TalentSoft, the European Talent Management SaaS solution, has been, once again, unanimously recognised as a leader by market analysts.
France's leading HR software vendor
Back in June TalentSoft was acknowledged by IDC, the world's leading information technology market consultancy and research firm, in its study of the French market examining Cloud Computing and SaaS1.
TalentSoft has reached the top spot in HR management software with a 17.7% market share, far ahead of its main competitors.
A particularly strong differentiating factor has been the optimisation of the TalentSoft solution for the Cloud. To quote Cyril Meunier, the study's co-author, "The interviews conducted by IDC highlighted in particular a strong level of expertise in bringing Cloud-based services to market, generating linear performance and real continuity of service, while at the same time controlling the model's cost prices".
TalentSoft's achievements, less than 6 years after the company's foundation, demonstrate its success as a "pure player" in the SaaS sector.
An impressive rise and a powerful solution recognised by professionals
The last few months have also been marked by a series of honours awarded by key analysts.
Recognised as Best Cloud Offering 2012
In April, TalentSoft was awarded the Best Cloud Offering Trophy by EuroCloud. Selected from among 115 applications, TalentSoft was rewarded for its solution's integrated features: career and mobility management, training and assessment interviews management, and also compensation.
Named in 3 categories in Gartner's recent study on Human Capital Management
Gartner's recent study, "Hype Cycle for Human Capital Management Software", published on 1st August 2012, named TalentSoft as a key player in three areas: Succession Management, Talent Management Suites and Performance Assessment.

This prize is one of the most honorable IT-awards in the German speaking countries (Germany, Austria and Switzerland).

TalentSoft's rapid growth has enabled it to be identified as one of France's leading software vendors. Back in June, TalentSoft appeared in the Global Software Leaders rankings, created by PAC, PriceWaterhouseCoopers and AFDEL, going straight in at No.1 in the HR Management rankings.
