The Challenge: Escalating Project Management Costs

TechCorp, a rapidly growing software development company with 150+ employees, was struggling with their project management tool costs. As their team grew, so did their monthly bills.

"We were paying $2,500 per month just for project management software. Every new hire meant another $15/month, and it was becoming unsustainable," says Sarah Chen, CTO at TechCorp.

The Breaking Point

By Q3 2023, TechCorp was managing:

  • ๐Ÿ—๏ธ 45 active projects
  • ๐Ÿ‘ฅ 150+ team members
  • ๐Ÿ“Š 2,000+ tasks weekly
  • ๐Ÿ’ฐ $30,000 annual software costs
