Read this page as one judge. Each weighs the same scores by what they care about.

The Skeptic

Weighted verdict

Has watched three HR suites promise one system and deliver five modules with a shared logo. Reads every claim for what it does not say: which module the feature lives in, what it costs on top, and whether "integration" means a maintained connector or a documented endpoint someone could build against.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Digital personnel file & data model

How this is scored

The system of record: employee master data, the digital personnel file, org structure, custom fields, and whether history is kept rather than overwritten.

0 — Not a system of record for employees; the product holds no employee master data or personnel file.

3 — Employee records with master data and documents uploaded to a personnel file; org structure, custom fields and change history are basic or not described.

5 — A digital personnel file with employee master data and document storage, an org chart or department structure, custom fields, and access to the record controlled by role.

8 — Complete record: versioned contract and compensation history with effective dates, document templates with e-signature, org structure supporting multiple entities and cost centres, and granular field-level permissions.

10 — The file is the single source of truth an auditor could work from: full effective-dated history on every field, retention rules per document type, delegated administration per entity, and export that reproduces the record intact.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The module list names HR admin, Documents and E-signing, and the payroll pages speak of syncing from "Alexis master data", so employee records and a document store clearly exist. Beyond that the captured pages go quiet: org structure, custom fields, change history, versioned contracts and permissions on the file itself are not described anywhere, which is exactly the level of a basic record with documents attached. 1 2 3

Payroll handoff

How this is scored

Whether the month closes cleanly into payroll — DATEV, Lohn und Gehalt, an in-house system or an external tax adviser — and how much of that is automated rather than re-typed.

0 — Payroll is outside the product: it holds none of the pay-relevant data and offers no path toward payroll.

3 — A payroll-relevant export (CSV, Excel or PDF) of master data, absences or hours for the payroll office; named formats and mid-month changes are basic or not described.

5 — A named payroll integration or a documented export for at least one major system (e.g. DATEV LODAS/Lohn und Gehalt), or the vendor's own payroll module, covering master data, absences and the recurring monthly changes.

8 — Certified or vendor-maintained integration with a named payroll provider, covering variable pay, absences and mid-month joiners and leavers, with a documented pre-payroll check.

10 — Payroll is a first-class part of the product: maintained bidirectional integrations with several named systems, an auditable approval and lock step before transmission, retro-accounting for backdated changes, and the tax adviser given their own access.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The payroll page shows real automation — turnkey integrations that "automatically update your payroll system from Alexis master data", payroll report export, a view of the upcoming salary report, and configurable payroll administrator roles with export permission control. But not a single payroll system is named on any captured page, and absences, mid-month joiners and leavers and any pre-payroll check are not described, so this sits below the level of a named integration. 2 1

Absence & working-time

How this is scored

Vacation, sickness and working-time recording — including whether the product meets the German recording duty (BAG 2022, ArbZG) rather than merely offering a timer.

0 — Absence and working time are outside the product's scope.

3 — Vacation requests with an approval step and an absence overview; entitlement rules and working-time recording are basic or not described.

5 — Vacation and sickness recorded with automatic entitlement balances, a team absence calendar with public holidays, and working-time recording with a report per employee.

8 — Configurable per country and contract: pro-rata entitlement and carry-over, public-holiday calendars per location, break and rest-period rules, overtime accounts, and an export the employer can hand to a labour inspection.

10 — Working-time recording built as a legal obligation rather than a feature: tamper-evident records, documented compliance with the ArbZG recording duty, works-council-configurable monitoring limits, and shift or on-call models handled without add-ons.

Report an error

The Skeptic

"Time management" appears as two words in the module list and nothing more. Vacation requests, entitlement balances, sickness and working-time recording are not described on any captured page, and the German recording duty is never mentioned — I found no public information on whether the product addresses it. 1

Recruiting & onboarding

How this is scored

The join path — vacancy to signed contract to a person who has an account, equipment and a plan on day one.

0 — Neither applicant tracking nor onboarding is part of the product.

3 — Job postings with an applicant list and statuses, or an onboarding checklist for new hires; the handover between the two is basic or not described.

5 — Applicant tracking with a careers page, pipeline stages and candidate communication, plus onboarding checklists or tasks for new hires, with the hired candidate carried into an employee record.

8 — Multi-posting to named job boards, interview scheduling and scorecards, GDPR-conscious applicant retention and deletion, e-signed contracts, and onboarding that triggers tasks in IT and payroll.

