About
criterionhcm.com now redirects to hcm.sage.com. A browser session gets past the 403 that blocks automated fetches: the page is titled "Sage HCM (formerly Criterion HCM)" and case-study copy repeats the same "(formerly Criterion)" framing — an explicit, primary-source-confirmed rebrand, not just a redirect. One case study also refers to "Sage HCM (PerfectSoftware)", suggesting Criterion HCM was itself a prior name for PerfectSoftware before Sage's acquisition. The product is active and growing (650+ enterprise customers cited on the page), not discontinued — only the brand name changed.
