"As part of our long term strategy to combine the impressive capabilities of open source with a fresh, cost-effective approach to IT, Johnny Rockets immediately recognized the unique possibilities that OrangeHRM offers: A modern HRIS system which is also open source and free for life, providing extensibility, maintainability and the ability to truly recognize a significant ROI. This has afforded us the capability of integrating open source Human Resource Management software easily into our existing infrastructure, leveraging many other previous efforts to streamline our business processes, and maximize employee efficiency; all while not giving up any expected modern HRIS features."
