MrTed Proud Launch Partner of EuroCloud…from MrTed

December 16, 2009

 

Marks Europe’s First SaaS and Cloud Services Business Community

HRchitect includes MrTed and SmartRecruiters in our list of top Talent Acquisition Systems vendors that businesses should consider. Jerome Ternynck, CEO of MrTed appeared on the HRchitect WebMingle on May 22, 2009. If you are looking for a new Talent Management System, or any HR system, talk to HRchitect first. We have unparalleled knowledge of the HR and Talent Management vendor community and can save you time and money in selection and implementation.

MrTed Ltd, the global leader of Talent Acquisition Solutions, today announced it is a founding launch partner of EuroCloud, Europe’s new cloud computing network of organizations created to further the SaaS revolution.

“With our strong belief in leveraging cloud computing to design enterprise-level talent acquisition solutions that are also consumer-friendly and easily personalized, we are excited to be involved in a partnership and community like EuroCloud to promote and encourage greater development and use of Software as a Service and Enterprise Cloud services and applications across Europe”, said Jerome Ternynck, CEO for MrTed.

EuroCloud was and is conceived by Pierre-José Billotte, President and Founder of the French ASP Forum, with a team of SaaS and cloud computing players from the UK, Denmark, Finland, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg and Spain, to gather together leading SaaS vendors, enablers, integrators and industry experts to share best practices and expand business across the continent.

“The cloud model stands for global reach, ecosystem partnerships and integration, and my goal in developing EuroCloud is to encourage SaaS and cloud services and applications across Europe, and to advance their use,” Billotte said.

The leading research and advisory consulting firm Bersin & Associates said in its September, 2009, assessment1 of the state of the talent acquisition market that MrTedTalentLink Cloud 9 “brings the next generation Talent Acquisition Solution towards the market, (as it) will fully embrace the cloud computing technology and enhance its partnerships.”

“The MrTedTalentLink Cloud9 release will see general availability on December 31, letting users kick off the New Year in style with the world’s most advanced talent acquisition software platform,” Ternynck said.

“Organizations throughout Europe are rapidly moving toward cloud computing solutions to expand business, eliminate overly expensive and unfriendly software that isn’t personalized, doesn’t respond quickly enough to changing business demands and is simply outmoded,” Ternynck said. “We are eager to see organizations like EuroCloud propel greater adoption of models of cloud computing that truly represent the next generation.”

EuroCloud’s launch was supported by major companies in Europe and the United States that, like MrTed, do business in multiple international markets, and were selected to join EuroCloud based on the European scope of their business. In addition to MrTed, European Launch Promoters (ELP) include Amazon Web Services, McAfee, Microsoft Corp., Salesforce.com and others. For more information visit: www.eurocloud.org.

MrTed to Kick Off 2010 with Revolutionary New Platform…from MrTed

December 11, 2009

 

Advanced Cloud Architecture, Application Portability, and Redesigned User Interface Highlight MrTedTalentLink Version 9, Launching December 31

HRchitect includes MrTed and SmartRecruiters in our list of top Talent Acquisition Systems vendors that businesses should consider. Jerome Ternynck, CEO of MrTed appeared on the HRchitect WebMingle on May 22, 2009. If you are looking for a new Talent Management System, or any HR system, talk to HRchitect first. We have unparalleled knowledge of the HR and Talent Management vendor community and can save you time and money in selection and implementation.

MrTed today announced that the latest iteration of its flagship product – MrTedTalentLink v9 – will reach general availability on December 31, enabling users to kick-off the New Year in style with the world’s most advanced talent acquisition software platform.

For 10 years MrTed has been at the forefront of innovation in the cloud computing business, and MrTedTalentLink 9 continues the tradition. For the first time users can completely customize the MrTedTalentLink platform according to their unique needs and preferences – a significant achievement that has broad implications in terms of product usability and return on investment – and the architecture and user interface have been redesigned per the latest cloud computing protocols. The new platform reflects the desires of the user community with whom MrTed worked closely for three years to ensure the most flexible, enjoyable talent acquisition experience possible.

Introducing MrTedTalentLink 9

“This is an all-new breed of talent acquisition software that we believe users are absolutely going to love,” said Jerome Ternynck, CEO at MrTed. “We have gone to great lengths to make Cloud 9 a special product that fundamentally changes the way recruiters interact with their talent acquisition platform. The response from early adopters has been tremendously positive. I’m happy to say that MrTed has once again set the standard for talent acquisition software.”

Leading research and advisory consulting firm Bersin & Associates, in their September 2009 assessment of the state of the talent acquisition market said MrTedTalentLink Cloud 9 “brings the next generation Talent Acquisition Solution towards the market, (as it) will fully embrace the cloud computing technology and enhance its partnerships.”

