You may feel frustrated that your company isn’t growing as quickly as itcould be, considering the potential market share. Or, you may bestruggling to keep up with growth, and have more work enquiries comingin than your administrative staff can book and record. Either way,automation can provide solutions to these problems, once you haveidentified where to apply it effectively.

Gathering Data

In the background, every case, its cost and the timetaken, as well as notes and correspondence, are being updatedcontinuously. With this data, you can generate charts and graphs, exportspreadsheets, or look back using the detailed search function.
