For more than 20 years, Lucca has been developing SaaS solutions to increase employee efficiency and engagement. We address the main administrative and HR management issues: time and activities, expense reports, personnel administration, annual reviews, and measuring well-being at work.
Our solutions are used today by over one million users in all types of companies (from the chic hotel chain Accor to the surf brand Rip Curl) and particularly in those with strong growth developing internationally (Deezer, Michel & Augustin...).
While we operate in the very serious field of management tools, our work is guided by the belief that a management software doesn't have to be gray, ugly, or boring. That's why we attach great importance to the design of our interfaces and the user experience.
Our workforce, which currently stands at +650 people, keeps growing in France (Paris, Marseille, Nantes), but also in our new offices: Spain (Barcelona), Germany (Munich) and Switzerland (Geneva)!
