Why did APlus choose UKG as their software provider?
by Paul Devlin
APlus Payroll is supported by Ultimate Kronos Group (UKG), a renowned cloud company with a global workforce of over 13,000 employees and generating revenue of over $3 billion. But who exactly is UKG, and why might you not have heard of them before?
UKG may be a newer name, but its mission is rooted in decades of experience and a seamless merger in 2020. This union brought together two industry leaders in HR and payroll solutions: Ultimate Software and Kronos Incorporated. The result was the birth of UKG, a new brand poised for tremendous growth. With a combined 70 years of expertise, UKG promises a brighter future for APlus’s employees, customers, and partners.
Kronos has a rich history dating back to 1977 as a time clock manufacturer. In 1979, it became the first American company to use computer technology for time and attendance tracking. Today, Kronos is a leading provider of workforce management and human capital management cloud solutions, trusted by thousands of organizations worldwide, including Fortune 1000® companies.
On the other hand, Ultimate Software was established in 1990 and made waves in the industry with UltiPro just three years later. By 2020, Ultimate Software evolved into a global leader in cloud-based HR and payroll solutions, safeguarding the data of over 51 million individuals in the cloud.
With numerous HR software companies in the market, why did APlus choose UKG? The answer lies in UKG’s extensive experience of more than 70 years in the field of HR and payroll. UKG offers a powerful suite of tools and services that help businesses navigate the ever-changing landscape of regulations and labor laws. With UKG as our partner, APlus can rely on their expertise, resources, and dedicated team to tackle these challenges and provide real-time software updates.
By leveraging UKG’s cloud-based infrastructure, robust security measures, and continuous software development, our clients can have peace of mind knowing that their data is safe and secure. UKG’s investment of over $40 million in R&D for HR and payroll products this year alone demonstrates its commitment to innovation. With a team of more than 700 engineers dedicated to enhancing the HR and payroll product, our clients can rest easy, knowing that UKG can swiftly adapt to regulatory changes and overcome any obstacles that may arise.
Even though many of APlus’s small and mid-sized clients may not utilize all the modules offered by the software, the beauty lies in the flexibility it provides.
