"We continue to receive very positive feedback from the analyst and corporate communities on the quality and value of our annual Human Resources Self-Service Survey and white paper analysis," David Link, vice president, eWorkplace, The Hunter Group, said. "Our 2000 survey makes clear that the human resource function is quickly evolving, and that Workscape continues to be the leader amongst enterprise self-service solutions providers.
