HiBob Customer SugarCRM Achieves Remarkable 226% ROI and Wins Nucleus Research ROI Award

SugarCRM achieves major cost savings of over 15% on software and support expenses with HiBob’s HCM solution ‘Bob’,  boosting financial performance and enabling strategic resource allocation.

New York, US & London, UK – 21 July 2023 – HiBob, the company behind ‘Bob’, the modern HR platform that powers productivity, engagement and retention, is proud to announce that its valued customer, SugarCRM, has been honored with a prestigious Nucleus ROI Award. 

SugarCRM, provider of the award-winning AI-driven CRM platform, achieved an exceptional 226 percent return on investment (ROI) upon the implementation of HiBob’s innovative Human Capital Management (HCM) solution.

With its small HR team previously operating on a large and complex HCM system, SugarCRM recognized the need for a streamlined and user-friendly HR solution that would enable them to leverage automation, enhance operational visibility, and improve communication across the organization.

HiBob emerged as the ideal choice, offering powerful capabilities while maintaining a strong emphasis on ease of use.

Nucleus Research, a leading provider of ROI-focused technology research and analysis, conducted an in-depth study to evaluate the impact of HiBob’s implementation on SugarCRM’s operations. The findings were remarkable, demonstrating substantial financial gains and numerous operational improvements.

With HiBob’s HCM in place, SugarCRM successfully reduced its year-over-year software and support costs by more than 15 percent, leading to significant savings. This cost optimization not only enhanced the company’s financial performance but also allowed them to redirect resources to other critical areas of their business.

Moreover, the implementation of HiBob enabled SugarCRM to avoid SOC 2 non-compliance risks, ensuring the highest standards of security and data privacy. The robust features and comprehensive compliance capabilities of HiBob’s platform provided the business with peace of mind, protecting sensitive employee information and reducing compliance-related risks.

Beyond financial gains and compliance benefits, the adoption of HiBob transformed SugarCRM’s HR and finance departments, leading to remarkable productivity increases. The intuitive nature of the system empowered employees to accomplish tasks more efficiently, freeing up valuable time for strategic initiatives. By automating time-consuming administrative processes, SugarCRM’s HR team was able to focus on strategic initiatives, further driving the company’s growth.

The implementation of HiBob also had a profound impact on the company’s company culture. With a global, remote-first workforce, SugarCRM recognized the importance of fostering a cohesive and inclusive culture. HiBob’s modern and collaborative features facilitated improved communication, increased transparency, and strengthened connections among employees, regardless of their geographical locations. This renewed sense of company culture played a crucial role in driving employee engagement and satisfaction.
