As HR Solutionz moved upmarket to enterprise HR, data migration became their biggest bottleneck. Discover how they switched from manual CSV cleaning to a self-serve experience that saved their engineering team 3 months of work.

HR Solutionz is the operating system for modern HR teams. Empowering organizations with intelligent HR solutions, they help mid-market and enterprise companies streamline processes, engage employees, and drive growth with their cloud-based platform.
Known for their intuitive design, mobile-first approach, and AI-powered insights, HR Solutionz has grown rapidly, joining over 1,200 companies in transforming their HR operations.
Moving upmarket brought a new set of problems. Enterprise clients didn't just have more users; they had decades of legacy data stored in fragmented systems—SAP, Oracle, dusty on-premise servers, and thousands of messy Excel files.
For a new customer to go live, they needed to import employee rosters, historical payroll data, and benefits enrollments.
The Bottleneck
The HR Solutionz Customer Success team was spending 15+ hours per client manually cleaning spreadsheets. They became "Excel janitors"—fixing date formats, splitting "Full Name" columns, and hunting for duplicate emails.
This created what the team called "Onboarding Jail." Customers would sign a contract, but couldn't use the platform for 6 weeks because their data wasn't ready.
"We were celebrating sales wins, but the CS team was dreading them. We knew every new logo meant weeks of late nights cleaning CSV files. It wasn't sustainable."Sarah Jenkins, VP of Customer Success
Alex Chen, Senior Staff Engineer, initially spun up a project to build an internal CSV uploader. The requirements seemed simple: let users drop a file, map the columns, and save it to the database.
"We estimated it was a two-sprint job," Alex recalls. "We were wrong."
Two months in, the feature was still in beta, buggy, and the engineering team was pulling resources away from core roadmap features like the new "AI Performance Reviews" tool. They needed a way out.
Alex discovered Ivandt and realized it wasn't just a UI component—it was a complete data onboarding engine.
Most companies waste months building what Ivandt delivers in minutes configuring.
