Minimize downtime risks, maximize data sovereignty: Why on-premises HR systems can be the better choice

When choosing your HR software, are you faced with the decision between a pure cloud solution or a local installation in the company?

In fact, choosing the right HR software today is more than just a question of functionalities. It affects business processes, data security, legal requirements and, increasingly, the strategic direction of a company. While cloud solutions are considered the gold standard in many areas and software providers are increasingly focusing on “cloud-only” strategies, on-premises systems are experiencing a surprising renaissance – especially in the sensitive HR environment.

Why are many companies consciously deciding against the cloud trend and opting for local HR software solutions? Find out the strategic and practical reasons for a local solution like moonsoft’s and why an on-premises strategy might be the right choice for your company.

moonsoft HR Solutions offers its comprehensive HR suite as a fully-featured on-premises solution that is tailored to the needs of Austrian companies, particularly in the payroll area.

If our customers want to move to the cloud at some point – no problem! A hybrid approach with hosting in the company and complete service by moonsoft is also possible.

Why on-premises solutions for HR systems?

Control & data sovereignty as top priorities

The increasing awareness of data protection and data security has a direct impact on IT strategies in companies. A data leak or data breach may not only lead to legal consequences, it may also result in a massive loss of trust among employees.
With moonsoft’s on-premises solution, companies retain complete control over their data and ensure that sensitive employee data is not processed or stored outside their own infrastructure. This enables our customers to meet the highest compliance requirements, especially in regulated industries or the public sector.

Reliability and strategic independence

Cloud-based systems are dependent on the availability and security of external service providers. A downtime or security breach on the provider’s side can have a direct impact on business operations.
With a local solution such as moonsoft HR Solutions, companies minimize such risks and are not dependent on third-party infrastructure. This can be crucial for critical areas such as payroll accounting. With an in-house strategy, companies also retain control over their IT decisions and are not dependent on their provider’s roadmap.

Adaptability and integration

On-premises systems offer greater flexibility when it comes to adapting to specific company processes and requirements. Especially in payroll accounting, legal regulations and operational peculiarities must go hand in hand.
moonsoft’s solutions adapt individually to the requirements of our customers. Customized workflows, special payroll rules or industry-specific features – we focus on the needs of our customers.

Conclusion

For companies with the highest requirements in terms of data protection, control and operational security, the on premise HR suite from moonsoft HR Solutions offers a future-proof and reliable solution. With local data storage, full control over all processes and the ability to customize to company requirements, our in-house version is an ideal alternative to cloud-only systems.
