JAAD Group, LLC has over 25 years of experience working with Excel and other Microsoft products in addition to performing maintenance on PCs. The company was established in 2013 to help individuals and companies maximize their use of Excel. Before forming JAAD Group, the owner worked in IT departments for several companies. In every case, it was noticed that process improvement, quality standards, and software efficiency could always be improved. When management was asked why certain policies and procedures were done a certain way, the answer was disheartening – “That is the way we have always done it.” Nonetheless, through the use of technology, systems could be put in place that allowed employees to focus on doing their jobs instead of
creating ways to do their jobs. For instance, a Chief Financial Officer should not spend hours reformatting Excel spreadsheets every month. Rather, he should have a system in place that allows for an easy import of data. Thereafter s/he can focus on analyzing the data and making management decisions based on the data. The company was thus founded to help anyone by automating and streamlining Excel while increasing its efficiency. There ARE ways to do things better. Most organizations do not have the budget nor the time to invest in teaching someone the complex ins-and-outs of Excel macros, tables, and nested formulas. Our team is constantly searching and investigating the newest ways to use Excel with the intent
to help people enjoy its flexibility and benefit from its reporting features. In addition, the future of technology is moving towards the web. JAAD Group is capitalizing on this by building applications that can be accessed anywhere and by anyone with the proper credentials. JAAD Group has created several online apps that provide instant access to invaluable data. Services have been provided to groups such as on-the-go insurance agents and large security teams.
