“With rapid improvement of IT infrastructure across Africa, new technologies are making automation more affordable. What is really interesting is that due to the inherent simplicity of new technologies and the flexible pricing models we are able to offer, there isn’t really a specific industry or company size making use of our software but it rather spans across a wide variety of sectors.” Says Lötter

“Another interesting point is that the buyers of new technologies have shifted from being traditional the IT manager to business management. The visibility of Cloud Computing, Mobility and the financial benefits are making this a discussion topic for executive and operational management, as it is these individuals who are making the decisions about the technology they want to utilise across their businesses.We have seen that 46% of the buyers are executive management and only 7% of the purchases are made by IT management.”

New technologies are leveling the playing field in terms of HR technology, which has traditionally only been accessible to big corporates. Through competitive and flexible pricing models and the ease of use, all business can ensure that they have the very best in people management practices in place. “We see Africa as a key focus of our operations in the next 3 years and want to provide valuable solutions to our African customers and partners.” Lötter explained.
