  • Mandatory two-factor for administration
  • Vendor based in Zug

At a glance

One sign-in One home screen Every tool

As in a well-organised office, every person has a key ring with exactly the keys they need: The licence determines which rooms exist, the role determines which doors a person may open.

  1. 01

    Everything in one place

    Working time, holidays, expenses, collaboration and knowledge in one interface. No more switching back and forth between programs.

  2. 02

    Every person sees only what they need

    Roles and permissions control access, checked on the server and not just on the screen.

  3. 03

    Your data stays with you

    Operation in a dedicated container of Clu Swiss Security AG or on your own server, without third-party cloud services.

Who it is for

For businesses that want to grow without collecting software

Clu: Dashboard is built for small and medium-sized organisations that today keep working time, holidays, expenses, accounting and payroll in different programs, spreadsheets and emails.

  • 01

    SMEs with 5 to 250 people

    From craft businesses to consultancies: One system for the whole team, with a one-time licence instead of many per-head subscriptions.

  • 02

    Groups and holdings

    Several companies in one organisation, each with its own accounting. Employees only see their own company.

  • 03

    Fiduciaries and auditors

    Time-limited read access to the companies in the audit mandate only, at most 366 days, everything in the audit log.

  • 04

    Switzerland, Austria, Germany

The added value in figures

    per person and year, a good four working days

  • 1

    login and one invoice instead of eight providers in the comparison basket

Model calculation with open assumptions, not a promise.

Processes

Record, review, approve, evidence

Every process follows the same clear pattern. The role determines who approves; the standard roles can be adjusted.

  1. 01

    Record

    Staff enter time, holidays and expenses themselves, at their desk or on the move.

  2. 02

    Review

    The responsible person sees exactly the requests they are responsible for.

  3. 03

    Approve

    Approved with one click, under the four-eyes principle where it matters.

  4. 04

    Evidence

    Important actions are recorded in the audit log: Who, what, when. The auditors receive time-limited read access.

Security and architecture

Security is built in Not bolted on

Developed by Clu Swiss Security AG, with clear boundaries for your data.

  1. 01

    Mandatory two-factor

    Anyone who administers or sees confidential information also signs in with a code from their phone.

  2. 02

    No master key

    Only HR sees personnel files and salaries. Not even the administrators have access there.

  3. 03

    Everything traceable

    Audit log, monitoring and data protection tools under the Swiss FADP: Access requests, retention periods, anonymisation and full export.

  4. 04

    Operation that thinks ahead

    Daily encrypted backup with a restore test, signed updates and an automatic return to the previous version if a new one does not start cleanly.

Frequent questions

What decision makers ask us first

Do we need our own servers?

No. Clu Swiss Security AG runs Clu: Dashboard for you in a dedicated container. If you prefer, it also runs on your own server.

What happens when maintenance ends?

Nothing. Your version keeps running and the data stays with you. Only new versions are no longer covered by maintenance.

Does the administrator see everything?

No. Personnel files, salaries and accounting are deliberately excluded. The HR and Finance roles exist for that.

Can we start small?

Yes. Start with Light and switch to Pro or Max later. The data is kept, and you are charged the difference between the licence prices.
