Spreadsheets weren't built for research grants
Allocation data spread across dozens of spreadsheets. When the PI asks for a quick update, it takes hours to piece together an answer.
A postdoc on four projects, but working out their total commitment means opening multiple files and cross-referencing by hand.
Every reporting deadline, the same fire drill. Pulling numbers from scattered files and hoping nothing was missed.
Complete visibility, one platform
Every allocation in one place. When the PI asks for an update, you have the answer in seconds.
