Weston, Fla.-based Ultimate Software is a well-known provider of unified, end-to-end human capital management  SaaS (News - Alert) solutions in North America. Its UltiPro solution -- on-demand service through Software-as-a-Service -- has gained wide acceptance among HR professionals.

The company recently announced that customers are enjoying greater convenience in managing employees with the UltiPro application for the Apple iPhone (News - Alert), which is available on the iTunes Store.

iPhones are commonly used by the employees of the organizations and the UltiPro app for the Apple iPhone will add to the convenience of the HR staff of the companies.

With this app, UltiPro customers can give their HR staff, managers, and employees instant access to important HCM information via the Apple (News - Alert) iPhone. This speeds up decision making process by allowing the HR managers to make effective decisions and conduct business regardless of location or time of day.

As for example, managers can approve or deny daily workflow transactions — such as salary changes and paid time off — using their iPhones, and all employees can quickly access their company’s portal, scan the employee directory to look up contact information or employee photos, and more.

Mya Sanger, HR systems administrator for Panhandle State Bank is one of the many UltiPro customers, who are reaping the benefits of UltiPro app for iPhone.

“I love this application. I especially like how it tells you how many new items are in your inbox right on the screen. The employee directory will be a big hit with our managers. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Ultimate Software,” Sanger said.

The organization has to first enable the UltiPro iPhone app for its employees.

The end users will be able to access the UltiPro app just as they would any other iPhone application by downloading it from the Apple iTunes Store and logging into the application with the same sign-on used at work to access UltiPro.

“Many of our employees already are iPhone users, so the new UltiPro application can add a lot of value and convenience. Not only can we access our UltiPro inbox at any time, but employees can sign in quickly and securely no matter where they are. The iPhone app is another example of Ultimate staying on the cutting edge of technology and providing tools for its customers that increase efficiency,” Sanger said.

According to Ultimate officials, their company always strives to innovate and bring to the market solutions, that are relevant to present business dynamics. And the latest iPhone app is the proof of the company’s efforts at constsnt innovation.

“At Ultimate, we strive to make our solution as relevant to today’s business dynamics as possible, with access options that reflect the way our customers truly operate and conduct business on a day-to-day basis. The UltiPro iPhone app is just one of the many ways we’ve stayed agile and continued to innovate our technology,” said Adam Rogers, chief technology officer for Ultimate Software. “We’re very pleased to see that customers are enjoying benefits from the convenience of the UltiPro iPhone app.”
