Case Study: Ellation achieves rapid international onboarding of 115 hires and automated HR workflows with Sapling

Ellation - Customer Case Study

Ellation, a 290‑employee video platform with teams in San Francisco, Moldova, Japan and remote, had just completed an international acquisition and needed to quickly onboard 115 employees while maintaining compliance and building a cohesive culture. To tackle administrative complexity and preserve their employer brand, Ellation engaged Sapling and used Sapling’s company‑branded onboarding portal, workflows, and task management capabilities.

Sapling implemented a branded onboarding portal, automated onboarding documents and workflows, provided a central People Ops dashboard, and synced new hire data into Ellation’s systems of record (including Paylocity, with integrations to Greenhouse and JIRA). As a result, Sapling helped Ellation onboard 30% of the company in new hires in a matter of weeks, ensured compliance, standardized the new‑hire experience, and delivered greater visibility and consistency across HR processes.
