Here’s a look at the benefits of Sage HRMS under a subscription license. ## **Subscription is the Future** Like all Sage software product lines - and indeed most modern business software on the market - the subscription  model is now the norm. As such, each year Sage continues to add new features and value to Sage HRMS subscription that aren’t available in the “traditional” perpetual license version. In addition going forward, it’s likely that nearly all future investment will be focused on Sage HRMS subscription. Rest assured that your Sage HRMS perpetual product will still be supported - but most software updates going forward will likely focus mainly on fixes and compliance. ## **Employee Self Service Enhancements** One particular area of focus, based on user feedback, will be to improve the user interface for employees. That’s why Sage will roll out a new design interface in **Employee Self Service** **(ESS)** for the **subscription version**. The improved ESS experience will help employees more easily navigate the system using a modern, intuitive and attractive design.  Additional features planned include a new ESS experience for Open Enrollment.  And for Time-Off management, the modernization of **ESS mobile access** along with additional mobile features provide a complete HRMS/ESS cloud-connected experience. ## **Other Subscription Features** In addition to interface enhancements in ESS, other features available exclusively to subscription holders include:  - Ability to default employee contribution for all employees with automatic enrollment of HRMS Savings Plans - Added capability to verify password with a view option on the HRMS and ESS logon page - Export capabilities for the results of the HRMS “employee find” to Excel (XLS) format - Expanded ESS capabilities for administrator to create and use customized security questions for logon - New Secure Query report access from HRMS home page **![Sage HRMS Subscription](https://www.equationtech.us/hs-fs/hubfs/Sage%20HRMS%20Subscription.jpg?width=796&name=Sage%20HRMS%20Subscription.jpg)** ## **Added Support & Training Benefits** In addition to exclusive features, Sage HRMS Subscription also bundles added service and training benefits including: - Access to [My Workforce Analyzer](https://www.sage.com/en-us/products/sage-hrms/my-workforce-analyzer/) - Access to Anytime Learning online courses ***and*** 50% off all other HRMS training available at [Sage University](https://sageu.csod.com/client/sageu/default.aspx) - One-on-One annual system check to ensure you’re getting the most out of your Sage HRMS investment [Contact Us](mailto:info@equationtech.us?subject=HRMS%20Subscription%20Inquiry) if you have questions about how a Sage HRMS subscription license works.   ### Related Articles ##### [Sage 300 & Windows 10 End of Life: What You Need to Know](https://www.equationtech.us/sage-accpac-blog/sage-300-windows-10-end-of-life-what-you-need-to-know) There’s been a lot of conversation lately around Windows 10 end of life and what that means for... ##### [From Start-Up to Quarter Billion – How Sage 300 Scaled Success](https://www.equationtech.us/sage-accpac-blog/from-start-up-to-quarter-billion-how-sage-300-scaled-success) We also have a [video version](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ssdM9iHt6Wz86A-VDvAER03NdXkAodg9/view?usp=sharing) of this article, where you can hear directly from one of our ERP... ##### [How to Simplify Payroll and Job Costing with Sage 300](https://www.equationtech.us/sage-accpac-blog/how-to-simplify-payroll-and-job-costing-with-sage-300) Getting payroll to play nice with your job costing system is like fitting a square peg into a round... ## Need Help Now?
