How PeopleDoc by Ultimate Software is Responding to COVID-19
Est. Read Time: 2 min.
Like you, we’ve been closely monitoring the latest news about the COVID-19 (coronavirus). As cases continue to increase both nationally and globally, we are working to ensure the safety of our people and our community, as well as the ongoing support of our customers. New updates are happening on a day-by-day—and sometimes minute-by-minute—basis, and we will continue to adapt our policies and best practices as needed.
Precautions we’re taking
The world we all live and work in is heavily impacted by the coronavirus (COVID-19). We strongly believe it’s the mission of each and any of us to preserve it and prepare better times.
At PeopleDoc by Ultimate Software, we’ll do our part, ensuring the health and safety of our teams, customers, and partners, while keeping the quality of service you’re used to expecting from us.
As part of our response to COVID-19, our offices in Europe are now closed and all our teams are working remotely. PeopleDoc has always been a staunch supporter of remote work and 40% of our people already work remotely full time. As a result, our people are experienced and prepared to support the needs of our customers, partners, and vendors virtually. We have the utmost confidence in them and their ability to continue providing best-in-class products and services while protecting themselves and those they love.
We’re here to help
Our Business Continuity Team is closely following the situation, and we are available and ready to help you. Our customers will continue receiving the same award-winning support they’ve come to expect from us.

Every year, we try to analyse global macro-level social and economic trends to make predictions about the future of work. At the beginning of 2020, we shared our 2020 MegaTrends with our customers and the broader HR community. We hoped to identify big topics that every HR leader has to have in mind to prepare their organisations for the years to come. Now 6 months later, we are faced with a massive public health crisis that no one saw coming. We are living through a global pandemic that has changed the way we work overnight.
$28M in Series C funding, solid partnerships and customer wins
I am thrilled to announce our Series C funding of $28 million led by Eurazeo, along with our historical investors Accel Partners, Alven Capital, and Kernel Investments. Eurazeo is one of the leading listed investment firms in Europe. This new funding will help accelerate our growth in the U.S. (American Express, Fast Retailing, Georgetown University and Paychex are a few of our new clients) and our revenue performance globally (we have quadruped our global revenue and have now over 400 customers).
