Equinix
Streamlines HR & Benefits Administration
with the PDS Vista HRMS Solution
Blue Bell, Pa., October 16, 2006 – PDS, an award-winning
developer of web-based human resource and payroll
systems, today announced that it has implemented
its Vista human resource management system (HRMS)
for Equinix, Inc. (Nasdaq: EQIX), a leading global
provider of network-neutral data centers and Internet
exchange services.
With more than 500 employees and serving 11 markets
in the United States and Asia Pacific, Equinix
has replaced its existing HR solution with PDS’
Vista HR and benefits administration solution.
With PDS’ hosted/managed services model Equinix
has complete access to its critical employee data,
access for managers and employees and comprehensive
HRMS functionality without requiring the support
of an in-house IT department while also having
the flexibility to easily adapt the system as
the company changes. PDS implemented Vista in
less than 90 days, helping Equinix streamline
and automate its HRMS processes.
“Having been involved in many HRMS implementations
in the past, I was extremely impressed that Vista
was up and running so quickly,” said Debby Love-Sudduth,
HR automation consultant for Equinix. “Vista is
not only intuitive, flexible and easy to use,
but also is very comprehensive, especially in
meeting our international requirements. We are
now able to easily create customized reports,
and we have more control of the system than with
other solutions on the market. With Vista, we
are streamlining our processes and doing it at
a much lower cost.”
“Equinix had a very aggressive implementation
deadline as they transitioned from their previous
system,” explained George Brady, vice president
of Sales at PDS. “The transition went smoothly
and we are now working with them to add new workflows
and build additional interfaces with other applications
and services that will help them maximize the
functionality of the Vista solution.”
