Why teams switch
Four things your HR team gets back
Not a feature list. The operational and financial outcomes your business case has to stand on.
HR owns it, not IT
Change a workflow, a field, an SLA or a report yourself, the same day. No IT ticket, no developer, no professional services line item.
HR configures it
Fastest return in the category

8 months vs 14 month average
Employees stop asking
Self service, instant knowledge search and AI assistance absorb routine inquiry volume before it ever reaches a person.
Deflect tier 1 at source
Built for your HCM
Certified Workday, SAP SuccessFactors and Dayforce integration puts live worker data inside the case, so nobody tabs between systems.
Certified connectors
Employee relations that holds up
Restricted visibility, structured investigation records and an audit trail where hiding a note changes its visibility, not its presence.
Defensible casework
HR Case Management
Every inquiry tracked, routed and resolved on record
Shared inboxes and spreadsheet trackers do not survive an audit and do not scale past a few hundred employees. Dovetail gives every question an owner, a clock and a paper trail.
- Email to case with automatic reply threading, so correspondence documents itself
- SLA clocks and escalation rules that surface risk before it becomes a complaint
- Full audit timeline on every case, built for GDPR and internal investigation
- Case history per employee, visible the moment they get in touch
Employee Portal & Knowledge
Answer the question once. Never answer it again.
Most inbound HR volume is a small set of questions asked repeatedly. Publish the answer once and let employees find it themselves, in the tools they already have open.
- Instant knowledge search across policies, guides, FAQs and video
- HR Copilot answers in Microsoft Teams and Slack, where employees already are
- Case tracking so employees stop chasing HR for a status update
- Article ratings that tell you which answers are actually working
Employee Relations
The cases that end up in front of a lawyer
Grievances, disciplinary matters, investigations and accommodations carry confidentiality and documentation obligations that general HR casework does not. Dovetail handles them as a distinct discipline, not a case type in someone else's ticketing tool.
- Case level restricted visibility, separate from general HR case management
- Hiding a note changes its visibility, not its presence in the audit record
- Structured capture across grievance, disciplinary, investigation and accommodation
- Outcome and cycle time reporting, so patterns surface before they become risk

The buying committee
Answers for everyone who has to sign off
HR service delivery deals are not won in HR. They are lost in security review and procurement.
HR Leader
Will this reduce my team's workload, and can I prove it upward?
Capacity metrics, service level reporting and exec dashboards that stand up in a board pack.
IT
What am I on the hook to build and maintain?
SSO, standard integration model, no platform team, no custom development to go live.
InfoSec
Where does employee data sit and who can touch it?
Certifications, data residency, sub-processor list, permission model and GDPR tooling.
Procurement
What does this cost across three years?
Clear commercial model, what drives cost, and how renewal works.
Finance
When does this pay back?
8 month payback per G2, plus an assessment that models it against your own headcount.
We wanted control over HR data, metrics on our activity, a tool to track cases, and a knowledge base so people stopped getting a different answer every time they contacted a different HR representative. Dovetail were not only a better fit for our needs, they created better value.
