How frustrating are your IT systems?
We've all been there - but seriously, imagine...

The apps on your phone never needed another update, every job you worked in used the same software, and you never had to learn to use anything new on the computer ever again.

That sounds SO good doesn't it!?

Well in today’s world, digital transformation is part of everyone’s digital experience and it's here to stay. It's constantly changing and updating and somehow we have to keep up.

It can mean that frustrations with IT are hard to avoid or become an on-going nightmare!
TOP 7 FRUSTRATIONS

1 - The tool is slow and outdated (need we say more)

2 - Confusing design (doesn't meet the needs of the user/s)

3 - Too many systems to manage (multiple sign-in issues)

4 - Lack of integration (seriously who has time to input data manually)

5 - Complicated functionality (it's not straight forward to use)

6 - Constantly updating/changing (getting the right tools to begin with to minimise disruption)

AND finally...

7 - Limited guidance and inaccessible support (wow just add more problems)
We'd love our upcoming expert webinar speakers to curb your frustrations!
But we need to know what they are...
