Our clients love using StrategyGPS to move their plan off a spreadsheet and into action

Before we started using StrategyGPS, we managed our strategic plan with a spreadsheet. We had difficulty executing our plan and reporting progress to the board. Now, StrategyGPS is the tool by which we drive execution. It has made it much easier, not just in the initial development of the plan, but also in the follow-up, execution, and reporting to the board. It has made us so much more effective.
