Silk Road 2008 report cover

Still a Strong Trajectory, Offering and Following

Our report on SilkRoad’s Red Carpet offering last year was one of the most requested reports we produced. Because of that market interest we sought out the SilkRoad executives at this year’s HR Technology show in Chicago to get a more detailed briefing on their products and their vision of the HR space. SilkRoad investor Flip Filipowski sat in on much of that conversation.

In short, we continue to be impressed with the company’s marketing efforts, the enthusiasm they project in the space, the additions to the product line and more.

The new report is much longer and covers more than just the RedCarpet product. OpenHire, WingSpan, GreenLight and Eprise are also covered in this new document.

This report costs $395 for a single-user copy. It will be available to requestors for no charge until December 15, 2008. To receive a copy, please submit a request through our web site.

Silk Road’s Personal Approach to On-Boarding

At the recent HR Technology show in Chicago, we briefly reviewed SilkRoad technology, Inc.’s new on-boarding product. That review was documented in a brief research report. A portion of the Prognosis section of the report includes:

SilkRoad’s approach to HR technology bears some cultural resemblance to the early days of PeopleSoft. It’s not just that the technology is competitive with other products, SilkRoad’s approach to these functional needs is different. The difference is in the care they have taken to understand the underlying humanity that must be engineered into human resource technology.

We believe this firm’s approach will be welcomed in human resource circles. SilkRoad is targeting mostly midmarket firms for its solutions. It is also working hard to keep the total landed cost of its capabilities at very low price points. Because of the sensitivity of cost to the SMB marketplace, SilkRoad should benefit from better than average market uptake.”
