Overview
Apriko is software for personnel service providers such as staff-leasing companies and recruitment agencies. It covers candidate and customer management, vacancies and placements, time recording and absences, payroll with daily wage calculation and withholding tax codes, billing and margin analysis. Further functions include credit checks through Dun & Bradstreet, job advertising on platforms such as LinkedIn and jobs.ch, SMS and email from within the software, and an open API.
The service runs in the browser as SaaS. Apriko states that it is developed and hosted in Switzerland but does not name its hosting provider. Users can log in with Microsoft, Google or Apple accounts and add optional two-factor authentication. A Swissdec connection for electronic payroll and accident reporting is listed as planned, not as available.
Apriko AG in Zurich also offers back-office services for agencies, including payroll, accounts payable and receivable, and financial statements. Prices are calculated per user licence, but amounts are not published.
