the report only those projects on which TAdviser was succeeded to find or obtain data on the name of the organization customer, project completion date and number of staff of the organization customer at developer company are considered. The general number of HRM projects in Russia since the beginning of the 1990th years makes till present more than 10.000. Thus, data reflect in this table not the total number of implementation projects of this or that HRM system, and the number of projects on which the relevant data are opened.
