Employee database software is a secure system where HR teams, managers, and staff can log in to access and manage employee information—like contact details, job titles, documents, and performance records. It centralizes all your employee data, so you don’t have to rely on spreadsheets or scattered files. This makes it easier to stay organized and ensure everyone has access to up-to-date information when they need it.
Softr makes it easy to build employee database software that matches your organization’s needs. You can connect your existing data—like records from Airtable, Notion, or SQL—and set up a portal where HR or managers can view employee profiles, update records, and share documents, all in one place.
There’s no coding required. You can start with a template or create your own setup, customize the layout, manage permissions for different roles, and brand the software to reflect your company. It’s fast to launch, simple to maintain, and flexible enough to grow as your HR needs evolve.
You can add a variety of features to your employee database software, depending on what your HR processes look like. Some popular options include:
\- User logins – so HR staff, managers, or employees can access relevant information
\- Employee profiles – to store job history, contact info, and personal details
\- Document management – for uploading and sharing contracts, policies, or certifications
\- Forms – for onboarding, leave requests, or performance reviews
\- Search and filters – to quickly find employees or documents
\- Tables, lists, and detail views – to display employee records or department overviews
\- Role-based permissions – so users only see the data they’re supposed to
\- Comments or updates – to track changes or leave notes on employee files
\- Charts – to visualize headcount, turnover, or demographics
\- Calendar view – for tracking important dates like anniversaries or review cycles
Everything is built with Softr’s drag-and-drop blocks, so you won’t need any coding experience. If your requirements change, it’s easy to update your software later.
No coding is needed. You can build your employee database software entirely using Softr’s visual editor. Everything from the layout to user permissions can be set up and customized without writing a single line of code.
Yes. You can manage multiple teams or departments within a single employee database software instance. Each user will only see the information and records relevant to their assigned role or department, based on their login and permissions. This is especially useful for HR teams, managers, or companies overseeing various divisions or business units.
Softr supports a variety of data sources for your employee database. You can connect to Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, Coda, monday.com, HubSpot, Clickup, Xano, Supabase, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, MariaDB, BigQuery, and more. You can also bring in data from other HR platforms or databases using the REST API.
You’re not limited to just one source. You can integrate multiple data sources into your employee database and display them together—so your HR dashboard, for example, can combine data from both Airtable and Google Sheets at once. Most sources support real-time, two-way sync, so any changes in your employee database or connected source stay in sync automatically.
Yes, Softr gives you full control over how users interact with your employee database software. You can customize the layout, navigation, and content to fit your company’s processes and branding. Each page or block can be shown or hidden based on who’s logged in, so each employee, manager, or HR team member sees only what’s relevant to them.
You can also set up different user roles, such as employee, manager, or administrator—and define exactly what each role can view or manage. For example, employees can see only their own records, while HR or admins can access all employee profiles. You can also create personalized views by filtering data based on the logged-in user.
This customization is especially useful for organizations with multiple departments or varying access levels, helping to keep the experience secure and tailored to every user.
Yes, you can. You don’t need to have your employee data stored elsewhere to start building your employee database with Softr. If you’re starting from scratch, you can use Softr Databases, which is built into the platform and integrates seamlessly with your employee management software.
If you already have employee data in tools like Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, Coda, monday.com, Supabase, or SQL, you can connect those too. You can also use the REST API connector to bring in data from other HR systems. Either way, you have complete control over how your employee data is structured and displayed in your database.
Yes, you can fully white-label your employee database software in Softr. You can use your own logo, brand colors, fonts, and custom domain to make the software feel like a natural extension of your organization. You can also remove all Softr branding, so your colleagues and users only see your company’s identity throughout the experience.
Yes, you can. Softr gives you a lot of flexibility to control both the design and layout of your employee database software. You can adjust colors, fonts, spacing, and page structure to match your organization’s branding. You can also decide how each page is laid out, choose which blocks display employee data, and set what different types of users see when they log in.
To display your HR data, you can use a variety of blocks:
\- Table blocks – to show structured data like employee lists, departments, or leave records
\- List or Card blocks – to highlight employee profiles, team members, or skills
\- Detail View – to display a single employee’s record or profile
\- Forms – for adding or updating employee data
\- Charts – to show workforce metrics or statistics
\- Calendar blocks – to display important dates like onboarding or anniversaries
If your content or design needs change later, it’s easy to go back and make updates right in the visual builder.
Softr is built with security in mind. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest, and your employee database software is hosted on secure, reliable infrastructure. Softr gives you full control over who can access and manage employee records. You can set up role-based permissions, manage users directly within your data source, set visibility rules, and apply global restrictions to protect sensitive employee information across your software.
For apps connected to external data sources like Airtable, Notion, or SQL, Softr doesn’t store your HR data—it just displays it in real time according to your access settings. You’re always in control of your data and who can view or edit it.
Softr also follows industry best practices for authentication, access control, and platform monitoring to help keep your employee information safe.
You can get started for free. Softr’s Free plan lets you publish one app with up to 10 app users and 2 user groups, and includes support for all standard data sources like Softr Databases, Airtable, Google Sheets, and more.

Yes. Softr supports a wide range of integrations so you can connect your employee database software to the rest of your tech stack. You can sync with tools like Slack for notifications, automate HR tasks using Zapier, Make, and N8N, and even integrate with your payroll or benefits systems. Softr also supports REST API and webhooks for more advanced workflows.
Whether you need to send employee data to another system, trigger automations based on HR actions, or pull in information from other tools, you can build it right into your employee database software—no coding required.
