In this webinar, we discuss how the use of Professional Services Automation tools can help you streamline your workflow and cut through the noise.
Use PSA tools to create workflows to make sure that critical notifications are being taken care of right away while organizing other issues so that they can be repaired and responded to promptly.
Joining GFI MAX will be Len DiCostanzo, Senior Vice President of Business Development, from Autotask, and Eric Anthony, independent MSP and owner of Eric Anthony Group.
