We’re proud to announce that SAP is a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud HCM Suites for 1,000+ Employee Enterprises for the 10th consecutive time.
SAP was once again recognized for its ability to execute and completeness of vision. Gartner defines cloud HCM suites for 1,000+ employee enterprises as cloud application suites that deliver functionality for attracting, developing, engaging, retaining, and managing employees.
SAP SuccessFactors HCM provides global HR cloud software to over 10,000 customers worldwide, from startups and mid-sized companies to large enterprises. With a strong global core, embedded AI capabilities, and a robust partner ecosystem, SAP SuccessFactors empowers organizations with the technology to help unlock their workforce potential. By combining skills intelligence and flexible HCM solutions, our solutions can enable organizations to stay future-ready and continuously adapt in an ever-changing world.
Shaping the future of work
At SAP Sapphire in May, we announced several exciting innovations and new product offerings designed to transform how HR and business leaders manage, empower, and support their people, including:
- Performance and Goals Agent, our first HR agent, equips managers with critical insights to help foster more meaningful and productive conversations with employees.
- WalkMe for SAP SuccessFactors HCM can accelerate adoption of SAP SuccessFactors solutions by offering users contextual guidance while also giving HR teams insights into where there may be gaps.
- People Intelligence package in SAP Business Data Cloud helps unify customers’ people, skills, finance, and business data into AI-driven workforce insights—enabling HR and business leaders to make smarter, more proactive decisions that drive measurable outcomes.
- SAP SuccessFactors Enterprise Service Management, our new HR service delivery solution, can accelerate ticket case resolutions with AI, giving employees self-service tools to quickly get answers while freeing up HR teams from time-consuming tasks.
Our first half 2025 release also brought over 250 new innovations designed to address any business need and help organizations stay ahead of the curve, including Joule on mobile, redesigned candidate and alumni journeys in recruiting and onboarding, an enhanced user experience in SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central, and more.
As organizations continue to face growing skills gaps, SAP is committed to helping its customers attract and retain top talent in an increasingly competitive landscape. On September 11, SAP completed its acquisition of SmartRecruiters, a leading talent acquisition software provider, further strengthening the ability to support customers across the entire hire-to-retire journey.
