Case Study: GROW streamlines hardware and software development with Shortcut

GROW’s software development teams use Shortcut to help make it dirt simple to grow food

GROW, a technology company that produces smart planters and an accompanying app, faced the challenge of managing a highly diverse team. With fewer than ten employees, the team included hardware, software, firmware, and electrical engineers who all worked on different parts of the product but had little visibility into each other's work. They needed a project management solution from a vendor like Shortcut that could prevent information silos while still allowing each specialist to focus on their own piece of the project.

Shortcut provided the flexible framework needed to solve this. The vendor's software allowed different teams to create custom views and workflows that fit their specific needs, from the software team's use of dependencies to the manufacturing team's use of it as an advanced task list. This enabled everyone to focus on their own work while co-founders could easily track overall progress. As a result, Shortcut helped GROW become a more dynamic and productive team, effectively carving out its niche in the gardening industry.
