What don’t you see? The fact that one of these prospects now has 5 open support tickets. And what can you do? Not much, expect apologize for not being able to respond until you’re back at your desk.There’s got to be a better way. That’s what we’re building at Tylr Mobile-- a role-specific mobile work app that connects your familiar tools for managing your mobile work with your business data and processes to make you more productive on the go. | $500K / Seed |
