7. In order to extract quality work from their employees the employer needs to motivate them. This
motivation is not achieved by words spoken in the organization or during a meeting. This needs something
more.
In this software all such problems have been tackled and that too in a very efficient manner. Now the
employer has all the data about his employees and he can access them any time he likes. This saves his
time and even keeps him in touch with his employees.
