Frontier Software: flexible and functional*

Conceived in Melbourne in 1983, Frontier Software’s flagship product, ‘chris’ (Complete Human Resource Information System), is the result of almost three decades of investment in technologies and people sharply focused on the provision of world class, integrated HR and Payroll Management software solutions.

Today, chris is the cornerstone of HR and Payroll departments worldwide as it continues to evolve to meet 21st century user criteria.

chris21 is an internationally proven solution, heralding unsurpassed levels of modularity, flexibility and functionality to meet the demanding requirements of organisations from all walks of industry, commerce and government.

In addition to the core chris21 software product, Frontier Software also delivers employee and manager self service, online recruitment, performance management and learning and development solutions.

More Australian Local Governments use chris²¹ for their HR management information system (HRMIS) solutions than any other provider.  chris²¹ integrates with enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems commonly selected by councils and is far superior to using the small HR or Payroll options added to these.

Frontier Software offers Local Government a great value for money solution over time. All configuration and customisation is supported in future releases as the product is continually enhanced.  This removes the requirement to change systems every few years as the legacy systems age. 

Frontier Software is a one stop shop, providing all services related to the product in the one place, including account management, sales, helpdesk, consulting and training. 

Frontier Software clients stay with Frontier Software for the long term.
