Anatomy of a decision: ClearCo

As disconnected tools and processes impede full visibility and efficiency in talent management, organizations are increasingly adopting unified approaches. This has increased the competitive advantage of vendors that specialize in offering deep functionality across the talent lifecycle. ClearCo, a long-established provider of talent management software, has delivered incremental benefits to its clients due to its high levels of functionality and usability, spanning processes from recruiting to performance management, learning and development, and compensation management. Customers interviewed reported efficiency gains in previously manual areas, such as performance management and onboarding, where processes are reduced by up to 60 percent and more than 50 percent, respectively, when automated. These organizations also cite the quality of the vendor’s customer support, ease of integration, and ability to surface insights through reporting and analytics tools as significant drivers of ongoing value as their deployments have expanded.
