Detailed Review

rexx systems GmbH, headquartered in Hamburg with further offices in Vienna and Zurich, is a broader Talent Management, HR and applicant-management suite in which onboarding is one of several modules rather than the primary product. The vendor states it serves over 3,000 customers in more than 30 countries, which points to an established, mid-market-to-enterprise customer base rather than an early-stage vendor.

The differentiator for this category is deployment flexibility: rexx systems is available both as cloud software and fully on-premises, which is uncommon among onboarding-capable tools and matters for organisations — often in regulated industries or the public sector — whose policies exclude cloud hosting for employee data outright. Because onboarding sits inside the same suite as recruiting and talent management, new-hire data can flow directly from the applicant record into the onboarding process without a separate integration.

No pricing is published anywhere on the site; every price point requires a demo request and a sales conversation, and the onboarding module itself is not detailed or priced separately from the wider Talent Management product on the pages available. That makes rexx systems harder to evaluate quickly against tools that publish real numbers, even though its feature scope and deployment options are broader.

What rexx systems does well

  • Cloud or fully on-premises deployment — one of the few tools in this category offering that choice
  • Established vendor with a stated 3,000+ customers across 30+ countries
  • Onboarding shares a single record with recruiting and talent management, avoiding a separate integration
  • Offices across Germany, Austria and Switzerland give it a genuine DACH-region presence

Where rexx systems falls short

  • No published pricing anywhere — every quote requires a sales conversation
  • Onboarding is one module inside a larger Talent Management suite, not a focused product
  • No stated compliance certifications on the pages reviewed

Standout feature. Genuine on-premises deployment alongside cloud — the only tool in this category offering that choice.
