About Namely
Namely is a Human Capital Management (HCM) platform that brings HR, payroll and time tracking into one system. It is aimed at midsized companies that want to keep employee data in a single place.
The core platform covers HR records, payroll, time tracking, onboarding, reporting and a mobile app for employee self-service. Extra modules can be added as a business grows, including benefits administration, performance management, applicant tracking, workforce management and compliance guidance.
Namely also offers managed services, where its team runs payroll, benefits or HR processes on the customer's behalf, including a dedicated HR business partner. An API is documented for developers who want to connect Namely to other systems.
