For the fourth year in a row, Cornerstone OnDemand (NASDAQ: CSOD) has been recognized as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Integrated Talent Management 2014 report1, the company announced today.
“Cornerstone has strong functional capabilities, true multi-tenant SaaS for scalability and solid customer references. Other strengths include high scores in customer service, depth of capability of individual modules and timeliness of releases,” Lisa Rowan, program director of HR, learning and talent strategies for IDC, states in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Integrated Talent Management report. “Cornerstone remains one of the very few whose talent platform is entirely organically built.”
Regarding Cornerstone’s efforts to enhance the user experience, Rowan notes in the report, “Of particular note on the UX front is Cornerstone’s Universal Profile. The Universal Profile is not just a single repository for all employee data but a single point from which employees and managers can do just about every talent function without having to think about module.”
“We are pleased to be recognized as a talent management market leader for the fourth consecutive year in the IDC MarketScape for our industry,” said Adam Miller, founder and CEO of Cornerstone OnDemand. “Over the past few years, the focus of this market has shifted dramatically from process automation to employee interaction and collaboration. To both meet and drive these changes, Cornerstone has made significant investments in creating a more attractive, consumerized user experience with higher end-user adoption rates for our clients. Of course, as evidenced in this IDC MarketScape, we remain ‘one of very few companies whose talent platform is entirely organically built,’ an increasingly important point in a crowded and complex market.”
