High-quality CRM is an important tool to run a successful professional services business. Agileday integrates with the CRM of your choice.

Plenty! This is part of almost every onboarding process and have already consolidated numerous systems.

It is a common scenario, and joining Agileday presents a fantastic opportunity for improvement. Often, the reason for poor data quality lies in the fact that previous tools prioritized numbers over people. Consequently, those responsible for data upkeep do not see the value in maintaining it, leading to neglect.

When the data is interconnected, the entire process benefits from accurate updates (e.g., improving skills results in better recommendations). Rest assured, we will address data quality issues, and Agileday will assist in maintaining high data quality standards from now onwards.

We will continue to provide excellent support for you. Moving forward, you will have the same dedicated customer success officer assisting you. Expect a fast response time within our chat/Slack channel (averaging 8 minutes) and comprehensive documentation to guide you through in different situations.

The cost is based on a recurring SaaS fee that is determined by the number of people in your operations. The fee is tailored to your size and chosen extensions. The pricing is highly competitive, with a payback period as short as a few months. Additionally, the onboarding fee is customized according to the estimated work effort needed.

No. We always send invoices.

The most common billing cycle is 3 months.

Frequently, Agileday replaces existing tools and eliminates those costs – sometimes even covering the initial investment. Within a short period, often just one quarter, you'll notice a decrease in manual tasks and an increase in operational efficiency. Next, you can observe the impact on key performance indicators like win rates, utilization, and employee satisfaction/retention. These changes typically become apparent a few quarters into implementation. In the long run, the value comes from increased speed, better talent acquisition, and improved business outcomes.

In theory no but in practice, we have discovered that the value is not as apparent in companies with fewer than 20 employees compared to larger organizations. We would be delighted to assess the value for your company with you.

No. The platform is designed for high scalability and we have tested it with thousands of users in a single instance.

We prioritize data processing and sensitivity with great care, maintaining high standards when accessing and handling data. The data processing procedures are outlined in a Data Processing Agreement (DPA), which will be included in the Agileday agreement.

We implement a comprehensive range of measures to guarantee the highest level of security for our customers. Within our team, there is a dedicated security officer who oversees and tracks the progress. Our security measures include training the entire team on best practices, implementing clear access restrictions, providing 24/7 monitoring, and adhering to strict security policies on a daily basis.
