Ciphr Payroll also offers single sign-on as standard, centralised data security, and is accessible anytime, from any location, providing full flexibility for payroll teams.
Julie Lally, managing director of payroll at Ciphr, says: “Being shortlisted for two CIPP Awards is a very proud moment for all of us at Ciphr. It’s a huge testament to the innovation and commitment of our incredible team.
“When developing Ciphr Payroll, we focused on solving the challenges that payroll professionals often face with their payroll technology and legacy systems, such as inefficiencies, lack of automation, poor integration, onerous legislative updates, clunky user experience and reporting gaps. It’s designed by payroll experts, for payroll experts, so every button makes sense, every task is streamlined, and every calculation is crunched in true real-time.
“Ciphr Payroll delivers real value and makes the complex simple. It really is
a game-changer for the payroll profession.”
