Diligent ESG was shortlisted as one of the software solutions DWF should consider

After a web search, Diligent ESG was shortlisted as one of the software solutions DWF should consider. During the evaluation process, DWF evaluated all vendors against predefined criteria of capabilities, functionality and reporting flexibility.

As a relatively small organisation, DWF wanted to avoid a long IT implementation, capital outlay, or any plug-ins or software installs which would require time from the internal IT team. A cloud-based solution was preferred and one which is configurable without any software development was the ideal target solution.
