Rippling is proud to have been included by Gartner in its 2024 Market Guide of Cloud HCM Suites. We were named a “Representative Vendor” for Cloud HCM Suites for Regional and/or Sub-1,000 Employee Enterprises in North America.

Rippling serves customers between 2 and 10,000 employees, helping you onboard, pay, and manage employees around the world. 

According to Gartner, “the cloud HCM market is set to grow by 11% annually, with HCM suites comprising a large part of the investment based on the volume of inquiry received on the topic.”

“During our inquiries, most HR technology leaders in regional and/or sub-1,000 employee enterprises expressed interest in sourcing HR functional needs as a suite from a single provider that can meet most of their requirements,” Gartner Market Guide for Cloud HCM Suites for Regional and/or Sub-1,000 Employee Enterprises.

The Rippling difference 

And that’s exactly what Rippling does: we’re proud to offer an all-in-one solution to help you run your company better, without having to create a “Frankensystem” of various solutions stitched together to meet your needs. Every application in Rippling was built to work together and our best-of-breed apps cover the full breadth of your global HR needs, from onboarding to offboarding: from payroll to HR, recruiting, time and attendance, compliance, and more. 

Gartner Market Guide also notes that “despite the maturity of the cloud HCM suites market, adoption still remains challenging because of concerns including complexities in configuration, resistance to change from key user roles and a shortage of internal resources with needed skills.” 

Rippling solves those challenges: our platform is easy to seamlessly configure and customize, and our implementation and services teams can help support you every step of the way.

When picking an HCM, keep in mind:

According to Gartner, here are some things to keep in mind when selecting your next HCM platform.

  • Connect your choice to business value to justify the investment. Potential examples include: improving data quality and reporting, delivery of employee experience capabilities, and standardizing HR processes in support of operational efficiencies and business process agility.

  • Prepare for your software’s management by establishing clear roles, support structures and governance principles to ensure constituency, quality and best practice across HR technology centers of excellence. 

  • Select a suitable vendor by considering factors such as average customer size, experience in relevant industries and geographies, and functional and technical alignment to organizational requirements.

  • Improve chances of fitting with your evolving priorities by assessing the vendors’ long-term viability, future vision and roadmap, customer momentum and services as well as your organization’s headcount growth trajectory. Establish a clear understanding of the HCM suite modernization and cloud migration approach by recognizing the differences in former and current scope and effect.
