Questions, answered

How long does a HR system take?

Typically 12–20 weeks, depending on scope and integrations. You get a planned timeline in writing before any work starts.

Can it connect to the systems we already use?

Usually, yes. Payments, bookings, stock, accounting and CRM tools all have integration options. We check yours on the free call and list them in the proposal.

Do we have to build everything at once?

No. Many clients start with the admin system, then add the rest once it’s paying for itself. Each phase is planned to stand on its own.

Do we own it?

Yes. Code, designs, content and accounts are yours.
