Today, VFX studios face many project planning issues

Forced to use a mix of homegrown tools and off-the-shelf software to manage VFX projects, studios find data being siloed in departments and never used again. Staff have little visibility. Bidding is mostly guesswork. Endless meetings are needed to keep tasks on track. This causes huge inefficiencies across teams and regularly puts profit margins at risk.
