History

beqom was founded as Excentive International in 2009, by software executives coming from Hyperion, OutlookSoft and SAP.[2][3]

The company gained notability in 2009 as one of the few HR software vendors offering a comprehensive compensation application.[4] That same year, the company began its worldwide expansion with the opening of its North American headquarters.[5]

On September 1, 2013, the company changed its name to beqom.[6]

In July 2014, Swisscom Ventures, the investing arm of Swisscom AG, and Renaissance PME, a Swiss pension investing fund managed by Swiss technology investor Vinci Capital, announced that they had completed a financing round with beqom to help fund its international expansion efforts.[7]
