UK-based accountancy software provider IRIS Software Group has boosted its position in the payroll space by purchasing Star Computers.
Star Computers Limited will be integrated into the company's Human Capital Management (HCM) division, which sells payroll & HR software for organisations with large, complex payroll requirements.
Oliver Shaw, IRIS HCM’s chief executive, said: "IRIS delivers 2.5 million payslips every month to the UK workforce. We’re delighted to be able to reach and positively affect a million more UK employees through the acquisition of Star Computers."
Meanwhile, last month, it also acquired Contact Group, whose engagement software is used by 2,000 UK schools, nurseries and sixth form colleges to help improve school-home communications and reduce truancy rates.
The Contact Group will be integrated into IRIS’ education division, which includes PS Financials financial management, Results Squared asset management and communications, and ParentMail online payment and parent engagement software.
