    Benefits vs Excel for Classification Projects

    We often hear from potential clients about the roadblocks they face trying to use Microsoft Excel for their classification projects. 

    This video covers the issues in trying to manage the organization of the data in Excel and then sharing with key product managers to collect feedback.

    We demo easier ways to execute many of those Excel-challenged activities using DFR – our classification software and database.

    The start of the video provides an overview of DFR. We then get into reviewing the excel shortcomings many companies experience and how DFR helps mitigate them.
