Through more simple, efficient, and people centered technology solutions, Cometa supports educational institutions with one of their biggest challenges: \u201cscaling without losing quality or closeness with their community.\u201d The company was founded by Gonzalo Gallardo, Mateo Creamer, Andr\u00e9s Benavides, and Valeria Tapia, with the vision of transforming education in Latin America through human and scalable technology. From the beginning, the team understood that innovation in education does not only happen in the classroom. It also happens by strengthening the internal processes that help schools operate better, make clearer decisions, and grow with order.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Today, Cometa has a real team of more than 80 people distributed across different countries in Latin America and has seen exponential growth in recent years. This growth has positioned the company as one of the most innovative teams in the edtech space in the region, working closely with schools that want to modernize their management and improve the educational experience they offer. And here, a pattern appears that many growing companies know very well. Internal operations start asking for the same level of sophistication as the product. Because when the company grows, payroll, HR, data, and compliance stop being background tasks. They become part of the engine. And if that engine starts coughing, everyone hears it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Clientes: Cometa | Runahr.com\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MNCB5XGC4jo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2><b><\/b><b>What challenges were they facing with payroll before using Runa?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span>Before implementing Runa, Cometa faced important challenges related to scattered information, high dependence on manual processes, and low operational efficiency. As Kathe Garza Lehmann says, \u201cthe information was scattered, and that made it more difficult to have real visibility into payroll.\u201d That true lack of clarity in the data made decision making more complicated, especially in a context of fast growth and team expansion across different countries. When information is not organized, any adjustment becomes slower and riskier. A small payroll change can start feeling like trying to find one sock in a laundry basket full of mystery. As the company scaled and added talent in new locations, these challenges became harder to sustain. The need for stronger and more reliable processes became a priority so Cometa could support business growth without affecting internal operations or the team experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>For HR teams, this is a familiar story. Growth is exciting, yes. But it also asks tough questions. Where is the information? Who owns the process? What happens if someone is out? How much time is the team losing on manual work? And, maybe the biggest one: \u201care we still in control?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>In what areas has Runa helped them?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span>Runa has become a key ally for Cometa in payroll management and people administration. The platform has allowed the company to gain efficiency, clarity, and control over a critical process for daily operations. As Kathe Garza Lehmann explains, \u201cwe went from investing a lot of time in manual processes to having a much more organized and easier to manage payroll.\u201d Thanks to Runa, Cometa was able to fully automate its payroll, support legal compliance, and eliminate errors that previously consumed time and created internal friction. This not only improves operations. It also reduces the team\u2019s mental workload. And that matters.Because manual payroll work can look harmless from the outside. But inside the team, it can feel like carrying a backpack full of bricks while trying to answer Slack messages, review incidents, and close the month at the same time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Runa helped Cometa bring more order to the process. Information became easier to manage. Payroll became more predictable. The team gained better visibility. And the company could keep moving without having every administrative detail turn into a mini emergency. The platform\u2019s ease of use and the quality of the support team\u2019s guidance also helped make the process simple, reliable, and easy for the team to adopt. As Kathe adds, \u201cthe support has been key to feeling accompanied at all times.\u201d That close and timely support made a real difference. For a growing company, it is not enough to have a tool that works. The team also needs people behind it who understand the context, respond clearly, and help solve things before they become bigger problems.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Why did they choose Runa?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span>Cometa chose Runa because of its combination of modern technology, deep knowledge of the legal framework in Mexico, and a human service approach that understands the real needs of a fast growing startup. For Cometa, Runa was not just a payroll tool. It became a strategic partner that helped support expansion with solid, clear, and reliable processes. In companies that are growing quickly, this is no small detail. Having a well organized administrative foundation is what allows teams to keep scaling without losing control.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Because growth can be exciting. New markets, new people, new clients, new goals. All of that gives energy. But if the internal operation is weak, growth can also start to feel like building a second floor while the first one is still made of cardboard. With Runa, Cometa gained more clarity, more confidence, and more operational peace of mind. The team can fully focus on its mission of helping schools grow and modernize, knowing that payroll and HR processes have the structure needed to support the next stage of expansion. That is what made Runa the right choice for Cometa: \u201ca partner that brings order, control, and close support when growth starts moving fast.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About Cometa Cometa is an education technology company focused on helping private schools grow in a sustainable way, improve their administrative operations, and offer memorable experiences to families.
