6 ways to prevent FOMO at HR Tech 2018
Est. Read Time: 3 min.
With 59 sessions, 400+ vendors and 9,000 people, you’re going to experience some degree of FOMO at HR Tech. Since you can’t do it all, you have to make sure you do it right. Here’s a list of tips for getting the most out of the show and the events you don’t want to miss out on:
1. Have a plan for exhibit hall hours
When you walk onto the HR Tech exhibit floor
You’ll be sure to get your cardio in at HR Tech—the exhibit hall is the size of 7 football fields! So, should you go up and down each aisle to cover the whole floor, or create a plan of attack beforehand?
We suggest you make a targeted list of the vendors you want to visit, check them out as early as possible, and go prepared with a list of important questions to ask about their HR solutions. Curious about HR Service Delivery technology? Plan to pay PeopleDoc a visit.

The procrastinator's guide to HR Technology Conference 2019
If you’re that rare HR conference-goer who already nailed down which sessions to attend, scheduled one-on-one meetings with vendors, and filled your evenings with networking events and dinners—we salute you. If you’re among the rest (er, most) who tend to tackle these items on the plane ride there, don’t stress. There’s still time to make the most of HR Technology Conference 2019 with our tips:
Conducting user research to build innovative HR technology solutions
September 27th was a big day for the Design and Product team at PeopleDoc. We visited the Shared Services Center of one of our customers. It was an opportunity for us to see our users at their workplace, talk with them and see how they use our HR technology solutions. Visits like this are always a great source of inspiration and insights. They allow us to better know the people we design for. But let me explain to you why knowing our users is so important and how it allows us to build better products.
How we incorporate product feedback at PeopleDoc
Here at PeopleDoc, I’m responsible for our Employee File Management and eSignature applications. Along with my colleagues on the Product team, who are in charge of other applications, we receive a lot of feedback about how to make our HR SaaS product better. Receiving feedback and feature requests is very valuable for us. We’re a relatively young company, still with a startup mindset, providing something new, an "HR Service Delivery Platform," and as a result our roadmap is strongly based on the conversations we have with our clients. However, for the person who submits the request, it can seem as though it’s not worth the effort if it doesn't lead to a change in the product.
