HR’s role is shifting from improving talent acquisition and management processes, to helping lead organizational transformation. AI is reshaping HR’s function, but limited budgets make agility and strategic alignment essential for successful adoption of new technologies and practices. To succeed, HR leaders must assess their organization’s readiness for change, surface hidden workforce capabilities, and guide adoption with confidence. If you’ve been in HR for a while, you probably remember the days when your entire system lived in a spreadsheet — and if you don’t, consider yourself lucky. Today, HR technology has advanced significantly, but with that progress comes complexity. The average organization now manages 15 to 20 different HR tools and tech systems. With so many tools and limited budgets, you’re likely facing a critical […]
Recently, I had the opportunity to attend HR Tech 2025 . After years of observing this industry as a customer and analyst, I came away both amazed and thoughtful about the state of HR technology and the way vendors communicate their innovations. The State of HR Technology Today The advancements in HR software over the past few years are nothing short of revolutionary. From AI-driven solutions to streamlined workforce management tools, the software on display at HR Tech 2025 has the potential to accelerate organizations’ capabilities by years—if deployed effectively. For end users, the key takeaway is clear: if you haven’t explored HR technology in the last few years, now is the time. The innovations showcased at this year’s event could fundamentally improve how HR […]
One thing’s for sure in HR tech: everything is agentic AI. Or better yet, just “agentic.” In the frigid back conference halls of the Mandalay Bay convention center, past the food court, and up the escalator banks, the word “agentic” bounced across the walls and danced through the air. It’s the hot new thing. Everyone’s talking about it. And maybe that’s the problem. Over the course of the two and a half days at the 3Sixty Insights table, I was briefed, debriefed, and briefed again with vendors from across the HR tech industry. I met and spoke with many witty, intelligent, and forward-thinking people, all telling – or being told to tell – the same story. As an analyst, the result was often walking away […]

My heart is full and my battery is drained, but in the most beautiful way. Prior to HR Technology Conference, my experience with conferences was from the practioner’s and blogger perspective. I had the opportunity to attend HR Tech as a learner and an analyst in an industry where I’ve been a customer, a decision maker, and a functionality geek. I got to see some amazing people I had not seen in years or even had never met IRL. I’ve always loved learning, attending demos, and seeing how people are looking to solve their business challenges with people tech solutions. It was fun to have the experience of being in HR for 20+ years and now having a different conversation with vendors, finding out from […]

Balancing focus and flexibility, navigating the suite versus point solution debate in HR tech. A question that regularly pops up as the technology environment evolves is: Which is the better approach for HR — to put all of its eggs in one basket by focusing on a single, comprehensive tech suite, or to address each requirement with a focused point solution, such as an ATS developed by one company, a performance management platform offered by another and a payroll system provided by a third? Point solutions and suites will always need to coexist, said Ward Christman, founder of HR Tech Advisor, an HR technology advisory firm in West Chester, Pa. “No suite will ever be sufficient for all customers, and will probably be insufficient for any […]

LOS ANGELES, CA — May 21, 2025 — A new independent research report from 3Sixty Insights is shining a light on Fama Technologies as a critical solution for today’s evolving hiring landscape. The report examines how Fama helps companies uncover job-relevant misconduct signals before day one, bridging the gaps left by resumes, interviews, and traditional background checks.

In a world where two thirds of sales opportunities are competitive—and those opportunities close at 5x the rate of non-competitive ones—competitive intelligence (CI) is a necessity. Yet most companies aren’t just underperforming—they’re flying blind. That’s why Crayon’s Jon White, SVP of Product, joined 3Sixty Insights’ GTM Innovators podcast to talk with Kyle James about how AI is changing the CI game forever. This post breaks down Jon’s key takeaways and what your team can do to compete smarter, faster, and with more impact. Why Competitive Enablement Is Broken (And How AI Can Help Fix It) Competitive intelligence used to be a manual grind: scanning websites, collecting review site quotes, reading press releases, and trying to translate all that noise into something useful for your reps. This is the […]
