Quick summary
The release emphasizes empowering growers to remain focused on plant care and operations, while we continuously improve your software to be more efficient, powerful, and adaptable.
As we wrap up Q2, we wanted to share the improvements that are already saving our customers significant time and reducing operational headaches.