10 — The whole join is one governed flow: approval-gated requisitions with budget, structured and bias-conscious evaluation, automated applicant deletion at the stated deadline, and provisioning driven from the record so day one needs no HR intervention.

Report an error

The Skeptic

Onboarding is described in welcome detail: preboarding templates, employee agreements sent for e-signature, to-dos with automatic email feeds, flows customized by role, department and country, and user provisioning that creates accounts in business applications. The recruiting half of the join path is nearly empty — recruiting appears only inside an integrations blurb, with no applicant tracking, careers page or pipeline described — so the flow stops short of running from vacancy to hire. 3 1

Employee data protection & co-determination

How this is scored

How the product handles the most sensitive personal data a company holds — retention, deletion, role separation, subject rights — and whether it can pass a works council (BetrVG §87) rather than merely a procurement checklist.

0 — The vendor states that it offers no data processing agreement and no separation of access, leaving employee data protection entirely to the customer.

3 — A data processing agreement (AVV) available and roles that separate HR administrators from managers and employees; retention, deletion and co-determination settings are basic or not described.

5 — A data processing agreement available, roles and permissions configurable per module or team, deletion of employee and applicant data supported, and GDPR or works-council guidance describing how the product supports compliance.

8 — Field-level access control with an audit log of who read what, configurable retention per data category with automatic deletion, documented subject-rights support, and monitoring or analytics features that can be switched off for co-determination.

10 — Built for the works council to say yes: published processing documentation and subprocessor list, per-entity data separation, tamper-evident audit trail, evaluation and behavioural-analysis features off by default with their scope documented, and a data-protection impact assessment the customer can build on.

Report an error

The Skeptic

A privacy policy, terms and conditions and a data processing agreement are listed, and configurable payroll administrator roles with export permission control give a first taste of access separation. Retention rules, deletion of employee or applicant data, audit logging, subject-rights handling and anything a works council could read are not described on the captured pages — "GDPR & Schrems II compliant" is a badge, not documentation. 1 2 3

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Where the data lives, who the contracting entity is, who the subprocessors are, and whether the answer is documented rather than assumed. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; scored here as the buyer would weigh it. Dimensions not proven either way are unknown, not non-European.

0 — Vendor, contracting entity and hosting shown to be outside the EU, and no data processing agreement offered.

3 — A privacy policy and a data processing agreement exist and one European element is proven (an EU contracting entity or representative, or EU hosting as an option); the rest of the chain is not stated.

5 — An EU contracting entity and EU hosting stated, with a data processing agreement; the subprocessor list is not published in full or includes non-EU providers without a stated safeguard.

8 — EU or DACH hosting with a named data-centre provider, an EU contracting entity, the full subprocessor list published with locations, and any non-EU processing named with its legal basis.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: vendor, contracting entity, hosting and every subprocessor in the EU, certification of the data centres published, and an on-premises or private-cloud option for buyers who need it.

Report an error

The Skeptic

The contracting entity is AlexisHR AB of Stockholm, the captured pages state servers are "located within EU (Belgium)" holding ISO 27001 and SOC II certifications, and a data processing agreement is published — EU entity, EU hosting, DPA. The chain stops there: no subprocessor list, no named data-centre provider and no published certificates appear on the captured pages. 1 2

Pricing transparency not rated — the vendor publishes no price

How this is scored

Whether an HR lead can compute the real annual invoice for their headcount — including the modules they actually need — from public pages alone.

0 — No public prices at all; every tier is a sales conversation.

3 — A public "from" price per employee or one priced tier; how cost scales with modules, minimum headcount or setup is unclear.

5 — Per-employee prices public for the main tiers with the billing period stated and the main inclusions given; some modules (payroll, time, recruiting) or setup may be unpriced.

8 — Every tier and module priced publicly with per-employee maths, billing period, minimum term and VAT treatment stated; only genuinely custom enterprise work lacks a number.

10 — Complete price computability: a calculator or table that produces the annual invoice for a given headcount and module selection, including setup, minimums and renewal terms.

Report an error

The Skeptic

Across the homepage and both feature pages I found no price, no per-employee rate, no tier, no billing period and no setup figure — nothing a buyer could compute an invoice from. The only purchase route the captured pages show is "Book a free demo", which points every cost question into a sales conversation. 1 2 3
