Save up to 95 minutes on file management with Mindquarry.

Activity	Time savings	Details
Managing document versions	5 min	Right now, Jack is working on a calculation for a huge industrial plant in South Europe. On a frequent basis he receives requirement changes updated by the field agent. These requirement changes require large amounts of recalculation. In the past, Jack would have had to create backup versions to revert to if an error had to occur. But since his company is running Mindquarry, Jack no longer needs to create backup copies any more - the document management area does it for him. He now saves himself 5 minutes.
Tracking changes	10 min	At several stages, Jack sends the field agent a note to review the recalcuation. With Mindquarry's version tracking, both Jack and the field agent can easily track the changes and give each other feedback. This saves both Jack and the field agent another 10 minutes.
Synchronizing files	15 min	Because of the easy-to-use synchronization mechanism of the document management area, there is no need to send documents via e-mail. This reduces traffic and storage costs and makes finding documents easier. Jack, the field agent(s) and other colleagues are seeing consistent shared files.
Work offline	30 min	The files are not reliant upon a network connection, the field agent can work while traveling and can synchronize his documents via internet when on the road. He saves himself 30 minutes from hunting for the latest version of the shared document(s).
Merging document versions	35 min	Jill, the team secretary, has prepared a formal offering for the customer based on Jack's recalculation. While she is working on it, Jack changes the contact informaton in the offering. As Mindquarry allows for parallel editing, he does not have to wait for Jill to finish her work which saves her 30 minutes and does not have to merge the changes manually which saves another 5 minutes.
TOTAL:	95 min	The overall time savings for this scenario is 95 minutes.
