HR Tech ROI Calculators
Typically when we write up one of our HR software buyer guides for various HR Tech categories, we include an ROI calculator. These calculators are spreadsheets that are usually accompanied by a video on how to use the spreadsheet.
We do this because we think it’s so important to quantify how your efforts will impact the rest of the organization. Unfortunately, as a cost center, HR has a higher bar than other functions when it comes to getting budget for new tools.
Our hope is these calculators will allow you to get the budget you need, and allow you to quantify the impact your efforts are having on a strategic level.
