Vertical – Finance

FINANCE CASE STUDY

ABOUT THE CLIENT

This financial services firm was brought to us by their local IT partner after struggling with persistent issues with their previous provider. In fact, what cinched the deal was that we were able to quickly solve an Outlook plug-in problem that had evaded their prior provider for months. Our ability to quickly solve a long-painful problem, and the smoothness of their subsequent onboarding has turned this client into an Effortless advocate.
