Still looking for the perfect gift for the techie, entrepreneur or hard-to-shop-for person in your life? Who better to give ideas than the makers themselves! We asked the startup community which Prairie-made products and services they’d love to receive this year.
From software to gear, here’s what we’re most excited to give this holiday season:
Subscription to Bric
Bric is a project planning and time tracking platform that allows organizations to effectively schedule their teams. It allows teams to know who is working on what and who is available so users can eliminate the phone calls, emails and meetings that were previously required to coordinate teams around projects. Everything is a click away on Bric.
