Lumesse ETWeb review by Inspector Jones

Lumesse ETWeb is a good option to shortlist, if you’re looking for a web-based Talent Management solution. The product was formerly known as StepStone ETWeb, before being renamed in 2011.

Lumesse ETWeb is a Talent Management suite, including Human Resource Management, Learning Management, Performance, Compensation, Skills/Competency, 360 Degree Feedback, Career/Succession Planning, and HR Analytics.

Before you choose Lumesse, here are the key things you need to know.

First, a strength in Europe. Lumesse has a strong presence in the Europe, while many other vendors focus on North America. If you are based in the EU, you may find that Lumesse has a good understanding of your business environment and compliance.

Second, we like that Lumesse have ISO27001 (the international standard for information security) certification for TalentLink (their recruitment solution), and we’d like to see this for ETWeb too. Lumesse do have BS25999 certification, which does show they good business continuity planning.

Third, Lumesse has across-the-board talent management functionality that we believe will suit most organisations. However, be aware that the Talent Management market is strong at the moment, with large improvements in functionality from many vendors over the past couple of years. I recommend you perform a more detailed feature comparison, tailored to your specific needs.

For medium and larger businesses, I recommend you put Lumesse on your shortlist for Talent Management.
