Closing Technology Gaps for Human Resources

Users are seeing the gap between the promise of cloud-based talent management technologies and the value those technologies deliver. The cloud promises lower implementation costs and a faster time to value while talent management promises value across the employee lifecycle, from acquisition through off-boarding. Nucleus noted this gap during the many announcements, presentations and vendor meetings at HR Tech 2012. Vendors that minimize complexity, address integration, and provide content and guidance up front can bridge the functionality and usability gaps that are preventing users from realizing the higher ROI associated with cloud-based technology.
