Case Study: SHELTER Inc. achieves 60–70% faster onboarding and paperless processes with HR Cloud's Onboard

Less Time Onboarding Frees Employees to Spend More Time on the Mission

SHELTER Inc., a nonprofit charity that rehabs lives and prevents homelessness, faced a scaling problem after a hiring initiative nearly doubled its workforce: a manual, paper-based onboarding process that took too long and couldn’t keep pace. After an ADP recommendation, SHELTER Inc. chose HR Cloud’s Onboard solution to automate and streamline onboarding.

HR Cloud’s Onboard digitized all paperwork (W-4s, I-9s, etc.), eliminated three filing cabinets, and cut onboarding time from nearly five hours to an hour or less—an estimated 60–70% reduction—producing a positive ROI, more satisfied new hires, and freeing HR to spend time on mission-critical tasks so staff can start helping clients sooner.
