Kilgoris Project COO

“I think it’s a no brainer because for the full suite of tools, I think the total yearly cost is in the ballpark of if I wanted to hire a single operations person in-house to do some of the stuff full time.”

Director of Operations of Forecast Foundation

“I don’t think of them as a vendor, I look at them as a resource and a support system for us. I think of them as part of my team. It is almost as if they are a limb of the Squash Zone.”
