Hobbii – a growing company

Hobbii is a one-stop shop for all yarn lovers in Denmark. Since it started in 2015, the company has achieved strong growth in both development and sales. Hobbii has big ambitions for the future, so it's important to be at the forefront of technology, innovation and automation. Given Hobbii's preferences, Zenegy's payroll system has been an obvious choice. Zenegy's solutions, features and automated processes are a great help to the company in its busy everyday.

A focus on development

“We're not a traditional company. We want to automate and systematise as many tasks as possible, as we're a company in constant growth. That Zenegy makes our everyday work easier and faster – that's absolutely crucial.”

So says Signe Gilstrup, Finance Manager at Hobbii. Hobbii is on an exciting journey in the Danish and global markets today, and now has more than 350 employees. Even though the company is growing, it's important to the management to keep the team spirit and the culture it has had from the beginning. With Zenegy, Hobbii can cut the time spent on doing payroll for its many employees and focus instead on the more business-oriented, value-adding tasks.

Big time savings and an open API

“I'm always critical when I invest in a new project. That applies especially to my time, and to whether the project can keep up with Hobbii's growth, and here Zenegy has been a good match.”

So says Signe, who also says that she is spared a lot of manual typing and can now do payroll for all Hobbii's employees in just one day. There's no mistaking the time saving, as the same exercise in the old payroll system could take up to a week.

Zenegy's new and modern API system gives Hobbii countless integration options. Day to day, they use the time registration and planning system Planday, where Zenegy eliminates errors and manual entries through automation. This means Signe can work across the two systems at once – and save time that way.

An honest payroll system

For Hobbii, it's important to have an honest payroll system that offers quick and competent support all the way through. With Zenegy, Hobbii gets a payroll system that keeps its promises and always wants to renew itself.

“It's important that we feel we're customers who are listened to. At Zenegy, we're looked after, and our wishes and challenges are always taken seriously.”

Easy to do payroll

When Hobbii switched to Zenegy, Signe was completely new to the company's payroll process. So it was important that the new payroll system was both user-friendly and easy to find your way around.

“I've had an enormous amount of help, and not least quick and competent answers from Zenegy's support team. It has also been easy to change payroll system, as Zenegy helped with our onboarding – so it all worked out well.”

“That Zenegy makes our everyday work easier and faster – that's absolutely crucial.”
