Peopleware
Düsseldorf, Germany
What it is
Peopleware is a paid, cloud workforce-management suite for contact centers and outsourcers. Its predictive AI forecasts workload up to 24 months ahead, with detail down to 15-minute intervals. Scheduling can account for employee preferences, skills, shift swaps, shift bidding, multiple sites, and rule compliance. The suite includes volume and demand forecasting, adherence tracking, intraday management, skills-based scheduling, and agent self-service. Users can access it through any browser and device. Integration options include prebuilt cloud connectors, CSV and ODBC exchange, and a REST API; ADP, Zendesk, and Freshworks are named connector examples. Peopleware says the service runs on AWS in logically isolated customer environments. It states that data is encrypted at rest and in transit and never used to train machine-learning models or AI systems. The company lists ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification and GDPR support through a Data Processing Agreement. Tailored onboarding includes workforce-management experts and integration specialists. Peopleware GmbH is based in Düsseldorf, Germany. Pricing is tailored to the selected solution and available on request.
