“We weren’t quite sure what the possibilities were with this kind of tech transformation, and I am pleasantly surprised at how quick and easy the Atlas platform is in refining searches and enabling me to find the information I need within seconds. A lot of that has come from the workshops we’ve had with ClearPeople.” ”

Time saved
Time spent searching for and retrieving information went from hours to seconds.
Improved productivity
People rapidly switched to using Atlas because they know it helps them find what they want and improves productivity.
Relevant information
In addition to being quickly retrieved, information can now be targeted to those it is most relevant to and tracked to ensure it is read.
Weightman's previous platform for communicating and sharing data had become outdated and was no longer fit for purpose. The firm agreed that they needed to continue their investment in technology in order to improve the efficiency in how the firm collaborates and shares information.
