AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Oracle has been named a Leader in the 2026 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for HCM Suites for 1,000+ Employee Enterprises.

"Workforce dynamics are more challenging than we have seen in decades. To navigate this ongoing change, organizations need applications that can move beyond surfacing insights and increasingly take on the work required to achieve defined workforce outcomes," said Lewis Thompson, senior vice president of applications development, Oracle. "Oracle Fusion Cloud HCM meets this need by combining authoritative workforce data with Fusion Agentic Applications that can understand, reason, decide, coordinate, and execute defined objectives. This enables people to remain accountable for the outcomes, while the system increasingly takes on more of the process and work required to achieve them. We believe our position as a Leader in this report reflects our continued commitment to helping customers reshape how work gets done and improve business outcomes."
