Employee Directory Software That Keeps Your Team's Information Accurate and Accessible
Business in a Box gives you a live, searchable employee directory with org chart, role information, contact details, and department structure — all connected to your HR module and automatically kept up to date.
The Problem
Your Employee Directory Is a Spreadsheet No One Trusts
Most growing businesses manage employee information in a spreadsheet, a shared doc, or an outdated HR system that nobody keeps current. When someone needs to find who owns a role, who reports to whom, or how to reach a colleague in another department, they either ask someone or give up. The information exists somewhere — it's just never where you need it.
Business in a Box gives you a live employee directory that updates automatically as your team changes. Search by name, role, department, or skill. View the org chart. See who reports to whom. Everything in one place, always accurate, and connected to HR records that actually exist.
Live Employee Directory
A Directory That Knows Your Team As Well As You Do
Business in a Box maintains a live employee directory that's always current, fully searchable, and connected to your HR records — so your team always has the information they need to work together effectively.
Smart Search
Search by Name, Role, Department, or Skill
Find any employee in seconds. Search by name, job title, department, or area of expertise — and get to the right person without asking anyone.
Org Chart
Visual Org Chart That Updates Automatically
See your full company structure in a visual org chart. When roles change or people are hired, the chart updates automatically — no manual maintenance.
Employee Profiles
Rich Profiles With Role, Contact & Skills
Every employee has a profile with their role, contact information, department, manager, start date, and skills — all in one place and always current.
Department View
Browse by Department or Team
View the directory by department to see who's on each team, what their roles are, and how the department is structured — perfect for new hires and cross-team collaboration.
Live Updates
Auto-Updated When HR Records Change
When an employee is hired, promoted, or offboarded in the HR module, the directory updates automatically. No dual entry, no stale data.
Access Control
Control What's Visible to Whom
Set visibility rules for sensitive employee information. Decide what's visible company-wide, what's visible to managers, and what stays private.
