Question 1

Do we still need our HRIS if we have a performance management platform?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the two do different jobs. An HRIS is the system of record for employment data, payroll and compliance; a performance platform runs reviews, goals, feedback and development. Replacing one with the other is how companies end up with compliance gaps or with performance data nobody uses. Teamflect is built to sit alongside your HRIS, syncing employee data from it while performance management happens inside Microsoft Teams.

Question 2

What systems provide HRIS integrations alongside Microsoft 365 integration for performance data?

Accepted Answer

Teamflect provides HRIS integrations specifically designed to work alongside Microsoft 365. Employee data from HRIS platforms can be used directly within Teams-based performance processes such as reviews, goals, one-on-ones, and feedback. This connection, paired with Teamflect’s Entra ID integration, makes it possible to connect all HR & organizational data with real performance activity, without having to export and transfer data or switch between tools.

Question 3

Can employee data sync automatically from UKG?

Accepted Answer

Yes, UKG can stay the system of record while employee details such as roles, managers and organizational structure sync into your performance tool. Nothing about the HRIS workflow needs to change. Teamflect syncs from UKG and runs reviews, goals, feedback and 1-on-1s inside Microsoft Teams, so HR keeps its existing HRIS processes intact.

Question 4

Do new hires and leavers sync automatically?

Accepted Answer

Yes, joiner and leaver sync is the part of an HRIS integration that saves the most admin, because it removes the manual add-and-deactivate work every month. Confirm that deactivation is included, not just new-hire creation. Teamflect reflects HRIS changes automatically, so new employees appear with the right manager and department and departures are handled without HR maintaining a second list.

Question 5

What happens if we switch HRIS later?

Accepted Answer

Switching HRIS should mean reconnecting a source, not rebuilding your performance history, because reviews, goals and feedback live in the performance tool rather than the HRIS. Ask whether historical performance data survives a source change. Teamflect supports 200+ HRIS systems, so moving from BambooHR to Workday means connecting a different source while review history, goals and feedback stay in place.

Question 6

Which HRIS systems does Teamflect integrate with?

Accepted Answer

Teamflect integrates with 200+ HRIS systems, including Workday, UKG, ADP and BambooHR. Each connection syncs employee records, job titles, managers and departments into Teamflect, so performance reviews, goals and feedback in Microsoft Teams always reflect your current org chart. You can search the full list of supported systems on this page.

Question 7

Which employee fields sync from the HRIS, and do reporting lines come across?

Accepted Answer

The fields that matter are employee name and ID, job title, department, manager and employment status, because reporting lines determine who reviews whom. A sync covering names only leaves you maintaining the org chart by hand. Teamflect syncs job titles, reporting lines, departments and organizational structure from 200+ HRIS systems including Workday, UKG, ADP and BambooHR, so review, goal and feedback workflows always reflect current org data.

Question 8

How do I connect a performance management tool to Workday?

Accepted Answer

You connect it through an HRIS integration that treats Workday as the system of record and reads employee, manager and department data from it, rather than duplicating records. Workday keeps owning core HR data; the performance tool owns the review, goal and feedback activity. Teamflect syncs from Workday and runs performance management inside Microsoft Teams, so employees complete reviews and goals in Teams while Workday remains the source of truth.

Question 9

We use BambooHR — will a performance management tool sync with it?

Accepted Answer

Yes, BambooHR is one of the most widely supported HRIS connections, and the sync should cover employees, job titles, managers and departments. What you are avoiding is HR maintaining two employee lists. Teamflect connects to BambooHR so employee records and reporting lines flow through automatically, while performance reviews, goals, feedback and check-ins happen inside Microsoft Teams.

Question 10

Can we use single sign-on across Microsoft Teams and our HRIS?

Accepted Answer

Single sign-on comes from your identity provider rather than from the HRIS, so for Microsoft 365 organizations that means Entra ID. A performance tool that authenticates through Entra ID needs no separate credentials regardless of which HRIS you run. Teamflect authenticates through Entra ID, so employees are signed in as soon as they open it in Teams, while HRIS data flows in separately.

Question 11

How long does an HRIS integration take to set up?

Accepted Answer

For a supported connector, setup is measured in hours: authenticate, map fields, run an initial sync and check a sample of records. Custom or file-based integrations are the ones that take weeks. Teamflect connects to supported HRIS systems as part of standard onboarding, and paid plans include a Customer Success Manager who handles setup and validation with you.

Question 12

How does Teamflect compare to BambooHR and Workday for performance management?

Accepted Answer

BambooHR and Workday are HRIS platforms: systems of record for employee data, payroll and compliance, with performance features as part of a broader HR suite. Teamflect is a dedicated performance management platform built inside Microsoft Teams and Outlook. It doesn't replace your HRIS; it syncs employee data from BambooHR or Workday, so the HRIS stays the source of truth while reviews, goals, feedback and 1-on-1s happen where your people already work.
