Known as a long-standing Microsoft partner and the leading ISV in France for many years, Neocase is now a part of Microsoft's digital Workplace strategy.

A 100% digital employee experience With the chatbot, Neo, Neocase can offer HR services that are available 24/7 and accessible from anywhere. Whether the employee is at the office, at home or abroad, he will always be able to access HR services via the Teams mobile application. They can simply ask a question, create a request if the chatbot answer is not sufficient, and track or update an existing request directly in the app. Beyond offering a 100% digital employee experience to their employees, companies can reduce the time spent by HR answering employees' questions thanks to the self-service portal Neocase provides.

With this major announcement, Neocase has demonstrated its intention to invest massively in the solutions offered by Microsoft. Neocase plans to improve the experience and coverage of HR services by leaning on Microsoft, in an effort to intensify the use of services offered through cognitive services, and with regard to other fields such as blockchain, AI or Machine Learning. With this relationship, Microsoft provides Neocase with data scientists and experts to give Neocase a technological lead over its competitors. For Jérôme Ménard, CTO at Neocase, "We are proud to announce the integration of our Chatbot Neo within Microsoft Teams. This is a real acknowledgement of the work conducted by our teams, but also a great opportunity to accelerate our growth worldwide. Today, employees' habits are evolving.
