About Juno HRMS
Juno HRMS is a cloud-based HR and payroll platform that helps South African businesses run compliant payroll, manage leave, benefits and deductions, and keep accurate employee records — without a dedicated HR or payroll team.
What Juno does
Payroll
Run compliant payroll in minutes. Juno handles SARS calculations and generates payslips automatically, so you avoid penalties and manual errors.
Leave Management
Track and approve leave in line with the Basic Conditions of Employment Act. Balances update automatically and flow through to payroll.
Benefits & Deductions
Configure benefits and deductions once and let them apply correctly on every pay run, keeping net pay accurate for every employee.
People Directory
Keep a single, accurate record of everyone in your organization. Employees update their own details, giving you cleaner data with less effort.
Team Culture
Celebrate birthdays and work anniversaries and run pulse surveys to keep a read on how your team is doing — included on the Free plan.
What makes Juno different
Built for South African compliance
Juno is aligned with SARS requirements and the Basic Conditions of Employment Act (BCEA), and we keep it current as legislation changes so you do not have to track updates yourself.
Month-to-month, no lock-in
Every account is billed month to month. You commit to one month at a time rather than signing a fixed multi-month or annual contract.
Peak-usage billing
You are billed at the end of each month based on your highest plan and user count for that month. Mid-month changes take effect immediately with no pro-rata math.
Self-serve with a real free tier
Create an account and start in seconds — no sales call required. The Free plan covers unlimited users for the HR directory and culture tools, and paid plans are free to try for 14 days without a credit card.
One platform, from directory to payslip
People records, leave, benefits, deductions and payroll live in one system, so data entered once flows through to every pay run instead of living in disconnected tools.
Who uses Juno
- Small and medium South African businesses running their own payroll
- Founders and operators without a dedicated HR or payroll team
- Bookkeepers and accountants processing payroll on behalf of clients
- HR and office managers who need accurate, self-updating employee records
The team behind Juno
Juno HRMS is built and operated by Jovian Origin (Pty) Ltd. Juno HRMS was born from a simple observation: across South African businesses, too much time and energy is spent managing HR, payroll and compliance-related queries. Having experienced this firsthand, we built Juno to take the complexity out of these essential processes—reducing the time, expertise and administrative effort required to get them right, so business owners can focus on running and growing their businesses.
SL XimbaFounder
Sandile is a tech entrepreneur and software engineer passionate about turning complex problems into simple, scalable solutions. He founded Juno to take the pain out of compliance, giving business owners more freedom to focus on building and growing their businesses.
How Juno works
Juno is a web application — there is nothing to install. You sign up, set up your organization, add your people, and run payroll from any browser.
You can get started entirely on your own in minutes. If you would like a hand, hands-on onboarding support is available. Ongoing support is handled by email at support at junohrms.com.
Billing is month to month, calculated at the end of each month on your peak usage — the highest plan and number of users during that month.
