About The Customer
Gant Travel is a corporate travel management company that primarily serves business travelers. The company has 100 employees and uses Domo Everywhere as its primary product. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Gant Travel had to pivot its services from booking business travel to helping customers understand their travel commitments so they could make alternative arrangements. The company serves over 2,000 travel managers and had to quickly adapt to the changing needs of its clients in the face of the global health crisis.
The Challenge
The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the business travel industry. Gant Travel, a corporate travel management company, had to pivot its services from booking business travel to helping customers understand their travel commitments so they could make alternative arrangements. The company needed to quickly disseminate information to its account managers and travel managers. Furthermore, as the pandemic continued, Gant Travel realized that the disruption in corporate travel would impact the company and its customers for many months. They needed to redesign their dashboards and reporting to meet the needs for traveling during and after COVID-19.
The Solution
To address the challenges brought about by the pandemic, Gant Travel utilized Domo to build cards that account managers could easily access and share with travel managers. Using Domo Embed, Gant was able to automatically surface these embedded dashboards to its 2,000+ travel managers using programmatic filtering. This allowed the company to put different data points in a place where everyone was already comfortable. Furthermore, Gant used Domo to collect and share data that allowed travel managers to provide duty of care. By knowing where all their employees are at any time, a customer can feel confident that they weren’t putting an employee in any danger. Gant also combined their data with Domo’s COVID-19 dashboards to give clients a real-time view of the health and safety of places where employees were scheduled to travel.

SET Creative Ditches Google Vault for Datto Backupify
When Kienholz first started at SET, the staff was using Microsoft Outlook for email with no form of data backup. It became apparent that something needed to change as the staff was often burdened with trying to recover emails from departed employees. Kienholz transitioned the team to Google’s Gmail and implemented Google Vault for backup purposes. While SET employees quickly adjusted to Gmail, which many use for personal email, the same could not be said for Google Vault. “Unlike most Google products, Vault was not user friendly at all. It’s very hard to search for items. We never really figured out how to do a restore either,” explained Kienholz. Due to SET’s work with high-profile brands, projects often go through many rounds of revisions right down to the eleventh hour. This means that every bit of information - especially data living in project managers’ emails - is crucial to delivering clients a polished design at deadline.

Sawback IT and Datto Save Client From a Costly Mistake
Ballistic Echo, a software development house, faced a critical challenge when human error led to the deletion of thousands of lines of unique code. This incident occurred before the code was pushed to source control, resulting in significant loss of time, revenue, and work. The previous file-level backup solution they used was slow and inefficient, making it nearly impossible to manually recreate the lost work. The need for a more reliable and efficient business continuity solution became evident to avoid such disasters in the future.

Pipeline Insight Case Study: YARCDATA
YarcData faced challenges in determining the conversion rates of prospects into customers through various marketing efforts and identifying the source of its leads. They wanted to know the percentage of opportunities in the sales pipeline that came from different marketing events, web downloads, or self-sourced sales opportunities. Additionally, they needed the ability to drill down into the data to guide where to allocate more marketing dollars based on the success of previous efforts. Previously, YarcData relied heavily on spreadsheets and Salesforce.com reports, which made it difficult to extract the exact information they needed. This reliance on spreadsheets represented about 70% of their data presentation.
