Costly HR tech buying mistakes and how to avoid them

Overview

Choosing an HR technology platform today is no longer a routine system upgrade. It is a long-term bet on how your organization will scale, adapt, and support its workforce.

According to Gartner research, nearly 60 percent of HR technology buyers experience regret within 12 to 24 months of purchase. That regret rarely comes from a lack of features. It comes from decisions that did not age well.

Catch Chris Harvey, Chief Research Officer at HR Technology Advice and Joe Perez, Sales Director at Darwinbox in a fireside chat conversation where they explore how HR teams can evaluate HCM platforms through a more strategic, future-ready lens. Grounded in real-world experiences across fast-growing and mid-sized organizations, the discussion focuses on moving beyond short-term requirements to building a people technology foundation that can evolve with changing business needs.

You will gain practical perspective on what truly matters when assessing modern HCM platforms, including early warning signs to watch for during evaluation and how post-implementation support models can become a critical differentiator over time.

This session is designed for HR teams who want today’s decisions to enable growth, not limit it.
