Employee experience just got a serious upgrade for Workday users.
Semos Cloud, a global provider of employee experience technology, has been named an official Workday Innovation Partner, unlocking new ways for HR teams to integrate real-time recognition, internal communications, and talent development directly into their Workday Human Capital Management (HCM) environment.
While many companies talk about employee experience, Semos Cloud is putting it into action where it counts—inside the very tools that manage how work gets done.
Why This Partnership Matters
Workday HCM is a heavyweight in enterprise HR tech—used by organizations to streamline everything from workforce planning to talent analytics. But like many robust systems, it can benefit from lighter, more agile extensions that close the gap between data and day-to-day interaction.
That’s where Semos Cloud comes in. Through modular, quick-to-deploy extensions, Workday users can now easily layer in three experience-critical capabilities:
-
Recognition & Rewards: Peer, manager, and milestone-driven recognition programs with real-time integration—and a no-markup global reward catalog with 100,000+ redemption options.
-
Employee Communications: Multilingual, targeted campaigns to promote Total Rewards, company updates, and change initiatives—delivered at scale and with consistency.
-
Talent Development & Feedback: Continuous feedback loops, nudges for learning, and engagement programs aligned with values and goals—all embedded into the flow of work.
It’s a strategic upgrade that doesn’t require companies to rip and replace their existing HCM stack—just extend it where it’s needed most.
“Employee experience is no longer a separate initiative—it has to be part of how work gets done,” said Filip Misovski, CEO of Semos Cloud. “Through our partnership with Workday, customers can integrate recognition, communication, and development into daily workflows, reinforcing culture, improving alignment, and driving long-term retention.”
The Bigger Picture: From Transactional to Experiential HCM
This move reflects a broader trend across enterprise HR: HCM systems are evolving from transactional systems of record to experiential systems of engagement.
With frontline burnout, retention woes, and culture fragmentation on the rise, HR teams are looking for solutions that turn intent into interaction—embedding values like recognition, development, and communication into everyday touchpoints.
Semos Cloud’s plug-in architecture aligns well with that need, offering a path to boost HCM adoption and effectiveness without overhauling existing infrastructure.
It also echoes a pattern we’re seeing across the HRtech landscape: large platforms like Workday, SAP, and Oracle are increasingly opening their ecosystems to specialized innovators that can provide modular, high-impact capabilities—from AI coaching bots to real-time feedback engines.
Semos Cloud’s inclusion in the Workday Innovation Partner program cements its position in that category.
For Workday customers, the new partnership with Semos Cloud offers a low-friction way to embed real employee experience into the backbone of HR operations.
And for the HR tech sector at large, it’s another sign that the future of HCM is experiential, not just operational—where engagement, culture, and development aren’t tracked after the fact but actively delivered through the systems teams already use.
