What it means in practice
Ranked by the people who use it
Vendor Satisfaction and User Experience are scored by practitioners, not by analysts reviewing feature matrices. That is a different signal from a quadrant position, and for a system your HR team has to run every day it is arguably the more useful one.
- Scored by HR professionals actually running the systems
- Five consecutive years, so it is not a single year anomaly
- Across all three enterprise HR service delivery categories
- Independent of Dovetail, published annually since 1998
The four main reasons for needing an HR case management solution were wanting control over HR data, metrics on our activity, a tool we could use to track cases, and a knowledge base to achieve consistent service. We felt Dovetail were not only a better fit for our needs, they also created better value.
