Launch of Free Plugin Enabling Data Integration Between 'SmartHR' and 'kintone'

Nics Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Nariatsu Matsumoto) announced the release of a free plugin on May 27, 2026, that integrates the cloud-based HR software 'SmartHR' with the business application platform 'kintone' provided by Cybozu, Inc. This plugin allows for seamless mutual synchronization of employee data between SmartHR and kintone without requiring specialized IT knowledge. It aims to reduce complex tasks such as manual data entry, CSV processing, and uploading, thereby supporting improved data consistency and operational efficiency. The development was driven by the need to address issues like siloed systems and redundant data management. Key features include syncing employee data from SmartHR to kintone and registering new employee information from kintone to SmartHR. Both Cybozu and SmartHR have welcomed this tool as a significant step toward promoting business process improvement.
