Scaling a business not only means more customers and more revenue, it also means hiring more staff. This can come with challenges of its own, as HR is not easily scalable if done in-house.
Many fast-growing businesses try to solve this problem by outsourcing functions like payroll, or making their HR team take on more responsibilities. However, these approaches are neither cheap nor optimal for employee engagement and development.
Twine is a software agency that helps other companies design and develop their digital strategy, architecture and products, including mobile and web applications, servers, and databases.
As the business expanded rapidly, they too faced the same issues when scaling their workforce. Compliance with payroll statutory requirements was a big sticking point, as well as the challenge of running HR without a dedicated HR person.
This is where BrioHR’s simple, scalable system comes in.
Rami Aladdin, managing partner at Twine, said, “Being able to run payroll automatically and download a handful of files for batch payments to the team and statutory bodies in a couple of clicks regardless of team size is a game changer.
In addition to the convenience, we also have the confidence that those calculations are done by certified professionals, which is most often not the case when you hire someone in house,” shared Aladdin.
What’s more, BrioHR’s first-class support makes HR compliance and scaling easy for small businesses. “The support we receive along the way makes it as though we had a full-time senior HR professional on staff, for a fraction of the price,” Aladdin explains.

For rapidly scaling businesses, choosing the right HR software means being able to save time and money. Aladdin explains that the alternative is running calculations in an Excel sheet manually or hiring a person for a position the business doesn’t really need to fill.
“From a purely financial stand-point, you're saving money whether that's in the form of your precious man-hours as a business owner, or the salary of a full-time HR position,” he said.
BrioHR’s well-designed, responsive user interface makes it perfect for non-HR experts like business owners. “As tech guys, we can immediately tell that BrioHR was built well,” Aladdin said. “It's also very snappy and responsive. The UI/UX is extremely well designed and it's super intuitive and easy to use, even for someone who has no subject-matter knowledge,” elaborates Aladdin.
