Movista Unveils Next-Generation Mobile App for Frontline Retail Teams

Movista, Inc., the company transforming how work gets done in retail, was listed in Gartner 2021 Market Guide for Retail Workforce Management Applications.¹ Movista was listed as a Representative Vendor in the Retail Workforce Management segment.

“We believe being recognized by Gartner is continued validation for our team and our solution.

We solve top challenges for retail leaders, consumer packaged goods manufacturers, and retail service providers.

We think this announcement further confirms the focus of our work is in the right place.” said Stan Zylowski, CEO, Movista.

Gartner Market Guide defines a WFM vendor as “a vendor that usually addresses the needs of multiple industries”. The guide also provides recommendations for “CIOs seeking workforce management applications to support retail digital transformation and innovation”:

“Build and connect the organization’s WFM strategy with HCM, digital workplace and other critical application strategies in order to link investment in WFM to broader organizational initiatives”.
Identify and invest in transformational capabilities that have the potential for the greatest positive impact on both costs and frontline experiences, such as AI-based labor forecasting to increase scheduling productivity and accuracy”.

Today Movista stands as the world’s first and only platform to enable collaboration between retailers, brands, and service providers. The solution can integrate with critical business systems including payroll, HCM, and ERP software. Movista provides users with core functionality for labor scheduling, task management, communications, and analytics. Through a single solution, internal and external teams can collaborate and manage all work, analyzing output of work within a shared view. This advanced level of connection has allowed customers of Movista to significantly reduce labor costs and optimize scheduling of workforces.

The Market Guide “defines a market and explains what clients can expect it to do in the short term. With the focus on early, more chaotic markets, a Market Guide does not rate or position vendors within the market, but rather more commonly outlines attributes of representative vendors that are providing offerings in the market to give further insight into the market itself”.
