Absorb Software sees 30% revenue boost by adopting gen AI for productivity gains and improving buyer experience

The problem

Absorb Software lacked visibility into their sales pipeline, relying on Salesforce reports that depended on whatever data reps chose to enter. Senior managers had no real insight into deal activity, and the team faced pressure to achieve significant growth without adequate tools for decision-making.
