Google Sheets Employee Onboarding Template

Overview

This free template helps you build a custom onboarding app, so you can skip the spreadsheets and deliver a structured, repeatable onboarding experience.

It comes with a built-in Softr Database, so you get structured, relational data designed for app workflows rather than manual spreadsheet management. If you already track onboarding tasks or resources in Google Sheets, Softr connects to it natively, so you can keep your existing data and power the same app without migrating anything.
