GRAM

Cloud HR suite: attendance, scheduling, payroll

Overview

Gramn provides cloud-based HR software under the Jobcan brand to streamline HR tasks. Its main product, Jobcan Attendance Management, tracks employee time across multiple clock-in methods (PC, phone, IC cards, biometric devices) with real-time data on a central dashboard, automates work-hour calculations and overtime, and sends alerts to avoid missed clock-ins. Jobcan Shift Management lets employees digitally submit shift preferences, after which the system generates optimized schedules based on requests and staffing needs. Additional modules include Leave Management and Payroll, which integrates attendance data to simplify payroll processing. Offered on a subscription basis, customers pick and combine the functions they need. The system is multi-language, supports integration with external payroll software, and targets a wide range of industries and company sizes.
