interviewee

“The partnership with goFLUENT is always positive and trusting. It has produced results in language training. The nice collaboration makes it not only a B2B service but also makes it seem as if we’ve known each other for a long time…

With suppliers like goFLUENT, companies can leverage their entire Learning IT. An LMS is there to channel processes in an easier and more structured way so that the ROI pays off. If you later fall back on Excel or have to settle payments sporadically, then you have to ask yourself why you have an ERP system if processes are not automated from end to end. “
