Frequently asked questions
An employee directory is a centralized hub where employees can look up colleagues’ contact details, roles, departments, and other key information. It helps teams stay connected, especially in larger or distributed organizations.
An employee directory is used to give staff one reliable place to find and connect with coworkers. Instead of searching across emails or messaging apps, teams can quickly look up names, roles, or departments.
Businesses use employee directories to streamline onboarding, improve cross-team collaboration, and make it easier to find the right person for a task. With Softr, you can build a custom employee directory in hours and connect it to the tools you already use.
A custom employee directory makes it easier for employees to find the information they need about coworkers.
The main benefits are:
- Convenience for employees: Anyone can quickly look up contact details, team assignments, or reporting structures.
- Time savings for teams: Less time spent searching for emails or asking around for basic details.
- Transparency: A clear view of who’s on which team and how the organization is structured.
- Scalability: As your company grows, a directory ensures new hires can easily get to know the team and be added during onboarding.
- Professional look: A branded directory reinforces company culture and employee trust.
With Softr, you also get the benefit of building and customizing your directory quickly—and maintaining it easily—without developers.
A good employee directory should make it easy for staff to find colleagues and keep information up to date. The most important features include:
- Secure logins and permissions so employees only see information that’s relevant for them.
- Search and filters to quickly find coworkers by name, role, or department.
- Profiles with key details that display job titles, contact info, skills, or manager relationships.
- Forms that make it easy for new employees to add their info to the directory.
- User groups and teams to organize employees into departments or project groups.
- Customization so that the directory matches your company identity and includes the fields/details you want.
- Integrations and data flexibility to connect to tools you already use.
- AI assistance to let employees query information directly, generate summaries (e.g. “Show me all engineers in New York”), or get instant answers without manual searching.
With these features, an employee directory becomes a simple, powerful tool for improving visibility and collaboration, and can easily be expanded on with vacation trackers, resource libraries, and more.
You can build a no-code employee directory in Softr in a few simple steps:
- Connect your data: Start by choosing where your employee information will live. With Softr, you can build on top of tools you already use, such as Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, SQL, or Hubspot. If you don’t have a system in place, you can also create and manage data directly in Softr Databases. This flexibility means you don’t need to switch systems — the directory adapts to your workflow.
- Set up users and permissions: Define roles like employees and admins, add secure logins, and control who can see or edit information. Softr makes this easy with built-in authentication and role-based access.
- Build your pages: Add profile cards, team directories, or org charts with drag-and-drop blocks.
- Customize design and branding: White label your directory by applying your logo, brand colors, and layouts. A professional, branded look improves trust and reinforces your company identity.
- Add workflows and automations: Automate routine updates and fine-tune permissions. For instance, you can trigger notifications when new employees are added or remind employees to update their profiles if a new field is added.
- Publish and iterate: Launch your directory in hours, then update or expand it as your team grows.
With Softr, you can do all this without coding, using pre-built templates or an AI app builder to get started even faster.
With Softr, you can build an employee directory on top of the tools you already use, so you don’t need to move your data. Softr supports 15+ native integrations, including Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, HubSpot, and SQL databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Supabase. You can also connect any other tool using the REST API connector.
If you don’t have a system in place, Softr includes its own Softr Databases, where you can design and manage your data structure directly. This means you can choose whether to keep data where it already lives or build everything inside Softr.
No matter the source, Softr lets you sync data in real time, control permissions, and decide what employees can view or edit from the directory. That flexibility makes it easy to centralize information and keep your directory up to date without manual work.
Yes. With Softr, you can add a built-in AI assistant to your employee directory without extra setup. Instead of coding prompts or configuring separate tools, the assistant works directly with the data inside your directory.
For example, employees can ask: “Who’s on the marketing team?” or “Show me all designers in London.” HR can ask: “Summarize all new hires this quarter” or “Which team members don’t have updated profiles?”
The AI assistant only reads the data users already have access to, so employees get instant answers without ever seeing information outside their permissions.
Most employee directory tools are either too basic (a simple static list) or too rigid (hard to customize as you scale or automate how employees are added). Softr gives you both flexibility and speed.
- No coding required: Drag-and-drop blocks, pre-built templates, and secure login options mean you can launch in hours, not weeks.
- Data flexibility: Connect existing data sources (Airtable, Notion, SQL, Google Sheets, HubSpot, Clickup, BigQuery) or manage your employee data directly in Softr Databases.
- Custom branding: Match the look and feel of your company with full design control.
- Granular permissions: Control what each employee sees or can do, with roles like employee, HR, or admin.
- Built-in AI assistant: Softr includes Ask AI, so employees and HR teams can get insights directly inside the directory.
This mix of speed and flexibility makes Softr a great option for companies that need a professional employee directory that's easy to maintain—without having to rely on developers.
