Every feature your team needs. Nothing it doesn't.
KanduHR brings employee management, time off, reviews, recognition, and reporting together in one clean, affordable platform.
Employee Management
Your entire team, organised and accessible
A central, searchable directory that gives everyone the right level of visibility. Managers see what they need. Employees see what's relevant. Admins see everything.
- Searchable employee directory with photo, role, department, and contact details
- Rich profiles with employment history, documents, and custom notes
- Department and reporting line structures
- Role-based access control — owner, admin, manager, employee, contractor, accountant
- Bulk invite via email to onboard your whole team in minutes
Time Off & Calendar
Leave requests and approvals, simplified
No more email chains or spreadsheet trackers. Employees request time off in a click, managers approve from their dashboard, and the calendar updates instantly.
- One-click leave requests with configurable leave types
- Full-day and half-day support (morning/afternoon)
- Manager and admin approval workflows with instant notifications
- "Who's off today" calendar view for the whole company
- Annual allowance tracking and leave balance visibility
- Book time off on behalf of employees (admin feature)
Performance Reviews
Structured reviews that drive real conversations
Create review cycles with configurable periods and rating scales. Employees complete self-assessments, managers add their evaluation — all in a guided two-step workflow.
- Configurable review periods (quarterly, bi-annual, annual, or custom)
- Two-step workflow: self-assessment first, then manager review
- Star ratings, written feedback, and draft saving
- Dashboard overview of all reviews and their completion status
- Review history preserved for future reference
Goal Tracking
Set goals. Track progress. Stay aligned.
Give every team member clear objectives with measurable progress. Goals feed into performance reviews so development conversations always have context.
- Individual and team goals with progress bars
- Categories, due dates, and priority levels
- Filter by status: in progress, completed, overdue
- Goals link directly to performance review context
- Visible to the employee and their manager
Employee Surveys
Pulse checks and engagement insights
Create surveys with multiple question types and get honest feedback from your team. Anonymous responses available so people feel safe sharing what matters.
- Multiple question types: rating scale, free text, multiple choice, yes/no
- Anonymous response option for candid feedback
- Results dashboard with response rates and average scores
- Per-question breakdowns for detailed analysis
- Send to the whole company or specific departments
Recognition
Celebrate wins, big and small
Peer-to-peer recognition that builds culture organically. Colleagues can recognise each other with categories, personal messages, and a company-wide feed that makes good work visible.
- Peer-to-peer recognition from any team member
- Configurable categories (teamwork, innovation, customer focus, etc.)
- Company-wide recognition feed
- Instant notifications when you're recognised
- Slack integration for recognition announcements
Reporting & Analytics
Data-driven decisions, not guesswork
Interactive dashboards give you a clear picture of headcount, leave patterns, expenses, and department breakdowns — with CSV export when you need to dig deeper.
- Headcount, leave usage, expense, and department reports
- Interactive charts and data visualisations
- CSV export for every report
- Admin-only access for sensitive data
- Configurable manager visibility settings
Document Management
Company documents and policies, centralised
Upload, organise, and share documents across your organisation. Contracts, handbooks, policies — everything lives in one place with proper access controls.
- Upload and categorise company documents
- Share with specific employees or the whole organisation
- Attach documents directly to employee profiles
- Access control so sensitive files stay private
- Search and filter for quick retrieval
