BOSTON, April 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Reflexis, the leader in retail real-time execution and workforce management solutions, announced today that it has received a minority equity investment from Great Hill Partners, a Boston-based private equity firm focused on partnering with rapidly growing technology companies.

"Continuing to exceed our clients' expectations and deliver the innovative technology that they have come to expect from us requires investment in our employees and technology," he explained.
