In an era where knowledge is power, the right approach to product training can be the difference between mediocrity and excellence. As reported by Statista, the average number of software as a service (SaaS) applications employed by companies soared to over 100 in 2021. This trend, driven not by IT departments but by the very departments that use the software, signals a sustained growth trajectory.
