If you have been using spreadsheets/documents, ask yourself the following questions. 

Limitations of spreadsheets/documents 

  • How do you track the real-time progress of jobs in your organization?
  • Are your spreadsheets user-friendly while collaborating with multiple users?
  • Will you be able to view the recent updates to your sheet?
  • Can you hide confidential information from specific users?
  • Will you be able to send automatic notifications to users once a job is assigned to them?
