Manage my organisation's open beta and early access features

Updated

Available for the following plan: Free, Standard, Premium, Platinum
Available for the following user access levels: Account owner, Admin

Employment Hero occasionally releases new features in open beta/early access—this means the feature is functional but still being fine-tuned before it is added to the standard HR platform.

You can choose to try out these features early and help shape their development. However, it is important to understand how open beta/early access features work before enabling them.

What you need to know about open beta/early access features

  • Not yet part of the core product
    Open beta/early access features are still under development. They may be missing polish, functionality, or performance enhancements found in our standard product.

  • Optional participation
    You can opt in or out at any time. These features might not meet all your needs just yet.

  • Lower support priority
    Bugs or issues with open beta/early access features are reviewed but not treated with the same urgency as standard platform issues.

  • Features may change
    These features are in active development and may look or behave differently once officially released.

💡 We welcome your feedback. If you're using a beta feature, let us know what you think—your input helps us improve!
