”Thanks to OPALS, 85-90% of our incoming back-office tasks are now smoothly handled automatically – against the former only 10%. We did not experience any troubling side-effects of any kind during/after implementation”
Bazh-GFx Academic Librarian”I can't believe that in an era like this I can still pick up the phone and get connected right away with people who are directly running the business and solve the problem right then and there.
