SWIDA Innovative is a dynamically growing company specializing in express transport across Europe. With 120 employees and business activities mainly abroad, they handle even the most critical shipments with the goal of ensuring maximum customer satisfaction. Based in eastern Slovakia, their teams work in a hybrid model and consist of full-time employees, contractors, and part-timers. Keeping HR processes efficient and transparent in such an environment requires modern tools. That’s why about a year and a half ago, SWIDA Innovative decided to implement the Sloneek system.
“With more than 100 employees, managing everything in Excel became a nightmare. We lacked automation, attendance tracking was confusing, and employees had no overview of their vacations. We needed a system that would bring order to HR and serve as a single source of truth for all our data,” explains Monika Tajblik Löfflerová, HR Manager at SWIDA Innovative.
HR at SWIDA Innovative
Before implementing Sloneek, all HR processes were managed in Excel spreadsheets. As the number of employees grew beyond 100, this approach became unsustainable. The company faced limits in automation, attendance tracking, and vacation management — with no transparency for employees and no clear overview for managers. The need for a centralized system for data management, reporting, and feedback processes became urgent. After thorough market research and positive references, the leadership chose Sloneek.
Implementation Process
Implementation started in February and took about a month. The data migration went smoothly using import files. This was followed by management training and then training for all employees, which HR handled internally using Sloneek’s well-prepared support materials and knowledge base. Throughout the process, the company appreciated the quick and friendly support from the Sloneek team.
“We were worried about data migration and how our people would accept the new system. But the support from Sloneek was excellent, and thanks to the clear materials, we managed the training ourselves. Everything went unexpectedly smoothly,” recalls Monika Tajblik Löfflerová.
Results and Benefits
Today, SWIDA Innovative actively uses a wide range of modules. The most valuable are attendance and absence tracking, which serve as the primary input for payroll and generate one-click reports. Surveys and 360° feedback are also very popular, saving significant time compared to the old manual processes and eliminating errors. Sloneek has become the single source of truth, bringing transparency into the company structure, which is also useful during onboarding.
Employees welcomed the new system very positively. They appreciate its clarity, intuitive interface, and the ability to easily check their vacation and absence balances. Most of them actively use the mobile app, mainly for attendance management and survey participation.
Future Plans and Collaboration
SWIDA Innovative is planning to fully implement document and asset management modules in the near future. Their strategic goal by the end of the year is to unify the competency model and launch annual reviews entirely through Sloneek.
The company values its close collaboration with the Sloneek team and actively contributes to system improvements. They regularly provide feedback, participate in calls with developers, and even helped create the 360° feedback module.
“Collaboration with clients like SWIDA Innovative is key for us. Their active involvement and feedback — for example during the creation of the 360° module — help us develop a tool that truly meets the needs of modern HR. We really appreciate their insights and partnership,” says Milan Rataj, founder of Sloneek.
SWIDA Innovative’s Recommendation for Other Companies
According to SWIDA Innovative, investing in an HR system pays off for any company that has outgrown Excel. Key selection criteria include system localization to respect local legislation, user-friendliness, strong support, and data security. They recommend Sloneek as a compact all-in-one solution that unifies employee databases, attendance tracking, feedback, and internal communication in one place.
“For any company that is losing track in their spreadsheets, I would recommend not being afraid to invest in HRIS. The key is to choose a system with good localization and strong support. For us, Sloneek is the ideal all-in-one solution that saves time and brings structure and clarity to our work,”
concludes Monika Tajblik Löfflerová from SWIDA Innovative.
