Zipline Recognized In 2021 Gartner® Market Guide for Employee Communications Applications

Zipline, the leading operations platform for distributed teams, today announced its inclusion in the 2021 Gartner Market Guide for Employee Communications Applications.

Amid a particularly hectic and unpredictable year for retailers, Zipline has helped retailers navigate the pandemic, stay nimble and enable the field through better communication. The 2021 Gartner Market Guide for Employee Communications states, “Employee communications applications keep the workforce engaged and informed on organizational needs and activities. Application leaders should use this Market Guide to understand market trends, inform vendor investment decisions and anticipate how technology is evolving.”

“We consider that our inclusion in this Gartner Market Guide affirms the incredible work our team is doing to help leading retailers streamline communication in order to inform and implement business priorities and strategic initiatives,” said Zipline CEO and Co-Founder Melissa Wong. “We know the powerful role that communication plays in helping retailers meet their business goals and are thrilled to be recognized in this important report.” 

By giving employees the information they need to execute to brand standards, Zipline enables an entire fleet of locations, leaders, and teams to move as quickly and consistently as possible. As a result, customers, like Torrid, L.L.Bean, and Allbirds, see the industry’s best execution rates.
