ClickUp Wins 2025 Brandon Hall Excellence Award in Talent Forecasting for Strategic Use of PeopleInsight by HireRoad
SAN DIEGO, Calif., September 25, 2025—ClickUp, the first Converged AI Workspace, has been honored with a Bronze award in the 2025 Excellence Awards presented by The Brandon Hall Group™, in the Talent Forecasting category. The innovative company received this recognition specifically for its strategic implementation of the PeopleInsight by HireRoad people analytics platform.

ClickUp, known as “the everything app” for AI and workplace productivity, was on a journey toward integrated talent data, driven by a clear gap. They lacked a reliable and configurable tool for recruiting analytics. Recognizing the need to become a more data-driven organization with greater visibility into recruiting performance, ClickUp expanded its partnership with PeopleInsight. The team had already been using PeopleInsight for several years to analyze HR data, streamline reporting, and uncover workforce insights—proving its value as a strategic partner.
To strengthen its talent strategy, ClickUp began leveraging PeopleInsight to include data from Greenhouse, its Applicant Tracking System (ATS). This integration gave both HR and TA teams access to real-time, trusted insights in one centralized location. Branded, audience-specific dashboards made it easy to communicate performance, align with business goals, and support cross-functional planning.
By analyzing specific data points within PeopleInsight, ClickUp is now able to forecast how long it will take to fill upcoming roles, identify where candidates tend to get stuck, and proactively address inefficiencies in the hiring funnel. This has allowed for more accurate capacity planning, more consistent timelines for hiring managers, and a better overall candidate experience.
Thanks to PeopleInsight, we’ve been able to take a deeper dive into our talent forecasting and better understand the time it takes to move candidates through the hiring process. We’re now a more agile organization when it comes to hiring, with a greater sense of key analytics related to our recruiters, their performance, and how they’re leveraged to support our staffing needs. We’re proud that our efforts have been recognized by The Brandon Hall Group.
