PLEASANTON, CA and VIENNA, AUSTRIA–(Marketwired – Jul 22, 2015) – Workday, Inc. (NYSE: WDAY), a leader in enterprise cloud applications for finance and human resources, today announced that Siemens Convergence Creators, a leading software solution and service provider in the fields of communications, media, and technology, has selected Workday Human Capital Management (HCM). With Workday, Siemens Convergence Creators will be able to move its HR operations off of multiple legacy systems and into the cloud for a technology foundation that is agile, fast, and architected to provide workforce analytics that will support the company for its growth, greater efficiency and leaner processes.
Siemens Convergence Creators wanted one global, modern HR system that could adapt with growth and change, engage the entire organization, and provide deeper visibility into its workforce, which spans across 10 countries.
