Ontario-based firm OpenText recently introduced its OpenText People Center — a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) application designed to deepen companies’ profiles in the HR industry — at its annual Enterprise World summit in Toronto.
Crafted to streamline HR procedures, OpenText People Center lets HR units establish an employee portal with access to documents and analytical capacities. The app will first become available in late summer 2017 beginning in North America, according to company spokespersons.
OpenText’s EVP of engineering Muhi Majzoub described how the new application is built on the company’s existing OpenText AppWorks, with a “low-code development environment” permitting easy tailoring for individual businesses’ needs.
“The low-code platform speeds up development by enabling developers to rapidly design, build and deploy applications,” Majzoub told ITWorld Canada. “It also enables developers to easily build new applications or extend applications as needed using built APIs and RESTful or content services, such as the OpenText LEAP family of products.”
Advantages of the new system include the ability to consolidate content for easier regulatory compliance; its user-friendly capacity to accept, track and respond to queries; and greater visibility and overview on key metrics and service-level agreements.
OpenText People Center expands the company’s enterprise information management suite and can be deployed on site, in the cloud or as a hybrid.
