How ecosio’s People and Culture Ops Lead modernised their HR operations

The Challenge

ecosio, a B2B integration provider, relied on a lightweight HR system that only supported time tracking. Payroll, performance cycles, and compensation reviews were manual and time-consuming—the HR team lacked visibility into retention and engagement metrics.

The Solution

ecosio went with HiBob for its ability to automate workflows, improve data accuracy, and integrate with existing systems. Implementation took 60 days, with Bob integrated into Slack, Notion, payroll, and IT ticketing systems.

The Results

HiBob enabled ecosio to streamline operations, reduce manual work, and enhance employee engagement and retention. Payroll processing time was reduced by 75%, onboarding efficiency improved by up to eight days per hire, and retention grew by 7.7%.

Bob was able to support ecosio’s rapid growth without the need to substantially increase people operations headcount. We automated almost everything possible [in Bob]. Previously lacking engagement survey and analytics functionality, Bob has given ecosio full visibility into employee sentiment.
