What is employee onboarding software?
Employee onboarding software is a tool HR teams use to collect documents, get contracts signed, and guide new hires through required steps before their first day. You will also see it called HR onboarding software; both names describe the same kind of tool. Clustdoc does this with a checklist-driven portal: you define the steps once, and every new hire completes them in order while your team reviews and approves from one dashboard. It replaces the email threads and spreadsheets most teams use today.
Can Clustdoc work as an onboarding documentation system?
Yes, collecting and organizing onboarding documentation is exactly what Clustdoc is built for. You request the documents, certificates, and files each new hire must provide, and everything they submit is grouped in your account by person and by step. Reviewers can approve files, reject them with comments, or route them to another department for sign-off.
Does Clustdoc support paperless employee onboarding?
Yes, the entire process runs online with no paper involved. New hires upload files, fill in forms, and sign contracts from any computer or laptop, using legally binding e-signature for HR documents like offer letters and employment contracts. HR teams in 40+ countries use Clustdoc to run fully digital employee onboarding, including flows in 10+ languages.
How is employee onboarding software different from employee document management software?
Onboarding software handles the process of bringing a new employee in: checklists, document collection, approvals, and contract signing before and around the start date. Document management covers storing and organizing employee files over the long term, which Clustdoc addresses on its employee document management software page. This page, and Clustdoc’s onboarding flows, focus on getting new hires from offer to day one.
