Corma connects to Zoho People HR to enable HR practices around Access Reviews and Automated User Provisoioning and Identity Access Management (IAM) as a service
Zoho People is a comprehensive, cloud-based HR management platform built for businesses of every size that want to manage their entire workforce lifecycle efficiently, affordably, and without the implementation complexity that enterprise HR systems demand. Part of the broader Zoho ecosystem — one of the world's most widely adopted business software suites, trusted by millions of organizations across every industry and geography — Zoho People brings together core HR administration, employee onboarding, leave and attendance management, performance appraisals, learning management, shift scheduling, document management, and offboarding workflows in one deeply integrated platform that reflects Zoho's longstanding philosophy of delivering powerful business software that is genuinely accessible to organizations that cannot justify the cost and complexity of dedicated enterprise solutions. Designed to serve businesses ranging from growing startups to established mid-sized organizations, Zoho People scales naturally alongside the businesses that depend on it — adding capability as organizational needs evolve without requiring platform migration or significant implementation reinvestment.
Complete provisioning from the moment a hire is confirmed in Zoho People — The instant a new employee record goes live in Zoho People, Corma reads their role, department, team, and reporting structure and provisions every corresponding application account automatically. New starters arrive to a fully prepared digital workspace — every tool their role requires ready from the moment their employment begins, consistent with Zoho's philosophy of making business operations efficient from day one.
Departure-triggered deactivation that requires no manual coordination — Corma monitors end dates and leaver records in Zoho People continuously, triggering immediate account deactivation across all connected applications the moment employment formally concludes. SCIM and API-enabled platforms are handled fully automatically; for others, targeted alerts ensure nothing is left open by the kind of informal communication gap that lean teams are most vulnerable to.
Permissions that reflect current roles within the Zoho ecosystem and beyond — Role-based access templates anchored to Zoho People data ensure every employee holds exactly the permissions their current position requires — nothing accumulated from previous roles, nothing granted informally outside the defined permission structure, nothing that contradicts the organizational clarity that Zoho People maintains at every stage of the employee lifecycle. Clean, consistent, and defensible at any compliance review.
A GDPR-aligned compliance record that builds itself automatically — Every provisioning action, permission update, and account deactivation is captured in Corma's audit trail as it occurs — permanently, automatically, and without any manual logging effort from HR or IT. Compliance evidence accumulates continuously as a natural byproduct of access management activity — organized, timestamped, and available instantly whenever a data protection review, SOC2 audit, or internal governance assessment requires it.
Real-time access visibility across Zoho People and connected applications — Corma's dashboard maps every employee's Zoho People profile against their identity provider status, active application access across every connected platform, license utilization, and recent activity — giving IT and compliance teams a unified, real-time view of the complete access landscape. Dormant accounts, permission mismatches, and HR-to-application discrepancies are visible and actionable before they escalate into incidents.
Define permission sets for every role, department, and team maintained in Zoho People and let Corma apply them automatically the moment an employee is assigned or updated. Every person in the same role receives the same access — provisioned consistently, updated automatically when Zoho People records any change, and retired cleanly when employment concludes — without manual configuration required at any stage of the process.
Corma integrates natively with Zoho People and operates alongside platforms including BambooHR, Workday, UKG, UKG Ready, TriNet HR, Sage Intacct, Sage HR, SAP SuccessFactors, Rippling, and Remote — using start dates, team assignments, role definitions, reporting structures, and learning completion records read directly from Zoho People to drive complete, accurate provisioning for every new hire without manual steps at any stage.
Every employment event, role update, department transfer, attendance reclassification, or departure recorded in Zoho People flows immediately through Corma to identity providers like Google Workspace and Microsoft Entra, propagating to all connected downstream applications within minutes — no batch windows, no overnight sync delays, no manual triggers required at any point in the access governance chain.
Access events are permanently logged as they occur, building a complete governance record that requires no manual upkeep, no retrospective reconstruction, and no preparation effort when a compliance review arrives. Generate reports on demand, schedule access reviews tied to live Zoho People data, and approach any GDPR assessment, SOC2 audit, or ISO 27001 review with documentation that is already accurate, comprehensive, and organized.
