Trello Customer Testimonial

When COVID hit our workforce, Trello allowed us to take work that was driven by hard copy documents, and turn it into a 100% digital process. This allowed us to move our entire team from in-office to remote work without missing a beat.

Sprout Social

Introduction

This case study of Sprout Social is based on a September 2020 survey of Trello customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service.

We’ve had to reevaluate how we spend our time and with the use of Trello, can now limit the number of meetings we have regarding specific projects. We can turn to Trello for updates rather than hopping into meetings. "
