Humanforce expands workforce management and payroll capability with Ento acquisition

Humanforce expands workforce management and payroll capability with Ento acquisition
October 31, 2022

Leading workforce management (WFM) solutions provider Humanforce has announced the completion of its acquisition of Ento, a WFM solution used for rostering shift management, time and attendance, leave and onboarding.

A significant step in Humanforce’s growth journey, the acquisition will enhance the Sydney-based company’s leadership position with frontline, roster-driven, shift-based workforces in the mid-market and enterprise segments, across a wide range of industry verticals.

Ento is used in 10,000 workplaces by more than 100,000 employees in key markets like retail, hospitality, facilities management, labour hire, child care, leisure, and more.

Companies that utilise Ento WFM solutions include World Vision, Medibank, Mecca, Bambini Early Learning Centres and Monash University.

Commenting on the acquisition, Humanforce Chief Executive, Clayton Pyne advised “the acquisition of Ento expands our scale and reach, reinforcing our commitment to the vision of making work easier and life better for deskless workers.

“We remain laser-focused on innovating in workforce management by bringing a modern, employee-centric solution to deskless workforces, which places the employee experience and talent at the core. Humanforce wants to play a critical role in helping businesses not only improve productivity, optimise costs and realise compliance confidence, but also help them strengthen their employee value proposition (EVP) in order to attract, engage and retain talent in an extremely tight labour market.”

The acquisition of Ento was borne from Humanforce’s second round of funding received from leading technology-focused private equity firm, AKKR in May 2022, to fuel company growth through acquisitions. Since AKKR’s incremental investment into Humanforce in May this year, the company has accelerated its growth rate further, delivering fiscal year-on-year SaaS bookings growth of 67%.

Humanforce will now help Ento customers achieve improved productivity, compliance confidence and cost control while fostering a more positive employee experience with workforce management technologies which are purpose-built for shift- and roster-driven (‘deskless’) workforces.
