In H1, leadership had poor visibility of hiring activity and status, leading to missed targets. It got ugly!

One client commented: “Once deployed, we had a very high-level success right out of the gate. Our director met with the CEO of the company and used the [Smartsheet] dashboard to review the current status of our business impacts."I love Smartsheet because it's so flexible and configurable and a solution can be delivered in a fraction of the time and at a fraction of the cost of traditional IT solutions. Plus, it's easy to reconfigure for changing needs of the business. Most of all, it allows me to be a Program Manager, Business Analyst and Developer all at the same time! Show less
