OpenHR 8 Recap

“Over the past two/three months that I have been using OpenHR Version 8, I have been surprised with the changes that have been introduced on this version. I have found it to be much more user friendly, which has had a positive time‐management impact and the layout and aesthetics are very pleasing and have aided easier use. I am a big fan.”‐ Helen Adams, HR Admin, Chestertons.
