What is Engage?
Empower your HR team to improve employee engagement
Engage is a comprehensive business solution built to help you holistically understand and improve employee engagement.

Je pense qu' "engager" est trop littéral et un faux-ami ici. Qu'en pensez-vous ?
Toutes les suggestions pertinentes et créatives sont les bienvenues.
Merci.

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Clarification Pour clarifier ma réponse à BDF "Engage is not a verb"... ici, je voulais dire que dans le contexte de la phrase "Engage is a comprehensive business solution..." et comme l'a si pertinemment fait remarquer Cathy, il s'agit d'une marque déposée, d'un nom commercial. C'est pq "S'engager" m'a paru un faux ami. Désolée si je vous ai embrouillés et si je me suis mal exprimée... Bonne fin de semaine et merci à tous!

@ Asker As BDF points out, your question is muddled — but not difficult!
Your text contains 2 nouns, yet your proposed translation suggest a verb.
Neither of the noun issues is in any way difficult — the only think that complicates your question is your apparent confusion between nouns and a verb.

Reclassification of Question Can someone in charge please put the question back into the PRO field. If it was that easy, and non thought-provoking, I would not be taking the time to post it here! Thank you.

Part of Speech > VERB "Engage" is not a verb. I provided the "engagement" excerpt to provide you all for more context. Thank you. :))
B D Finch Apr 23, 2019:
Part of speech? You have posted the noun "Engage" as your header term, and that certainly looks like a proper noun. However you then suggest the verb "engager". So, perhaps what you really wanted was a translation for "employee engagement"? However, "engagement" is also a noun, not a verb. So, your question is rather muddled.

Engage

Il semble que ce soit un nom propre ici (le nom de la solution), donc je ne le traduirais pas.

agree Tony M : When used as the noun, yes; but Asker also seems to be asking at the same time about 'engagement'?
