Your Challenge
On your way to making Cornerstone OnDemand truly yours, have you reached a dead end?
With your companyâs needs and requirements, you need more flexibility than what all the configuration options allow you to do
When you are searching for the one central solution to not only integrate all your HR/talent processes â from Onboarding, to E-Learning, to Performance Management â but to also connect all your current and future employees, you will find Cornerstone OnDemand is a great choice for your organization.
But with all the benefits a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solution has to offer, you may soon discover the one big limitation: What you see is truly what you get.
What if you want your own look and feel, or a change here and there?
You need Custom Design & Functionality from Octily.
With some helping hands from the Cornerstone team, Octily has spent years analyzing the depths of their platform and built powerful workflows, workarounds, and a large palette of problem-solving strategies to overcome Cornerstoneâs fundamental restriction.
Our Solution
No matter your challenge —
with our simplified, straightforward, step-by-step process weâll help you solve it. On time. On budget.
We strive for efficiency and as little overhead as possible, to make sure our projects don't waste your time. We keep things simple, direct and clear. Usually you will only have a single contact person from our team guiding you through the entire project. No time will be spent on explaining things several times. Typical projects like Custom Career Sites or Custom Welcome Pages take between 8 and 12 weeks from contract signing. Smaller adjustments may just need a fraction of that time.

Watch Interview
Andrew Howes"After seeing examples of Octily's work, we recommended them to a large UK Financial Services client who needed to quickly develop a consumer grade Employee Experience through a set of focused academies in a very short time frame. The brief was to enable employees to easily get easy access to the right content for their roles and to engage them with further development. Octily accepted the challenge and helped our client to achieve a massively successful launch with significant increases in learner engagement in incredibly short timescales. The ability to give great advice and deliver beyond expectation within time and budget made the project a success at every level."
