Eli review
A structured onboarding platform with tailored journeys, HR integrations and clear Go pricing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Eli is a SaaS platform for employee pre-boarding and onboarding, designed for HR and talent teams supporting new hires, managers and buddies. It covers the journey from offer acceptance through the first 90 days and beyond, with personalised content, assigned checklists, digital forms, e-signatures, policy downloads, communications, events and engagement monitoring. Its scope suits organisations that want onboarding structured around role, hire type, location and language rather than delivered as one standard sequence.
Pricing separates a lower-cost packaged option from a more configurable plan. Eli Go costs £15 per user per month on monthly billing and includes personalised experiences, line manager and buddy support, bulk Excel user upload, tailored checklists, pre-built content, and social, messaging and event features. Eli adds fully customised configuration, custom integrations, automated user upload and account lifecycle management, multilingual support, SMS notifications and timed emails. Eli Go has a minimum of 20 users per month, while the full Eli plan uses bespoke pricing. There is no free plan.
For organisations with an established HR technology environment, Eli connects with Workday, SAP, Oracle, iCIMS, Oleeo, Microsoft Entra ID, Slack, DocuSign, Jotform and SFTP. Its workflow automation, document collection, training content, progress reporting, HRIS integrations, AI analysis and engagement and wellbeing monitoring bring administration and insight into one onboarding system. Choose Eli if personalised journeys, manager and buddy involvement, and broad HR ecosystem fit matter. Consider another option if you need a free plan, a lower user threshold or fully published pricing for the more customised tier.
