History
PeopleDoc by Ultimate Software started as Novapost in 2007, on the campus of the HEC Business School in Paris as an idea to provide a unified digital file management system.
In 2009, the HR community took notice of the consumer document vault and asked the co-founders to design a product specifically for HR. PeopleDoc then developed cloud technology to assist HR administrative staff in their goals to improve efficiency, reduce operating costs, and automate processes.
In 2012, PeopleDoc raised €1.5M in Seed funding from Alven Capital and Kernel Capital Partners.[4]
In 2014, PeopleDoc expanded its human resources software service worldwide and raised a $17.5 million Series B round led by Accel Partners.[5]
In August 2015, PeopleDoc sponsored the Employee File Management Survey, a national HR Daily Advisor Research/BLR survey, focused on the intersection of technology, HR, and how HR professionals today are handling their workforce’s important documents.[6]
In September 2015, PeopleDoc raised a $28 Million Series C round of investment led by Paris-based Eurazeo while PeopleDoc’s existing investors — Accel Partners, Alven Capital and Kernel Capital Partners — participated as well.[7]
In 2018, the France-based technology company was acquired by Ultimate Software for $300 million in cash and stock.[8]
Software
PeopleDoc by Ultimate Software has four main components to their HR service delivery.

PeopleDoc's Employee Portal and Case Management enables companies to automate HR processes, ensure consistency and regulatory compliance, and improve employee satisfaction. Last but not least, their Employee Onboarding portal allows for electronic documents and electronic signatures via a company branded portal.[9]
