The zvoove Group, a Germany-based provider of SaaS (software as a service) solutions for personnel (including temporary and permanent staff) announce the successful acquisition of Netherlands-headquartered Planbition, a cloud-based workforce management solution.

The group said the strategic move further solidifies zvoove's commitment to offering cutting-edge and innovative solutions to the temporary staffing industry.

Planbition serves customers such as YoungCapital, Olympia, Timing, Actief Werkt!, and Adecco worldwide. Customers use Planbition for planning and scheduling, time registration, as well as employee and customer self-service.

By integrating Planbition into its solution portfolio, zvoove strengthens its existing end-to-end software platforms, providing customers with additional competitive advantages by streamlining and digitising processes in planning and scheduling their internal and external workforce.

Planbition has customers across 16 countries, and the acquisition will additionally see Planbition’s product portfolio being offered in all European markets.

Oliver Muhr, zvoove CEO, said, "We are thrilled to welcome Planbition to zvoove. Planbition’s industry-leading solution, marquee customer base, and its focus on customer success align perfectly with our mission to provide cutting-edge end-to-end solutions to the temp staffing industry. With this acquisition, we will ultimately be able to offer all of our zvoove customers the leading workforce management and planning solution in all countries where zvoove operates.”

Planbition’s founder, Albert Schlangen, added, "We are super excited to become part of zvoove. This transaction will enable us to expand our reach and ensure that our leading workforce management solution is utilized to its full potential worldwide. We look forward to contributing to zvoove's continued success in the temp staffing market and are excited to join zvoove’s club of entrepreneurs with its cutting-edge solutions."

Paul van den Bosch, CEO of Pivoton (which zvoove acquired in 2022), said, “We have been working with Albert and his team for a long time to serve mutual customers, and Planbition is at the core of their operations. Adding Planbition to our offering in the Dutch market fulfils another important step in our mission to provide the leading end-to-end proposition to temp staffing agencies in the Netherlands.”

The price of the transaction was not disclosed.

Last month, the zvoove Group, announced that it successfully acquired HelloFlex, a provider of temporary staffing software in the Dutch market.
