A budding cyber risk management software company was on the brink of exponential growth and faced several growth-related challenges:
-
- There was an increasing need for skilled professionals, especially software engineers proficient in Ruby on Rails, Elixir, and Python, along with a Director of Operations.
- Finding individuals who fit the required skill set and also the company culture and pace was vital.
- Following the acquisition, the company struggled with internal processes and preferred to work through ConsultNet’s Statement of Work to leverage the established trust and understanding of their needs.
“ConsultNet was pivotal to our rapid growth and success. They didn’t just understand our needs—they anticipated them, connecting us with exceptional talent that was instrumental in our journey from a startup to an industry leader. Their partnership was a key factor in our seamless expansion and eventual global acquisition.”
