WALNUT CREEK, CA--(Marketwire - October 13, 2008) - Uniting the way business works with the
way people work, Emportal today welcomed five more enterprise clients to
its rapidly growing customer base. New companies turning to Emportal
include i365, a Seagate Company, Santa Clara, Calif.; Midwest Center for
Women's Health, Northbrook, Ill.; a Chicago-based network of outsourced
state licensed and federally registered compounding centers; a Milpitas,
Calif.-based entertainment/MP3 maker; and an Illinois-based company that is
one of the industry's leading manufacturers of traditional and contactless
bank cards.
Emportal eliminates the challenges of managing disparate HR systems and
databases by integrating them through a single portal to combine the best
capabilities of four categories of human capital management -- HRMS, ERP,
point solutions and HRO -- into one "have it your way"
software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution. Designed to provide customers with
"investment protection," Emportal supports the ever-evolving enterprise
workforce, regarding of worker type, including full- and part-time W-2
employees, consultants, contractors, etc.
David Mileski, director, Compensation, Benefits & HRMS for i365 (formerly
known as Seagate Services), said, "We needed a global HR system that could
address today's needs and support our aggressive growth plans. We reviewed
every enterprise HR option -- including Workday and ADP -- and decided on
Emportal because it will provide the functionality we need and readily
integrate with our existing domain point solutions. By far, it was the most
compelling and user-friendly of the software solutions that we reviewed,
and that's absolutely critical to our success as we seek to roll out
self-service across our global enterprise."
Nancy Brandt, vice president, HR, for the leading national outsourced
pharmacy provider, shared, "We were seeking to replace our existing HR
system. Naturally, we considered a number of SaaS-based HRMS solutions.
Emportal's ability to support all worker types and integrate our existing
solutions, and their team's commitment to our success validated our
decision to move forward with them."
Emportal's holistic approach to the delivery of HR services and
business-critical data is straightforward. The company recognizes that most
organizations have invested in point solutions as well as some form of
HRMS. Emportal's next-generation HRMS has been developed using a familiar
Microsoft 2007 "Ribbon" interface, includes the functionality requested by
customers, and integrates existing point solutions, such as compensation,
benefits administration, payroll, performance management and recruiting.
Mark Robinson, Emportal's co-founder, president and CEO, commented, "In a
short time, Emportal has become the vendor to bet on in the HRMS space.
Our approach is straightforward: it's all about the customer. And, our
willingness to listen to the needs of our customers and synthesize their
requirements into product that can be relied upon 24/7 -- regardless of
worker type or geographic location -- is reflected in our market momentum."
