Top tips for software implementations
Let's delve into some top tips for software implementations. The best software implementations involve ongoing partnerships between the vendor and internal stakeholders.
Use this evaluation criteria to help identify quality partners right from the first interaction.
Stakeholder involvement
When it comes to stakeholder involvement, ensure you involve key stakeholders within your organization to understand the specific requirements for each group.
Have a clear idea of the use case, must-haves, and an ideal price point for the solution. Identify who should be part of meetings with potential partners.
Vendor evaluation
See the products in action. Ask questions in demo sessions to determine which partners will best match your budget and support your use case, accompanying you on the hybrid work journey.
Finding a solution that will stand the test of time is key in this stage of the process.
Training and onboarding
Ensure that the partner will offer training and onboarding, not just for you, but for your employees as well. This will boost internal adoption and ensure that you are able to roll out the product successfully with the right support network.
Pilot testing
Test out the product first to ensure it will work well in your office environment, integrate with your existing tech stack, and make necessary adjustments before a full-scale rollout.
Choose a key location within your real estate portfolio to test the product. Then, take any learnings or areas for improvement and apply them systematically across the rest of the offices.
Feedback loop
Establish a feedback loop and encourage users to provide ongoing feedback on their software experience. Use this feedback to make continuous improvements to internal processes and pass it along to your customer success partner to improve the product.
