When asked how ForceManager 5500 has improved his work, Noel says “I am more time-efficient as ForceManager reduces the sales process timeline with the intellectual data already embedded in the software.” The automation of mundane tasks and better organization allows PWS to focus on the quality and attention given to prospects and clients.
