Factorial's software includes Absence management features, a Document management system, and built-in analytics. According to Select Software Reviews, Factorial is "devoted to solving the daily challenges of HR teams while placing a strong emphasis on data security."[1]
Factorial has seen rapid growth since its founding in 2016.[2] The company's breakthrough success came during the COVID-19 pandemic, when HR professionals were struggling with layoffs and furloughs. Factorial made its software available for free for a period of time while restrictions during the pandemic were in place. This led to new interest from companies that had never used cloud-based services before, and had previously only used manual methods for document management and other HR processes.[3]
Factorial received a Series B investment round of $80 million, followed by a Series C investment round of $120 million in 2022, raising the company's valuation to $1 billion and granting it unicorn status.[4][5]
