Case Studies
Alejandro Adams is area manager for two movie theaters in Silicon Valley. A stable of 8 managers required frequent moves between locations, with each of them acting in full capacity as general manager at any given time. To empower each of the managers while giving them a way to communicate with all involved, Adams chose Freedcamp after testing several options.
Since then, everyone in the company uses Freedcamp. The system is now used for manager logs, staff schedules, facility maintenance task assignments, HR, and special event coordination to name just a few of the ways they use Freedcamp. Each manager took the initiative to learn and use the software, requiring minimal training. Further, Adams has now installed general managers at the two locations without having to interview who to promote. He and HR simply tracked their skill sets, knowledge areas, and personal tendencies for a year via Freedcamp.
