Kronos Workforce Central® and VMware Virtualization

Kronos Workforce Central® is a comprehensive workforce management platform that provides best-in-class applications that help organizations hire the best people and manage them most effectively. With a single, integrated solution for time and attendance, scheduling, absence management, HR and payroll, hiring, and labor analytics, Kronos helps alleviate the headaches associated with managing systems that aren’t integrated.

Meet Guaranteeed Performance SLAs during Peak Loads

In today’s work environments, organizations often struggle to align an increasingly complex workforce with continuous changes to market and customer demands. To stay competitive, they need tools for evaluating and reallocating resources so they can control labor costs, minimize compliance risk, and improve workforce productivity.

By running Workforce Central on VMware virtualization solutions, Kronos supports the demanding performance and resource management requirements of its customers. In addition to rock-solid reliability and stability, VMware virtualization features resource management capabilities that help ensure Workforce Central meets guaranteed performance SLAs during peak loads such as payroll Friday.

Reap the Benefits Sooner with Rapid Provisioning

Provisioning a new application into a non-virtual production environment typically requires weeks or months. VMware virtualization allows customers to quickly provision Workforce Central instances, enabling them to reap the benefits of the solution more quickly. Additionally, VMware vMotion can be used to eliminate planned downtime for Workforce Central. With vMotion, applications running in virtual machines can be migrated live from one physical server to another without impacting application availability.
