The Challenge: A Lack of Remote Work Transparency
Zoran Lazic, founder of FatCat Coders, a software development company, knew that work flexibility leads to more engaged, happy, and productive employees.
Lazic envisioned a flexible workplace where employees could work on their terms. An environment where tasks successfully completed was the key metric, not a rigid 8-hour work day.
But, like most workplaces, constant distractions hindered productivity at FatCat Coders. Making matters worse, when FatCat Coders transitioned to remote work, company leaders lost visibility into workloads and capacity.
Remote work became messy. Keeping remote employees on task required constant, time-consuming check-ins. This hampered business growth and prevented the flexible, engaged workplace Lazic envisioned.
From Uncertainty to Clarity With the Help of Insightful
FatCat Coders’s managers tried traditional tracking tools without success. After a demo of Insightful, it was clear that Insightful would provide them with the full remote work visibility they’d been searching for.
The platform also enabled FatCat Coders managers to see workload capacity and productivity trends at a glance from their Insightful dashboard, and dig deeper through comprehensive reports.
And it was in Insightful’s reports where FatCat Coders struck gold.
FatCat Coders Unearths a Data Goldmine
Insightful’s work activity and technology usage reporting revealed some FatCat Coders employees completed their work in just six hours daily. The best practices of these employees were identified, then managers used them to coach other employees to work more efficiently.
This team-wide efficiency enables Lazic to offer all employees a flexible, six hour workday. Employees love this flexibility. They also choose when they work, and Insightful verifies work is getting done.
After four years using Insightful, FatCat Coders employees are more satisfied and productive, and the perk of flexibility helps attract talent.
Insightful's been a game-changer for us. The insights we get are priceless for planning and keeping everything running smoothly.
