This is not the first acquisition in that direction for Paylocity as the company purchased the VidGrid video conferencing platform in the spring, with similar technologies in demand during the COVID-19 lockdown period. The management of Paylocity possibly expects the positive dynamics of the market for remote jobs resources to continue.
This prediction is backed by many businesses’ plan to use remote workers more widely in the future to ensure the sustainability of their business. But, at the same time, management teams are looking at consolidating the number of solutions used daily to get their jobs done in today’s increasingly distributed digital workforce scenario. And that creates the need of all-in-one solutions for the same, an area in which PCTY is well versed with.
In 2020, PCTY remained positively dynamic as the stock quickly recovered the loss till the end of summer which it has made during spring sessions and established an uptrend.
