December 2025 — Profile completion, 2FA
This release is packed with upgrades: keep profiles 100% complete, boost account security with 2FA/Passkeys, access emergency contact reports instantly, sync your 1-on-1s to your calendar, and collect attachments for time-off requests. And we’re just getting started — Performance Reviews and Co-pilot are on the way.
Profile Completion
Now you can make sure employee profiles reach 100%, keeping your HR data accurate, consistent, and reliable.
With Profile Completion, you can:
Quickly spot missing information across employee profiles.
Encourage employees to update their details.
Maintain a richer, more organized company directory.
Keeping profiles complete helps everyone: managers get better insights, teams stay connected, and HR has the data they need at their fingertips.
Improved account security through 2FA & Passkeys
We’ve added an extra layer of security to your account: optional two-factor authentication (2FA) using time-based one-time codes or Passkey support.
You’ll continue to log in with your email and a one-time code sent to your inbox. What’s new is the option to require an additional code from an authenticator app – but only when signing in on a new or unrecognized device.
This means your usual login routine stays the same: quick and email-based. The second factor only comes into play when it matters most—like when someone tries to access your account from a device that has not previously been authenticated with your two-factor.
New report: employee emergency contacts
You can now easily access and export a full overview of all employees’ emergency contacts directly from Analytics → Reports.
This makes it simpler to review important information and keep records up to date whenever needed.
Attachments in time-off requests
We’ve added the ability for employees to attach supporting documents to their time-off requests, giving HR teams more flexibility and control over the approval process.
For policies that require attachments, employees can easily upload common file types like images, PDFs, and Word documents directly in their request form.
Sync 1-on-1:s with your calendar
Your 1-on-1 meetings in Aboard can now be synced directly with Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. That means your scheduled 1-on-1s will appear in your calendar automatically — making it easier to stay on top of important conversations with your team.
