Self-Service Feature Comparison

Positive employee experiences are increasingly important in today’s business world. Employees are the heart and soul of your company. What they expect from you continues to evolve, so the self-service technology they use must adapt to meet their shifting needs too.

Eventually, the Adaptive Employee Experience (AEE) will fully replace Employee Self-Service Classic View on all devices. New features will be added to AEE throughout 2023 and 2024 until your employees can do everything they need from the user-friendly, modern platform.

{Needs to be updated with mobile app}

Here’s a comparison of self-service features for employees across all platforms as of March 2024:
