The leave platform for today’s leaves
Say goodbye to human error with Cocoon’s reliable, easy-to-use leave management system
Cocoon vs. traditional leave management systems
Traditional leave providers handle a lot manually—leaving room for error, inconsistency, and a subpar employee experience. Cocoon is redefining the leave experience with first-of-its kind technology you and your team can rely on.
Cocoon | Traditional leave management | |
|---|---|---|
Employee leave planning | Employees can explore options in Cocoon at any time and privately plan a leave in <10 minutes | Employees notify HR and have an intake call with a rep from the provider just to explore options |
Compliance | Software codifies 40+ federal/state leave laws with your policies and auto-sends required notices | Humans must intake 20+ data points to manually determine eligibility and send required notices |
Claims | Cocoon handles employer portion and gives employees a customized dashboard with step-by-step guidance | Employees navigate claims on their own, or a rep files on their behalf—resulting in room for error and lack of employee privacy |
Payroll calculations | Automated with software for accuracy | Done manually in spreadsheets |
Employee support | Support Team focuses only on helping employees; average reply time of 3 hours 37 minutes during business hours and a CSAT score of 90 | Reps are responsible for complex leave admin (e.g. compliance) and helping employees; SLAs between 24 and 48 hours |
Leave plan updates | Employees can update their plan in a few clicks and all relevant compliance, claims, and pay details update automatically in real-time | Employees must contact a rep to make changes; rep manually updates relevant compliance, claims, and pay details |
Admin leave tracking | Dashboard with view of all leaves, plus granular details on each employee’s leave timeline, claims status, pay, documents, and eligibility | Limited visibility into employee leave, eligibility, pay, or claims information — Admins rely on reps to provide info |
Admin reporting | In-product reporting on population trends like average policy time used and benefits recouped | No “source of truth” data hub results in limited visibility into population-level trends |
ADA leave accommodations | Seamless in-product support for request, review, and approval processes; ongoing leave tracking | Manual request and review processes; limited or no in-product tracking |
Hear from an employee: parental leave with and without Cocoon
"My first pregnancy, I was so lost and frustrated. The [second] go round, our company had partnered with Cocoon. I can’t get over how easy [they] made this…Instructions like ‘Box 1, put this date. Address needed for Area 2, copy this. Easy as that. THANK YOU Cocoon.”
