In June, Next Gear Solutions announced the acquisition of its biggest competitor, ClientRunner. The goal was to create a platform unrivaled in the restoration industry - harnessing the power and robustness of DASH and its clear industry leadership in job management software, with ClientRunner's simplicity.
What happens when two companies that have spent the last few years competing with one another? How do they come together to unite for a common purpose? What are the pitfalls and benefits from this process and what lessons can restoration contractors take away from these software leaders merging? I sat down with Garret Gray, the CEO of Next Gear Solutions, and Scott Severe, former CEO of ClientRunner and now CSO of Next Gear Solutions, to find the answers to those questions and more.
