    Perceptyx is a SaaS business that combines employee surveys and people analytics in a way that not only helps you see more of what’s going on in your organization, but also helps you see how to drive the organization forward. Too many surveys only focus on measurement, with overly prescriptive models that don’t offer a fresh perspective on the challenges facing your business. And they rarely connect the dots between the employee experience and business outcomes, making it difficult to know which actions will have the greatest impact. With a solution fully tailored to your specific organizational needs, Perceptyx makes it possible for organizations to have a 360 degree view of the organization. One-third of the Fortune 100 already rely on Perceptyx.
