By treating project data as a database, you open up a new level of analysis and decision making. More data, when handled properly, allows you to solve data processing and automation problems faster and more efficiently.
Remember: The quality and quantity of data directly impacts your ability to automate processes and solve complex problems.

Take control of your data and let it work for you! 🚀
