And the Wavie Winners Are…

wavie awards

The inaugural 2015 Wavie Award winners are in!

Our customers accomplish amazing things every day, and we’re so proud that they have selected LiquidPlanner as a key technology to help them plan, organize, and ultimately deliver great work. As a way to recognize and share their success with others, we’re thrilled to launch the first LiquidPlanner Wavie Awards. The goal of this award program is to recognize a handful of LiquidPlanner customers that are not only making waves within their industry but are also true LiquidPlanner power users.

Before we get to the inaugural list of 2015 LiquidPlanner Wavie winners, let’s quickly touch on the overall process. First, we created an internal group of judges which consisted of members from marketing, sales, customer success, engineering, and our leadership team to lead the search and evaluate winners for each Wavie category.

This group received an initial list of more than 1,200 possible winners and narrowed it down to just 10 candidates across five categories. From there, the judges carefully reviewed and evaluated each deployment, paying specific attention to key success factors like speed of deployment, communication and collaboration, the use of data and analytics to drive business, and the use of forward-thinking project management methodologies, like agile and ranged estimation.

In the end, the judges selected five winners, each of whom embodied the very example of how to use LiquidPlanner to drive their businesses forward.

Congratulations to all of our winners!

In just one year, Cascade Microtech has successfully onboarded more than 150 team members, even recently taking a trip to Germany to train new employees on LiquidPlanner. Cascade Microtech took a risk by standardizing their large team on LiquidPlanner, and we congratulate them on winning this award!
