Horilla

Horilla is a free and open source HRMS that brings core HR workflows into one system. It covers recruitment, onboarding, employee management, attendance, leave, payroll, performance, offboarding, asset management, and a helpdesk module.

It runs on Python and Django with a PostgreSQL database. Installation is supported on Ubuntu, Windows, and macOS, and an official Docker image is published on Docker Hub. On first launch you initialize the database with a super admin, company, department, and job position, or load demo data instead.

Horilla is maintained by Cybrosys Technologies. It is self-hosted on infrastructure you control rather than offered as a hosted-only service, which suits teams that want to keep HR and payroll data in house.
