What is Hellora?

Does Hellora integrate with my HR system?

Yes. Hellora integrates with all major HR platforms – including Workday, Oracle, SAP, Infor, UKG, ADP, and PeopleSoft. We’ve built direct connectors with leading systems, allowing data to sync seamlessly without requiring heavy IT involvement.

What makes Hellora different from other CRM platforms?

Healthcare organizations choose Hellora for four simple reasons:

1. Built Specifically for Healthcare
Unlike generic CRMs, Hellora was designed specifically for healthcare – with deep understanding of clinical experience, licenses & credentials.

2. A Network That Keeps Your Data Fresh
Every time a candidate applies to a Hellora customer – or their public info changes – their profile in your CRM updates automatically. We update data, not share candidates.

3. A True Partner, Not a Ticket Queue
You won't get lost in a ticket queue. Every customer gets a dedicated strategy manager, regular check-ins, and responsive support - so you're always getting the most out of Hellora.

4. Transparent Pricing. No Hidden Fees.

How fast can we implement Hellora?

Most customers are up and running in as little as 6–8 weeks.

We've built ready-made integrations with all major HR systems, so your IT team doesn't need to be heavily involved. And we don't just flip a switch and walk away – your implementation includes hands-on training, best practices sessions, and strategic planning to make sure your team is confident and getting results from day one.

How much technical work is required from our IT team to implement Hellora?

Very little. Because we've already built connections with most major HR systems, there's no heavy lifting on your end.

If you have an HRIS admin, their total involvement is typically just 3–5 hours across the entire 6–8 week implementation. That's it.

Was Hellora previously called Eqo?

Yes. Hellora was previously known as Eqo.

As our platform grew beyond employee referrals into an AI-powered CRM for healthcare hiring, we updated our brand to better reflect what we've built and where we're headed.

The name is new – but our mission isn't. We're still focused on helping healthcare organizations attract and retain the frontline talent they depend on.

Can we use Hellora's employee referral solution only?

Absolutely. Our employee referral solution is available as a standalone product – you don't need to adopt the full platform to get started.

That said, many organizations begin with referrals and naturally expand into Hellora's broader CRM capabilities as their needs grow.

Transform employee referrals into your frontline hiring superpower

Hellora helps healthcare organizations increase their frontline employee referrals to attract talent and reduce turnover, while eliminating manual tracking.
