Accero (formerly Cyborg Systems) delivers high-performance, best-fit solutions that streamline HR and payroll processes for organizations of all sizes, in major industries in the US, Canada, and the UK. Innovative and customer-driven, Accero can help transform HR organizations into strategic business units that model results-driven productivity. The Accero story began in 1974, a time when 'word processors' still looked liked old typewriters. As one of the first significant payroll and HR processing software companies, Accero is proud of its long history and numerous contributions to the business community. Today, the company is a leading Human Capital Management (HCM) solutions provider that delivers a robust, highly-flexible suite of human resources management and payroll software and services to blue chip organizations with 2500 or more employees in the US, Canada and the United Kingdom. It offers options for traditional licensing or SaaS-based subscription service. The company is profitable, cash-flow positive and fully funded - a company upon which many Fortune 500 customers rely. It is completely focused on providing its clients with superior HCM domain expertise. And unlike competitive solutions from, say, Oracle and SAP, its solutions are affordable and delivered on-time, in a short time, the first time. That's the Accero tradition.
