Employee Tracker
The large Retail company was facing a significant challenge in managing and tracking our employees' working hours and needed a solution that would automate the process and ensure accuracy. We developed a system for counting employees' working hours. Employees simply approach the device upon arrival and the system automatically identifies them and records their check-in time.
DATAFOREST has an excellent workflow and provide constant and close communication. The team brings in a range of technical talent to address issues as they arise.
Performance Measurement
The Retail company struggled with controlling sales and monitoring employees' performance. We implemented a software solution that tracks sales, customer service, and employee performance in real-time. The system also provides recommendations for improvements, helping the company increase profits and improve customer service.
They easily understand industry-specific data and KPIs, and their efficiency as a team allows them to deliver results quickly.
Supply chain dashboard
The client needed to optimize the work of employees by building a data source integration and reporting system to use at different management levels. Ultimately, we developed a system that unifies relevant data from all sources and stores them in a structured form, which saves more than 900 hours of manual work monthly.
Their technical knowledge and skills offer great advantages. The entire team has been extremely professional.
