IT systems built for organizations and IT systems built for individuals serve different purposes and have different characteristics tailored to their respective users. HIRA is a system built for individuals, while systems such as SAP Successfactor and peopleSoft are built for organizations. Here is a comparison of these two types of IT systems:
IT systems for organizations:
Scale and complexity: IT systems for organizations tend to be more complex and extensive compared to those for individuals. They often involve multiple interconnected components, databases and specialized software to support various business functions.
Customization: These systems are usually customized to meet the specific needs of the organization. They may require extensive configuration, integration with existing systems and compliance with industry regulations.
Collaboration: Collaboration and teamwork are fundamental aspects of organizational IT systems. They facilitate communication, data sharing and project management between employees, departments and stakeholders.
Security: Security is a top priority for organizational IT systems due to the sensitive data they handle. This includes implementing access controls, encryption and intrusion detection systems to protect against cyber threats.
Scalability: These systems must be scalable to accommodate the growth of the organization. They should handle increasing amounts of data, users and transactions without significant performance degradation.
Maintenance and support: Organizations typically invest in ongoing maintenance and support for their IT systems to ensure they remain up-to-date, efficient and secure.
Cost: Building and maintaining organizational IT systems can be expensive, requiring significant budgets for development, infrastructure and ongoing operations.
IT systems for individuals:
Simplicity: IT systems for individuals are designed to be user-friendly and easy to use. They prioritize simplicity and a seamless user experience. HIRA has been developed in collaboration with the users, the individuals, and places great emphasis on easy navigation, little use of foreign words and creating a user-friendliness that is close to private solutions found in solutions such as Facebook, Instagram etc.
Personalization: These systems often allow for personalization and customization to accommodate individual preferences and needs. Examples include personal email accounts and social media profiles. HIRA goes so far as to give full autonomy to the individuals. They own their own data, manage it, share it and withdraw it themselves. They can choose to share everything or only individual elements for the best purpose.
Limited scope: Individual IT systems are not designed to handle large operations or extensive collaboration. They are usually meant for personal tasks and communication. HIRA only covers 8 tasks; test employees, test the business, simulate, share, evaluate and report data within limited datasets.
Privacy: While privacy is important to both types of systems, individual IT systems focus on protecting the privacy of the user's personal information and data. HIRA provides 100% consumer protection or privacy in that they manage and develop data themselves, share data only for the best purposes or refuse to give up data. Data retained by the system cannot identify individuals. This data helps to develop the system and increase insight into tacit knowledge.
Cost: Many individual IT systems are available for free or at a low cost, making them accessible to a wide range of users. HIRA costs very little compared to the organizational systems. Configuration and integration costs are minimal and the business model is based on pay per use.
Support: Support for individual IT systems may be more limited compared to organizational systems. Users often rely on online resources and forums for help. HIRA provides customer service using a chatbot that is available 24/7. Questions that cannot be answered by the chatbot are answered by humans within 24 hours.
Interconnection: Individual IT systems are often interconnected with other individual systems, enabling communication and data sharing between users. Examples include e-mail communication and file sharing platforms. HIRA can connect to all types of systems including organizational systems. For example, SAP has so-called container solutions for "dumping" data from individual-based systems.
In summary, IT systems for organizations and individuals have different goals, complexities and priorities. Organizational systems are designed to support business processes, security and scalability, while individual systems prioritize simplicity, personalization and ease of use. Understanding these differences is crucial when designing, implementing or using IT systems in different contexts.
