Get to know your people by automating the entire collection of personnel data. Create a rich skills people finder, with role-based content targeting, and effective process automation.

How it works

LiveTiles’ Directory brings your company active directory to life by ensuring profile information is always complete and up-to-date.

It improves IT service delivery, employee engagement, unlocks opportunities for greater personalization, and makes people information readily available to employees in employee profiles, the people and expertise directory, and an organizational diagram.

Monitor

The LiveTiles Directory assistant continuously monitors directories for inconsistent, invalid, aged, and missing profile information.

Report

Reports are generated to admins, and users are contacted, either via personalized email workflow requests or a chatbot conversation, to update missing or incorrect profile information.

The collected user information is written back to directories. For online deployments, as Azure is updated, other Microsoft 365 experiences such as SharePoint, Delve, Teams, and Exchange Online/Outlook are updated through the standard Microsoft synchronization process.

Connecting HR systems to the active Directory

Connectors for HR systems allow profile data to flow to AD, ADP and Microsoft 365 without the user needing to update their data in multiple places.

Always up-to-date profile information

Accurate employee information

Users can find always accurate information about people through LiveTiles’ three people directory web parts: the Profile, the Live Directory, and the Organizational chart. The web parts can be surfaced everywhere either as web parts or via iFrames.

People Directory configuration

As an admin, you configure the required profile information, fields, drop-downs, and data validation to ensure the employee information in your organization is consistent.

View people Directory trends

You can follow reports on users’ profile information and view trends in how well data is filled in for your people.

Easy to use integration framework

Through our Integration Framework, you can connect all systems where employee information lives, including your HRIS. Ensuring people information is synced and updated across.

It empowers the employees to take control of their profile. Essentially, crowdsourcing the upkeep of personal data, and removing the mundane burden from IT, but still with boundaries and controls.

Keep people data up-to-date in LiveTiles Directory

Our software continuously monitors your environment to ensure consistency and compliance as your organization changes.

Fight stale profile data

The LiveTiles Employee Directory Assistant understands what’s missing or incorrect and automatically starts a conversation with employees to collect and validate their information. When a user updates their information an employee directory assistant guides through the process. For example, when users update their photo, it will ensure there is only one face in the photo and block the ability to upload a cartoon, a pet, or other inappropriate content.

Remind users to fill out profile information

From the employee directory web part users will be visually reminded of how complete their profile information is and can click through to update it if required.

Consistent information

Administrators configure required fields, drop-downs, and data validation to ensure the employee information in your organization is consistent.

Approval flows

Enforce approvals before updates get pushed to Microsoft 365 for profile information that require more governance.

Differentiate profile information based on user groups

Administrators can set up different profile information for different collections of users. For instance, you can configure that all salespeople in the organization must specify their sales region.

Reach users in LiveTiles Directory with emails and bot conversations

Prompt users to update profile information with customized emails or bot conversations

When the LiveTiles profile directory assistant picks up profile data that needs to be updated users are contacted via email or a bot to either fill in information or approve/reject changes suggested by the directory assistant.

Completely tailor the profile update process

Create branded profile pages. Customize the profile update emails being sent and bot conversations being initiated. Set the tone of voice, add logos, and adjust their frequency.

Choose to prompt users by email or chatbot alone.

Let users personalize the email workflow request.

This is beneficial due to each person in the Directory having different needs, based on their day-to-day work schedules and tasks they need to complete.

Find people

Save time by using the active directory to find people in different departments, via their roles.

LiveTiles Directory and data

Employee Profile

Update missing profile data straight from the page the web part is surfaced at. Allow users to navigate to their full profile page experience from their profile card.

Define unique profile data
