    Jay Canfield, Director of Professional Services at C1, described the initial struggle with managing skills using an unwieldy Excel spreadsheet. The spreadsheet was difficult to update, prone to errors, and not scalable for the company\u2019s growing needs. C1 required a robust, centralized system to track and manage the skills of their engineers efficiently.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
