Core offering

Adelyce provides a SaaS software suite of four complementary applications — Ma Vigie (payroll quality audit), Atelier salarial (payroll mass budget preparation and projection), Atelier social (social data and RSU reporting), and Mon observatoire (peer benchmarking) — designed for French public sector employers including communes, intercommunalities, departments, regions, public hospitals (FPH), SDIS, CCAS/CIAS, and centres de gestion. Applications are sold as annual subscriptions priced on client payroll mass rather than user count, with all data hosted in France on ISO 27001 certified infrastructure.

Product overview

Adelyce offers a software suite of four complementary applications for public sector payroll and HR management: Ma Vigie (payroll quality audit and control), Atelier salarial (budget preparation, monitoring, and projection of payroll mass), Atelier social (social data production and RSU reporting), and Mon observatoire (benchmarking against peers). These applications are delivered as SaaS, powered by a proprietary mathematical engine with exclusive algorithms trained on data representing 30% of France's territorial public employees. The suite supports both the Territorial Public Function (FPT) and Hospital Public Function (FPH). Campus Adelyce provides training, and the Adelyce Observatory offers open-access national payroll trend data.

Broad incumbents

• Workday: Global HCM cloud platform expanding into European public sector and large enterprise HR. Represents the long-tail competitive risk of broad HCM platforms adding payroll piloting analytics.
• Sopra Steria (Sopra HR / HR Access): Large French IT services and software group with a dedicated HR suite (HR Access/Sopra HR) sold extensively to French public sector employers. Significantly broader portfolio but competes directly for the same payroll piloting and HR analytics budgets.
• Sage: Global HR/payroll SaaS incumbent with strong French market presence via Sage Paie. Competes at the broader payroll processing layer that Adelyce's piloting software complements.
• ADP: Global payroll and HCM leader with established French operations. Provides the underlying payroll processing infrastructure whose outputs Adelyce ingests via XHL/DSN, and could vertically integrate piloting analytics.
• Oracle HCM: Global HCM cloud platform competing for large enterprise and public sector HR contracts. Represents the upper-end incumbent threat to which Adelyce's niche analytics could either complement or be displaced by.

Direct peers

• Nibelis: French payroll and HR SaaS provider serving SMB and mid-market employers in France. Comparable SaaS subscription model and direct overlap with Adelyce's payroll piloting and HR analytics value proposition.
• Cegid: Leading French HR/payroll SaaS vendor with dedicated public-sector payroll offerings (Cegid Public). Closest head-to-head competitor to Adelyce within the French territorial and hospital payroll market.
• HR Path: French HR consulting and SaaS integrator serving mid-market and public sector employers. Comparable target customer base and overlapping payroll/HR advisory-plus-software model.
• Kelio: French HR and time-management SaaS vendor (Bodet's software division) serving mid-market and public sector employers in France. Comparable vertical software focus and customer overlap.

Emerging players

• Lucca: French HR SaaS suite (time management, leave, expenses, performance) targeting mid-market French employers. Smaller scale than Adelyce but partial product overlap in HR data and analytics for French organizations.
