"In all of our years in the HR and talent technology marketplace, so many solution providers come and go," said Ben Eubanks, Principal Analyst, Lighthouse Research and Advisory. "The ones with real value and staying power are who buyers need to connect with, but it's hard for them to navigate the waters of technology evaluation with hundreds of providers in the industry. This awards program gives buyers a shortlist of vetted, capable providers specific to their needs, whether they are looking for a new learning experience platform, a talent acquisition CRM, or a core HR analytics tool."

Waggl provides a robust, yet agile Employee Voice platform that inspires employees and empowers leaders by catalyzing authentic dialogue and alignment around critical business topics. The company recently launched the Waggl Engagement (WE) Solution, which serves as a critical component of the essential productivity suite for all workplaces, remote or in-person, by helping organizations harness the collective intelligence of their people. Based on a cloud-based HR management interface, the WE solution comes with a centralized dashboard that enables users to invite employee insights in real-time and helps organizations streamline and elevate their Employee Voice programs. The WE Solution helps organizations bolster agility, resilience and retention by delivering actionable insight, fresh perspective, and tangible knowledge to leaders and teams, and enabling them to quickly apply them to improving business objectives.

"We are flattered to receive the HR Tech Award in the category of Talent Management," said Michael Papay, Co-founder and CEO, Waggl. "In the midst of the current global pandemic and recession, we continue to be inspired on a daily basis by the opportunity to help employees and organizations improve employee engagement through transparency, dialogue, and more actionable insights."

In Q1'20, Waggl was recognized for the third consecutive year as one of the Best Places to Work in the San Francisco Bay Area by the San Francisco Business Times, Silicon Valley Business Journal, ranking #8 for smallest companies. The company also received major accolades for corporate culture and growth from Forbes as one of America's Best Startup Employers, and from Financial Times as one of The Americas Fastest Growing Companies 2020.

The company was named as "Employee Engagement Vendor of the Year" by the 2019 North American Employee Engagement Awards, recognized as a Top Workplace of 2019 by the Bay Area Newsgroup, and by San Francisco Business Times/Silicon Valley Business Journal as one of the Best Places to Work, earning the #2 ranking for wellness and the #10 spot for smallest companies. Waggl was also recognized by the 9th Annual Best in Biz Awards as "Best Local Company of the Year" for the San Francisco Bay Area.
