ST. PAUL, MN, July 14, 2010 – Avionté, a provider of staffing and recruiting technology solutions, announced a recent upgrade release to v2010.  The new release includes many key improvements, enhancements and innovative new features focused on driving efficiencies throughout staffing and recruiting organizations across the country.

“The whole premise of v2010 is enabling staffing firms to do more with less as the economy returns to full swing.  Companies that manage to maintain a lean staff while utilizing technology and automation to handle increases in business will be the first to see profits climb,” says John Long, CEO at Avionté. 

The Group and Marketing management tools are among the many new development features expected to drive high value and greater reach for Avionté clients.    These elements are designed to enable staffing firms to take a job order or candidate and turn it into a full blown marketing campaign within a matter of minutes.  The auto-match feature quickly identifies and targets candidates who are the best fit for a particular job order or companies who may be looking for particular skills.  Placing these individuals or companies into relevant groups allows for easy management and tracking of all activity taking place.  Mass emailing allows users to get the word out quickly to a targeted group utilizing email templates, mail merge and Outlook integration functionality. 

Among the list of additional features the company announced are applicant on-boarding, direct hire, document management, calendar sharing, rosters, quick place and advanced search.

Other significant features and enhancements also available in the latest staffing software release include an entirely new suite of web portals and third-party integrations.  

Avionté is releasing a fresh new suite of dynamic web portals utilizing the latest .net framework.  The portals which include employee, client, vendor, timeclock, online application and job board now offer data driven configurations that are controlled by the client through a new user-friendly administrator portal.  The admin portal provides Avionté clients the ability to access and modify configurations, views, workflow and data on the fly without any intervention from a programmer or Avionté staff.  

“We are excited to give our clients what they have been asking for, which is greater control over their web presence.  Clients now have a tool that simplifies the deployment of the modifications and configurations they wish to make such as adjusting required fields, changing applicant interview questions and the overall look of the portal sites,” states Phi Ngo, CTO at Avionté.

Additional third-party integrations are also available in v2010 allowing staffing firms to deliver business value to clients while continuing to decrease costs.  Seamless integrations to leading providers of tax credit processing, pay cards, job boards and background screenings are among those included in the new release.

Staffing Software Press Release

Avionté Staffing Software integrates paycard solution allowing staffing clients to provide employees greater payroll convenience and flexibility.

ST. PAUL, Minn., February 23, 2010 -Avionté Staffing Software, a leading provider of software for staffing and recruiting firms, announced today a new partnership and integration with Global Cash Card, the proven specialist in paycard solutions.  Headquartered in Irvine, California, Global Cash Card is a wholly owned subsidiary of World Processing, LTD, and has been specializing in customized paycard solutions since 2003.

Avionté clients will now have a seamless solution that enables them to pay employees using a secure and simple paycard solution.  The entire process is administered within the Avionté System allowing for two-way, instant data transfer between Global Cash Card and Avionté.  This eliminates any need to access another system or manually feed information back and forth, resulting in greater efficiency and costs saving for staffing firms.  All of the banking and paycard information is setup within Avionté, allowing employees to have payroll loaded directly onto their personal paycard at any point in time.

LaborWorks is the first of many Avionté Staffing Software clients to implement the Global Cash Card solution. ”The Global Cash Card integration with Avionté went very smoothly; even the small glitches that we’ve encountered have been handled quickly and professionally by both Avionté and Global Cash Card. In comparison to our prior card and software system, working with Global Cash Card and Avionté is a vast improvement both in terms of system improvement and the overall benefit a paycard should provide. We are so pleased with the process that we are transitioning all of our pay process to the Global Cash Card,” said Al Bacon, CFO of LaborWorks Industrial Staffing.

The integration provides staffing firms a way to service their employees more effectively by providing them the convenience of instant access to their money.  In addition, employees will save money by eliminating check cashing and overdraft fees, be able to use their card for online purchases and enjoy the security that goes with carrying a card, rather than cash.

John Long, CEO of Avionté remarked, “Partnering with Global Cash Card was yet another way we could offer our clients a true paperless solution, reducing both expenses and administrative time.   By eliminating the need for paper checks and providing an attractive solution for employees who may not have or simply can’t manage a bank account, we were able to create a win for everyone involved.”

Several clients have gone live with the TaxBreak integration this week.  These clients are expected to qualify for nearly a million in tax credits by utilizing the Avionte-TaxBreak Integration.  Each year staffing firms forfeit millions of dollars by not taking advantage of the federal and state tax credits available to them. Many of these credits go unclaimed because the process seems too complex and time-consuming. Avionte and TaxBreak have made that process simple. The Tax Break Integration allows clients to automate the process of identifying and processing tax credit opportunities.   Directly from Avionte Staffing Software, Clients can easily screen employees for eligibility and electronically submit all payroll and required data to process the tax credits.
