What were their pains?
Nurses and doctors are deskless workers which makes communication impossible.
Doctors almost never check their work email, trying to reach them is exhausting.
Employees need an internal communications software they can trust with classified information.
Things get busy and they don't have time to waste creating engaging email blasts.
They need excellent segmentation to reach the right people in a world-wide audience.
They would spend long hours creating email blasts, only for them to not be engaging enough.
Finding easy-to-edit templates is hopeless, they had to make everything from scratch.
The audience is constantly changing, which takes forever to update manually.
Troubleshooting takes up too much energy, they wanted customer service that is ready to help 24/7.
