We have chosen a tandem of Vissto and Magnetic Ideas for our strategic projects of Job Architecture, Organizational Mobility, Payroll analyses and transformation to agile structure. Throughout these projects we appreciated especially the collaborative & professional cooperation with high added value, market insights and attractiveness of all outputs in terms of visual aspect & clarity.
We also appreciated the possibility to use several automating tools during these transformation projects which helped to involve all the managerial population, collect and analyze data from across the entire company.
As a follow-up to new Job Architecture, we purchased a license to HRESS, which in our opinion currently has no competition in the market, for the following reasons:
- clarity & comprehensibility of the methodology for all stakeholders
- possibility to bridge to other methodology, which we use globally
- efficiency & automation of related administration management
- valuable analyses, comparisons and clear visualizations
- possibility to involve managerial population in position evaluation process
- fast understanding & learning, know-how transfer to our HR

With Vissto, we have already carried out several successful projects in the field of modernization and standardization of HR architecture.
I especially appreciate the extent to which they combine the deep knowledge of HR environment with modern and straightforward data-driven approaches. Thanks to this, they have developed several unique tools, which now help us with the creation of job descriptions, the distribution of bonuses throughout the company or the salary analysis of individual teams.
In addition to their expertise, I also appreciate the high flexibility and commitment with which they solve all projects and at the same time a very pleasant way of communication. I can only recommend the cooperation with them.
