At the small end of the market there are a number of companies which are growing at a very strong rate.

Three small cap tech shares that investors might want to get better acquainted with are listed below. Here's how they have been performing:

Bigtincan Holdings Ltd (ASX: BTH)

Bigtincan is a growing provider of enterprise mobility software. This software allows sales and service organisations to increase their sales win rates, reduce expenditures, and improve customer satisfaction. Bigtincan has been experiencing strong demand for its platform in 2020 from some major companies such as Nike and Red Bull. This led to it growing its annualised recurring revenue (ARR) by 53% year on year to $35.8 million in FY 2020. Pleassingly, more of the same is expected in FY 2021, with management providing guidance for ARR of $49 million to $53 million. This is still scratching at the surface of a sales engagement platform market estimated to be worth $6 billion a year by 2021.

ELMO Software Ltd (ASX: ELO)

ELMO is a cloud-based human resources and payroll software company. Its increasingly popular software streamlines a range of processes such as employee administration, recruitment, remuneration, and payroll through a single a unified platform. ELMO currently has operations in both the ANZ and UK markets, which management estimates are worth $2.4 billion and $6.8 billion per year, respectively. In FY 2021, ELMO is aiming to deliver ARR in the range of $72.5 million to $78.5 million. This will be up 31.6% to 42.4% from FY 2020's ARR of $55.1 million.

People Infrastructure Ltd (ASX: PPE)

People Infrastructure is a leading workforce management company. It provides innovative solutions to workforce challenges. Although the company was impacted by the pandemic in FY 2020, it was still able to deliver strong earnings growth. For the 12 months ended 30 June, the company reported normalised EBITDA of $26.4 million. This was up 49.2% on the prior corresponding period. And while it hasn't been able to provide guidance for FY 2021, management remains focused on driving growth both organically and inorganically.