Key Enhancements and Benefits

Advanced cloud computing technology – MrTedTalentLink 9’s new architecture is the result of over three years of research by MrTed. It features a configurable candidate database that can easily integrate data from any source, an independent business logic layer exposed through web services, and an on-demand user interface so recruiters can customize their own workspaces. This open architecture makes it fast and easy to connect with other talent management and HR applications, so users get the full benefit of cloud computing on their desktop.

A world of apps – MrTedTalentLink 9 presents business processes as portable application modules that users can turn on, turn off, or customize to create a truly personalized experience. Cloud 9 includes apps for all major business processes, including internal and external recruitment, outplacement, contingent workforce management, vendor management, candidate processing, time sheeting, offer management, on-boarding and more. Apps are portable and can be used with other systems and interfaces, while external applications developed by other vendors can be integrated inside the Cloud 9 workspace. By leveraging the power of MrTed apps, users can enjoy the benefits of a personalized platform that meets their individual needs and preferences.

Dynamic user interface – MrTedTalentLink 9 users are free to configure and rearrange apps in order to create a personalized workspace and navigation experience. The dynamic interactivity of the user interface allows apps to be resized, dragged, dropped and even layered. Even though the interface processes large amounts of data, Cloud 9’s asynchronous data retrieval keeps the presentation layer running quickly and smoothly—a result that can only be described as enjoyable for the user. Users spend most of their time in a dynamic and personalized workspace, rather than jumping from screen to screen or module to module. In this way MrTedTalentLink more closely resembles a favorite website than like an enterprise software program.

“We’ve all seen or experienced enterprise software that claims to be flexible and user friendly but is not,” said Robert Chwastek, MrTed’s VP Product Development. “What stands out about MrTedTalentLink 9 is the extent to which the product can be shaped to meet each user’s individual requirements. This truly is the most open enterprise software product with which I’ve seen, and that openness is key to increasing user adoption, user productivity and user enjoyment. “

Kenexa Earns Two American Design Awards for Company’s Rebrand…from Kenexa

December 7, 2009

 

Company recognized for outstanding achievement in design of new marketing kit and print advertisements

HRchitect featured Kenexa in our May 2008 release of The Suite Life of Integrated Talent Management and also includes them in our list of top Talent Acquisition Systems and top Talent Management Systems vendors that businesses should consider. Kenexa participated in the Talent Management Systems panel and the Talent Acquisition Systems panel on June 10, 2009 as part of theHRshow event. Ron Hanscome, VP of Product Strategy with Kenexa appeared on the HRchitect WebMingle on June 26, 2009. If you are looking for a new Talent Management System, or any HR system, talk to HRchitect first. We have unparalleled knowledge of the HR and Talent Management vendor community and can save you time and money in selection and implementation.

Kenexa (NASDAQ: KNXA), a global provider of business solutions for human resources, was awarded two awards from American Design Awards for its efforts in rebranding the organization. American Design Awards is a business dedicated to providing fair and ethical platforms for graphic and web designers with varying experience levels and disciplines to compete on, while providing them a global audience to showcase their talents to. The American Design Awards holds two semi-annual contests, and judges each submission on creativity, effectiveness, practicality and ethics.

Kenexa placed first in the Marketing Kit Design category, which included newly branded presentation folders and marketing collateral, and second in the Print Advertisement category, which included the Kenexa Wright Brothers ad that visualizes the new brand positioning formula i X e = s. 

The new brand, released June 1, 2009, includes a complete overhaul of all marketing materials, signage, advertising and communications. The new brand is based on helping companies identify the right individuals and create the right environments to enhance individual and organizational performance.

Kenexa is the only company in the HR marketplace that has the tools, services and technology to multiply business success. Kenexa’s formula for business success, i X e = s, requires two elements—the individual and the environment. Kenexa believes that when you multiply the right individual by the right environment, success is inevitable. The multiplication sign in the formula for success is the secret to unlocking human potential. It is the factor that separates Kenexa from every other company in the marketplace. While other companies have solutions that affect the “i” or the “e,” only Kenexa can multiply them to maximize business outcomes. One of the ways the company delivers on the “X” is through Extreme Service.

“We are honored to be recognized by American Design Awards,” said Rudy Karsan, CEO, Kenexa. “These awards are a tribute to the talent and expertise of our marketing group. The new rebranding effort underscores Kenexa’s broader mission statement of transforming the global workforce. With Kenexa’s rebrand, we want to communicate clearly that our goal is to help put people around the world in the right jobs, and to create work environments that maximize their potential. We know that when people are in jobs they love and in environments that maximize their potential, they are not only more productive employees, they are more productive individuals.”

All entries are judged independently taking into account experience level and date of design. Other variables including popularity of client, name of design firm and other accolades previously attained are not considered, ensuring a fair and balanced competition.
