Since we implemented Companion Rep, we increased the number of store visits and achieved shorter visit times. The display is very simple to use for representatives, allowing us to be much more efficient in stores and obtain better information capture for our company. The CIS team is highly professional and supported us throughout the project to ensure the implementation went smoothly and on schedule.
