Key Findings & Highlights:

Cornerstone OnDemand (CSOD) is a cloud based talent management, learning, and human capital management software provider based in Santa Monica, California.

Cornerstone OnDemand cloud based HCM software offering provides the following modules:

  • Core HR suite
  • Recruiting suite
  • Performance suite
  • Learning suite

CSOD offers a modular approach, so there are no forced modules required for startup; clients can pick and implement any combination to fit their unique needs. Its HCM offering is focused on the transformational elements of HR vs. transactional, and therefore purposely lacks native payroll and benefits.

CSOD positions itself as a "talent-driven HCM provider", and therefore focuses its solution on the transformational vs. transactional elements of HR.  The Cornerstone platform can also act as a flexible wrapper or connector to consolidate systems globally, and to connect it to CSOD's various modules based on client needs. 

Its offering is globally focused and targeted to the middle, upper middle, and large enterprise client; its ~3150 clients range in size from <1k to >600k employees. Its largest markets are in the U.S., U.K., and France.
