Our take
Gaining insights into workforces through people data is invaluable to businesses, allowing them to understand how to retain their hardest-working staff members, benchmark worker performance against competitors, and enable the growth of leaders within the organization. While HR departments have access to some productivity tools that utilize people analytics, their fragmented and antiquated nature demands a more unified and future-proof solution.
Visier provides an all-in-one cloud-based people analytics platform for businesses, aiming to drive staff retention programs, maximize recruitment outcomes, arm leaders with workforce insights, and ultimately connect business outcomes to the people involved. The platform achieves this through a variety of integrative tools such as performance benchmarking, smart workforce questionnaires, data management automation, and people-powered insights.
Despite the fact that the company faces competition from other people-data solutions, Visier continues to stand out by this unified approach. The company has existing partnerships with EA, Uber, and NCI too, demonstrating success in improving leadership through people analytics, reducing labour costs, and increasing staff retention. In contrast to much of the broader tech sector, the company has grown consistently and accelerated its geographic expansion, a testament to its product's value to businesses.
