Boroondara, VIC adopts Pulse Project Management Module to keep up with growing council operations

The council previously used ad-hoc project tools and spreadsheets for budgeting and management tasks. Pulse Project Management Module required little customization or training as it easily integrated with the existing financial system. Council teams swapped spreadsheets for data management processes that work across departments. Single-site licenses along with a centralized storage structure reduce permission and access challenges.
