“Point Sur helped my team plan our transition to using Salesforce to manage network relations. They provided a network rollout strategy and change management expertise specific to technology integrations in emergency food networks. One key deliverable was a plan to operationalize a critical compliance process for our staff with how-to documentation for our instance of Salesforce. We would highly recommend Point Sur for supporting your next project.”
