ERP+ expert adds leading employee app to HR management portfolio for mid-market
Weilerbach, February 23, 2024 ‒ proALPHA, one of the leading providers of ERP+ software solutions for the mid-market manufacturing industry, has expanded its portfolio by acquiring Quiply Technologies GmbH (Quiply). After the acquisition of Persis, the leading provider of innovative HR software solutions and its merger with tisoware, the specialist in time management and access control, the company is taking the next strategic step to expand its product portfolio in HR.
proALPHA thus responds to the customers' growing demand for solutions for collaborative and integrative employee communication (employee engagement) and innovative services for communication in change processes (change management). The cloud-native Quiply app enables medium-sized and large companies to further digitalize HR processes and modernize internal communication in real time, on mobile devices and regardless of location.
Since its founding in 2015, Quiply, based in Cologne, has been supporting around 400 medium-sized companies in the DACH region to enhance their internal communication. The quickly implementable, secure app for iOS, Android, and web browsers particularly appeals to employees who do not use a desktop or the company's intranet – such as the people working in industrial manufacturing, transportation and logistics, retail and commerce, healthcare, and employees with high travel activity.
With customizable channels for multimedia content in over 100 languages and chat functions for both 1-on-1 and group conversations, it enables efficient internal teamwork and quick coordination. Through continuous professional exchange, regardless of time and location, the app contributes to improving work efficiency in companies and fostering a positive corporate culture.
Future-proof employee communication for generations Y and Z
Unlike private networks or chat services, Quiply is fully GDPR-compliant and relies on secure 256-bit TLS data encryption, advanced firewall as well as malware and virus scanners. Among Quiply's renowned customers are Hengst SE, Engbers GmbH & Co. KG, FRÄNKISCHE Rohrwerke Gebr. Kirchner GmbH & Co. KG, RheinfelsQuellen H. Hövelmann GmbH & Co. KG, Andermatt Swiss Alps AG and TKD KABEL GmbH.
"The demand for modern employee communication, especially for non-desk workers, will remain high in the coming years. Especially employees from generations Y and Z welcome innovative and digital solutions like those offered by Quiply. Due to demographic changes, the pool of potential applicants is shrinking, making it more challenging to recruit qualified talents. Fulfilling the requirements of the younger generation for modern communication and information is therefore becoming increasingly important," explains Markus Steinberger, CEO of tisoware and Persis.
