6. Capacity

Capacity

Founded: 2017

Also honored in:

“We expect a lot out of our technology, and for good reason: today’s technology is capable of a lot. Next-day shipping for the birthday gift we nearly forgot, any film title under the sun available for streaming, hailing a ride in a foreign country with the click of a button—our lives as consumers can be pretty convenient.

When we step into the office, however, we step back years, sometimes decades into the past.

Team members are forced to waste costly hours each and every day searching for knowledge that’s spread across dozens of apps, stuck inside thousands of documents, spreadsheets, and web pages, and locked away in the minds of their colleagues. This never-ending search reduces team member capacity, engagement, and overall satisfaction, and is simply unacceptable in today’s workplace.”
