Why choose CapoFine?

Choose CapoFine when the priority is the employee journey: recruitment, an active welcome and continuing learning, with clear responsibilities for HR, managers and new hires.

Give the welcome its own working space

Employee records tell you who is joining. The welcome needs to show that person what happens next. Onboard brings meetings, practical tasks, files and company discovery into a journey they can follow. Use stories to introduce the business and puzzles to help new hires recognise colleagues and remember useful information.

Match a buddy, schedule the first manager conversation and set goals for the first 30, 60 and 90 days. HR can target the journey by role, team, department or location. Progress and feedback show how the welcome is unfolding, while task ownership makes the next action clear.

  • Make people, activities and goals visible together.
  • Build journeys for different roles and locations.
  • Assign preparation work across HR, managers and IT.

Join the recruitment process to the welcome

Hire brings vacancies, candidate pipelines, communication and interviews into the same product family as onboarding. Recruiters can follow each candidate through the process, and hiring teams can record interview feedback before making a decision. That gives recruitment a dedicated place in a CapoFine Suite purchase.

An automatic handoff starts the Onboard journey after hiring. Keep the employee record with its designated owner and agree the connection if HiBob or another HRIS remains in use. The practical division is clear: recruitment in Hire, the welcome in Onboard, and payroll or absence administration with the system responsible for it.

  • Manage candidate pipelines and interview feedback.
  • Launch the employee journey after hiring.
  • Keep HR record ownership explicit across systems.

Turn the first learning tasks into continuing development

An employee's learning needs continue as they take on work. Grow supports courses and pathways for product knowledge, internal processes and role development. Assign the relevant learning to each audience, use gamification to support participation and make progress available to the people responsible for that learning.

For formal checks, use assessments with pass scores, retries and completion certificates. Onboarding events can trigger Grow assignments, connecting the welcome with the next course. This gives you a clear way to manage learning within the Suite while keeping broader HR administration in the system your organisation has chosen.

  • Assign learning to the relevant employee audience.
  • Connect onboarding events with Grow courses.
  • Use formal assessments and completion certificates.

Plan your move with usExplore security and data handling

  1. Set the ownership boundary

    List the employee fields, onboarding processes and talent modules in use. Assign an owner for each record and workflow, including payroll inputs and absence. Identify which information the CapoFine journey needs and which records should remain in your HR administration system.

  2. Build a representative employee path

    Choose a role and location with familiar onboarding requirements. Build its practical tasks, company content, buddy meetings and goals in Onboard. Add the relevant Grow learning, then check the experience with a manager and the people responsible for HR and IT preparation.

  3. Check connections before changing the intake

    Review the agreed HRIS connection, permissions and start-date changes. Keep the history your organisation needs accessible in its designated location. Move a defined intake once the responsible teams can follow employee access, task ownership and the course assignments through the complete journey.

More about CapoFine vs HiBob

Can we keep HiBob as our HRIS?

Yes, through an agreed integration. HiBob can retain employee records and HR administration while CapoFine manages the selected recruitment, onboarding and learning processes. Map the fields, events and permissions the connection requires.

Does CapoFine replace payroll and absence management?

No. Hire, Onboard and Grow focus on recruitment, onboarding and learning. Keep payroll, absence and other Core HR administration with the systems responsible for those processes.

Can different locations use different onboarding journeys?

Yes. Onboard targets journeys by role, team, department and location. Use reusable templates for shared material, then tailor the activities, people and practical requirements for each audience.

How does learning follow the onboarding journey?

Onboarding events can trigger learning assignments in Grow. Employees receive courses and pathways for their next stage, with formal assessments, retries and completion certificates where the learning requires them.

What should be included in the comparison quote?

List the recruitment, onboarding and learning work you need, plus integrations and implementation services. HiBob prices Core with selected modules, so compare the actual product combination against the CapoFine Suite configuration you intend to use.
