The Challenge
After experiencing exponential growth, Funnl’s management expressed that monitoring the productivity of their remote workforce was a pressing challenge. As a remote-first organization, management lacked clear visibility into how their employees spent work hours and what tasks were being performed. This created gaps in resource management and made it difficult to identify possible productivity bottlenecks. Manual methods to track productivity fell short. As a result, managers spent a considerable amount of time ensuring team accountability, diverting them from more strategic initiatives. To optimize resource management, Funnl needed a robust solution to provide real-time productivity insights into their teams, ensuring they were spending their time efficiently and effectively.
