"Our team members are scattered across North America, so to manage them I needed a centralized system they could all access," explained Operations Director Marc De Jordy. "Because OpenAir is delivered through the Web, it lets us collaborate easily. I was also able to roll it out to the team quickly and can add new team members as soon as they come on board. After an extensive evaluation of the alternatives, we determined that OpenAir was the only solution that was both powerful and sophisticated enough to meet our needs and intuitive enough that team members would not require extensive training," De Jordy concluded.

Other vendors selected by da Vinci include the law firm Blake, Cassels & Graydon, LLP and the software company Omnivex Corporation.
