PeopleDoc is a cloud-based HR service delivery & HR document management platform. With offices in New York, Toronto, Paris, and Stuttgart, PeopleDoc provides SaaS (software as a service) solutions that services over 2.5 million users worldwide. Named by Gartner as a Cool Vendor in Human Capital Management in 2014,[1] PeopleDoc's HR solutions can automate administrative HR process in various stages of the employee lifecycle. Its tools also enable customers to comply with both global and local HR regulations and gain real-time disaster recovery.[2] PeopleDoc customers include American Express, Fast Retailing, Georgetown University, Match.com, Paychex, Starbucks and Motorola,[3] among many others. The company has also established partnerships with ADP, SAP SuccessFactors and Workday. The France-based technology company has doubled its European revenue every year since its launch in 2010.[4]

History

PeopleDoc started as Novapost in 2007, on the campus of the HEC Business School in Paris with an idea to replace postmail: a platform intended to provide a single digital file management system that organizes and tracks organizations’ employee and policy information.

In 2009, the HR community took notice of the consumer document vault and asked the co-founders to design a product specifically for HR. PeopleDoc then developed cloud technology to assist HR administrative staff in their goals to improve efficiency, reduce operating costs, and automate processes.

In 2012, PeopleDoc raised €1.5M in Seed funding from Alven Capital and Kernel Capital Partners.[5]

In 2014, PeopleDoc expanded its human resources software service worldwide and raised a $17.5 million Series B round led by Accel Partners.[6]

In August 2015, PeopleDoc sponsored the Employee File Management Survey, a national HR Daily Advisor Research/BLR survey, focused on the intersection of technology, HR, and how HR professionals today are handling their workforce’s important documents.[7]

In September 2015, PeopleDoc raised a $28 Million Series C round of investment led by Paris-based Eurazeo while PeopleDoc’s existing investors — Accel Partners, Alven Capital and Kernel Capital Partners — participated as well. PeopleDoc has raised a total of $53.5 million to date.[8]

Software

PeopleDoc has four main components to their HR service delivery. Its HR Document Management system allows for employee and HR documents to be centralized from multiple sources, including paper and existing HR systems, and stored in the cloud. PeopleDoc's Employee Portal and Case Management enables companies to automate HR processes, ensure consistency and regulatory compliance, and improve employee satisfaction. Last but not least, their Employee Onboarding portal allows for electronic documents and electronic signatures via a company branded portal.[9]
