PeopleXD
The entire employee journey in one connected experience.
PeopleXD is HR software for organisations with 500+ employees across the UK and Ireland, replacing the disconnected systems and separate logins that slow enterprise HR teams down.
One employee record, one view of pay, talent and workforce data, instead of multiple systems to check. And the right information finds the right person before they have to go looking for it.
PeopleXD is an HR management system designed for organisations with 500+ employees. It brings HR, Payroll, Talent, Workforce Management, Benefits and Learning into one platform.
Access Evo is the intelligent layer built in, working for every employee, manager and HR team, every day. And because it sits across every module, your team works in one place, while the platform handles the rest.
Built on Microsoft Azure, HMRC-accredited and governed to ISO 42001 standards, it’s an HR software solution your organisation can depend on.
Access Evo sits across your HR software and changes how the working day feels, quietly taking on the manual tasks that used to eat into you time. Nothing to learn and nothing to replace, with your data staying private, permissioned and exactly where it should be.
- Evo Navigator: Everything that needs attention, waiting when you open it
- Evo Researcher: The leadership report arrives already written
- Evo Workflow Automation: Your systems talk to each other automatically
- Evo Assistants: The smaller tasks handled in the background
- Evo Data Engine: Your own data, always current
PeopleXD combines the core HR capabilities needed for large, growing and complex organisations to manage, pay, engage and develop their workforce at scale. With everything connected, automated and surfaced through Access Evo, in one place.
One place for every people process, with compliance built in, costs reduced as admin falls away, and a single version of your data that’s always current. Including case management, which provides ER workflows, automated ACAS-aligned letters and deflects queries before they reach HR.
Grow capability and retain high performers, from recruitment through to succession, with flight risk alerts, succession gaps and team narratives surfaced before managers go looking.
Scheduling, time, absence and payroll sign-off, with coverage gaps and compliance risks flagged before the roster goes live, keeping large workforces productive, compliant and cost-controlled.
Run accurate, compliant payroll at scale. Connect pay, benefits and rewards to reduce risk, manual effort and payroll pressure across large organisations.
Attract, motivate, retain and hear your workforce with a unified approach to benefits, rewards, recognition, and employee listening, driving engagement without adding admin complexity.
An intuitive LMS with guided learning paths, curated eLearning content, and built-in compliance tracking to help you meet regulatory requirements today, while building the skills and leaders your organisation needs for tomorrow.
PeopleXD supports day‑to‑day work across payroll, scheduling, absence and talent, with Access Evo sitting across every module and working from your own live data.
It integrates with third-party systems, automates tasks that follow clear rules, flags workforce patterns before they become problems, and surfaces what needs attention, so large HR teams can work more efficiently across payroll, knowledge and daily admin, where:
One capability makes this possible everywhere at once. Quick Asks answers HR, pay, and schedule questions in everyday language, from any device, and does the next step. This means managers and HR teams complete actions without leaving their existing workflows, and spend the time saved on their people.

“We’ve been able to automate tasks, meaning we’ve been able to free up capability to reallocate 1 FTE to more value-add activity.”
“A task that took six hours to write a roster now takes less than 60 minutes. It’s not often we get to hand back five hours to every senior manager every week.”
“Automation of repetitive tasks, such as sending notifications and managing documents, has freed up valuable time and significantly boosted productivity.”
“We went from having numerous different solutions, to bringing everything together under one umbrella. We instantly saw the benefit of this, with everything available via a single sign-on. This has eradicated the need to source data from different places, providing us with better reporting."
Fast, pain-free go-live. Guided automation and proven processes combined with deep HR knowledge turn complex transitions into confident launches.
"We've got our dedicated Success Manager and our Account Manager, and every interaction is positive."
New features arrive as natural enhancements, not disruptive upgrades. Customer-shaped, real-world tested, delivered at your pace.

"Our experience has been extremely positive. It's significantly reduced the administrative burden on our team."
The cost of HR software will vary significantly for large and enterprise businesses due to increased complexity of requirements. Pricing is usually based on factors including employee numbers and the combination of modules, as different organisations will require different levels of functionality.
Costs also reflect implementation complexity. Integrating with existing systems, supporting multiple user roles, and meeting security or compliance requirements all influence overall investment. As a result, an HR software solution for larger organisations is commonly priced through tailored agreements rather than fixed packages, allowing the platform to align with operational and regulatory needs.

Find out how our HR platform can help you achieve your business goals.
Human resources software is a digital platform used to manage employee information, payroll, recruitment, workforce planning, performance management, learning and reporting. Modern human resources software combines multiple HR functions into a single system, helping organisations improve efficiency, compliance and employee experience.
HR software pricing can vary widely, especially at enterprise level. If you're looking for a full breakdown, read our guide to HR software costs - including average UK pricing, key cost drivers, and what to expect during implementation.
For larger organisations, HR systems are rarely off-the-shelf. Pricing depends on your structure, required functionality, integration needs, and global scalability. That’s why we offer tailored proposals aligned to your business goals.
Looking to build a business case? Use our HR Software ROI Report to explore the potential impact across recruitment, payroll software, and people operations.
As two critical departments in any organisation, it’s important that HR and payroll functions work together effectively. Key business tasks like ensuring employees are paid accurately and on time, employee benefits and deductions are correctly administered and tax, and other legal and compliance requirements are met, all require HR and payroll to work together in tandem.
Integrated HR and payroll software like PeopleXD can help larger departments or those with more complex requirements, to automate joint HR and payroll tasks. Using technology to help manage the seamless flow of data between the two functions also helps reduce time-consuming admin, ensure consistent employee record keeping and reduces business risk and chances of error when personal data is shared.
HR software is used by human resource departments to automate and streamline tasks and processes. It’s digital, providing analytics and insights for businesses as well as tools and resources for employees. Many integral processes can be streamlined using online HR systems, including recruitment, people management, absence management and compliance.
When choosing HR software for your business, consider the provider’s level of experience and customer support. Look for integrated solutions that are powerful enough to simplify complex tasks and consider a solution that is appropriate for the size of your business, with the ability to scale to your needs as you grow. This will save you time and money and ensure your investment is future-proofed.
A HRMS can help you:
With Access, you’ll get dedicated account managers to help you from integration to everyday use. You’ll also get access to other support options such as online resources, and phone and email support when you need it.
Our cloud-based HR software takes the stress out of compliance by automatically updating in line with the latest legislative requirement, such as tax rates and bands. Updates are applied first in your test environment, giving you complete visibility and control before anything goes live. You’ll also receive timely notifications to ensure you're always informed and prepared.
No manual intervention is needed. We proactively manage all regulatory changes on your behalf, reducing risk and saving your team valuable time. It’s a worry-free approach that ensures your HR software remains compliant - seamlessly and securely.
