Data residency within EU

Hailey HR was founded in 2020 after its founders identified a gap in the market while searching for an HR solution that met their needs. They sought a modern, user-friendly HR system that complied with GDPR but in finding none decided to take things into their own hands.

Achieving competitive edge with European cloud 

Hailey HR has empowered over 500 HR teams to streamline processes, save time and ensure GDPR compliance. Managers and employees have the information they need, right at their fingertips while maintaining the highest level of data security. 

UpCloud’s European cloud-native offering has enabled Hailey to stand out in the market with top-tier data security. 

GDPR-compliant cloud hosting with UpCloud

 As a HRM platform operating in Europe, Hailey must adhere to data privacy regulations, such as GDPR, necessitating cloud requirements that ensure data residency within the European Union, robust encryption measures, and transparent data processing practices. 

With its strong commitment to ensuring data security, Hailey needed to find an ISO 27001 certified, European provider that could help the company fulfil GDPR compliance requirements.

“Before working with UpCloud, we were using an American provider, however, that was before our platform handled large amounts of sensitive customer data. Once we began storing more sensitive information, we made the switch to European servers owned by a European company”

Peter Weibull, Chief Technology Officer at Hailey 

With annual recurring revenue (ARR) growth of 570% in the last 2 years and 100% of its customer base with headquarters operating in Europe, Hailey HR has successfully managed to fulfil the demands of end-users in addition to bolstering their platform utilising UpCloud’s reliable and performant cloud solutions.

Continuous growth with the right infrastructure

In addition to the compliance requirements, Hailey sought technical solutions that would enable the company to scale and infrastructure that would scale in parallel. 

“We were searching for Platform as a Service (PaaS) solutions rather than Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) in order for our developers to continue focusing on our application rather than the infrastructure running it.” 

Peter Weibull, CTO at Hailey

Utilising UpCloud’s Managed Databases, Hailey’s team of developers can focus on further strengthening user experience on the application without worrying about the deployment or maintenance of servers. This commitment to serving their end-users is evident, with many praising the platform for its ease of use and accessibility.

With continued close collaboration and innovation, the team here at UpCloud is excited to see Hailey going from strength to strength and are thrilled to be part of their journey.
