Empuls is delivered as a fully managed SaaS cloud platform, hosted on AWS and Azure with ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II–compliant infrastructure, automatic quarterly updates, and no infrastructure management required from your organization.
Empuls is available exclusively as a SaaS cloud offering, which means your IT and People teams never need to provision servers, manage upgrades, or maintain underlying infrastructure. Xoxoday handles the full stack — from compute and storage to security patching and performance tuning — so your team can focus on running recognition programs, not managing software.
Cloud infrastructure and security
Empuls runs on enterprise-grade public cloud environments across AWS and Azure. Both deployments follow ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II–compliant processes, covering access controls, data encryption in transit and at rest, incident response, and continuous monitoring. High availability is built into the architecture by design, with redundant infrastructure ensuring that your recognition programs, reward catalogs, and engagement workflows remain accessible without unplanned downtime.
Automatic updates with zero disruption
Empuls releases product updates on a quarterly cadence, with major feature enhancements shipped biannually. All updates are applied automatically in the background — no manual patching, no maintenance windows that affect your employees. Integrations with tools your teams already use, including Slack, Microsoft Teams, Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, and Darwinbox, stay current without requiring any action from your IT department.
For example, when Empuls ships an enhancement to its AI-powered engagement surveys or introduces milestone-based recognition workflows, that capability becomes available to all customers simultaneously — with no version upgrade ticket or scheduled downtime notice required.
Roadmap access and co-creation
Empuls gives customers direct visibility into the product roadmap and the ability to participate in roadmap planning discussions. Your People and HR leadership can flag priorities — localization requirements, new HRMS integration partners, or workflow enhancements — and have those inputs considered in upcoming release cycles. Roadmap access is a structured collaboration channel, not a passive communication; your feedback actively shapes what Empuls ships next.
What this means for your team
Your HR team gets a continuously improving platform without the operational overhead of a self-hosted system. Your IT team avoids the cost and complexity of maintaining enterprise software on private infrastructure. And your employees benefit from new features and a stable experience backed by a compliant, resilient cloud foundation — all on a predictable update schedule with no disruption to day-to-day use.
