”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. It is so rare and I deeply appreciate that! I will reach out to a few other small schools in my area and let them know about your company!”
