“We have to do more with less—that’s the reality of running a nonprofit today.”

For many nonprofit organizations, that statement isn’t just a challenge—it’s a daily truth. Limited budgets, lean HR teams, and growing demands for transparency and efficiency often leave HR departments overburdened and under-resourced. Yet, these organizations still need to manage staff time, handle leave requests, track attendance, and respond to employee questions—just like any for-profit company.

That’s where CloudApper’s hrPad comes in. It’s a cost-effective employee self-service kiosk designed specifically for organizations using UKG/Kronos solutions. And it offers nonprofits a practical way to streamline HR operations without breaking the bank.

Why Nonprofits Need Smarter HR Tools

According to a 2024 report by the National Council of Nonprofits, over 68% of nonprofits reported workforce shortages affecting their ability to deliver services. One of the leading causes? Administrative overhead. HR teams are spending too much time on repetitive tasks—like answering basic questions or managing paper-based time records—instead of focusing on strategic initiatives or community impact.

Nonprofits don’t need more software—they need smarter tools that work with what they already use. That’s where CloudApper hrPad offers immediate value. It turns any iPad, Android tablet, or Windows device into a fully functional, UKG-integrated HR kiosk, allowing employees to access timekeeping and HR services anytime, without needing a dedicated HR staff member on site.

Affordable and Efficient: A Kiosk That Pays for Itself

Traditional time clocks and self-service kiosks are expensive—often costing thousands per unit. But CloudApper hrPad leverages the devices you already have, reducing implementation costs by up to 75%. That makes it an ideal solution for nonprofits trying to maximize every dollar.

Key Benefits for Nonprofits:

  • Accurate Time Tracking: Prevents time theft with secure options like face ID or QR code check-ins.
  • Automated PTO & Leave Requests: Empowers staff to request time off directly, with automatic syncing to UKG.
  • HR Assistance Around the Clock: AI-powered responses to common HR queries reduce the load on your HR team.
  • Employee Feedback & Surveys: Capture morale, satisfaction, or check-in data directly through the kiosk.
  • Compliance Made Simple: Automatically tracks and records labor data to stay aligned with regulations and grant requirements.

Real-Time Integration With UKG/Kronos

One of the major challenges nonprofits face is software compatibility. Many tools claim to offer integration but fall short in practice. CloudApper hrPad was built specifically to work with UKG solutions, including:

  • UKG Ready
  • UKG Pro Workforce Management
  • UKG HR Service Delivery
  • UKG Central

This real-time sync ensures that all time records, leave balances, and employee data are always up to date—removing the guesswork and minimizing manual entry.

Supporting Frontline and Remote Teams Alike

Many nonprofit employees work outside a traditional office—at shelters, clinics, community centers, or in the field. hrPad meets them where they are by providing mobile-ready, cloud-connected HR access on any device. Whether it’s clocking in at a food distribution site or submitting a PTO request between client visits, employees get seamless access to the HR services they need.

Protect Budgets, Improve Service

For nonprofits, success is often measured in impact, not profit. But to create impact, you need an engaged, supported workforce—and that starts with giving your employees tools that respect their time and improve their experience.

CloudApper hrPad is not a luxury. It’s a practical, scalable, and affordable HR solution that gives nonprofit HR teams the tools to stay organized, compliant, and responsive—without stretching their resources thin.

Final Thoughts

Nonprofits shouldn’t have to choose between operational efficiency and affordability. With CloudApper hrPad, they don’t have to. It’s an affordable, UKG-compatible HR kiosk that helps organizations do more with less—and that’s exactly what today’s nonprofits need.
