Zoho People. HR Management & Leave Tracking Setup, Pune
Leave management, attendance tracking, org charts, and HR workflows. Configured for Indian labour compliance and designed to grow with your headcount.
Your HR operations, structured and automated.
Zoho People is a cloud HR platform that replaces spreadsheets, paper forms, and scattered WhatsApp leave requests with structured workflows. It handles the full employee lifecycle from onboarding to exit, leave management, attendance tracking, document storage, performance reviews, and employee self-service, all in one place.
Most Indian companies outgrow manual HR processes around 20-30 employees. That is when leave tracking becomes chaotic, attendance records get disputed, and HR spends more time on admin than on people. Aaxonix configures Zoho People to match your company's actual policies. Indian leave types, shift patterns, approval hierarchies, and statutory requirements, so it works the way your team already operates.
Automated leave approvals, balance calculations, and holiday calendars eliminate back-and-forth emails.
Biometric integration and geo-fenced check-ins replace manual registers and disputed records.
Employees apply for leave, view payslips, update details, and download documents without HR involvement.
Everything your HR team needs, nothing they don't.

Custom leave types for Indian policies. Earned Leave, Casual Leave, Sick Leave, Compensatory Off, with carry-forward, encashment rules, and holiday calendars for multiple locations.

Our Zoho People implementation process.
Discovery & Scoping
We audit your current HR processes, leave policies, attendance rules, approval chains, and pain points. We document your company's leave types, holiday calendars, shift patterns, and reporting structure to build a precise configuration plan.
Architecture & Configuration
We set up leave types with Indian statutory rules, configure attendance tracking with your biometric devices or check-in method, build approval workflows matching your hierarchy, and create custom forms for onboarding and exit processes.
Data Migration & Testing
We import your existing employee data, leave balances, and attendance history. Every leave type, approval workflow, and attendance rule is tested with real scenarios before going live. We run parallel processing to verify accuracy.
Training & Go-Live Support
HR admins get hands-on training for configuration and reporting. Managers learn approval workflows. Employees get onboarded to the self-service portal and mobile app. We provide 30 days of post-go-live support for adjustments.

Common questions about Zoho People.
Zoho People supports custom leave types including Earned Leave, Casual Leave, Sick Leave, and Compensatory Off with carry-forward and encashment rules. We configure it to match your company's leave policy and Indian statutory requirements, including state-specific rules for Shops & Establishments Act compliance.
Yes. Zoho People integrates with most biometric devices via API or file-based sync. We set up real-time attendance capture from fingerprint or face recognition devices, map it to shift schedules, and configure automatic regularization workflows for missed punches.
Zoho One includes Zoho People as part of its 45+ app bundle, so the HR module is identical. The difference is licensing: if you only need HR software, standalone Zoho People is more cost-effective. If your team also uses CRM, Books, or Projects, Zoho One gives you better per-user value.
A typical Zoho People implementation takes 3-6 weeks depending on team size and complexity. Simple setups for 20-50 employees can go live in 2-3 weeks. Larger rollouts with biometric integration, multi-location attendance rules, and custom approval workflows usually need 5-6 weeks.
