The adoption of cloud services such as storage, CRM, etc., are a given at this point. One of the faster growing sectors, though, is in human resources management (HRM), sometimes known as human capital management, which is an approach to employee staffing where people are looked at as assets (human capital) whose value can be measured and can be enhanced through investment. Gartner predicts that cloud systems will account for almost half of the $9 billion human capital management systems market in 2015. By leveraging the cloud, businesses can outsource core human resources (HR) functions like payroll, benefits, and risk and compliance, eliminate the burden of HR administration and focus on growing their businesses.
