Common Pitfalls to Avoid

  • Over-engineering from day one. Start simple, add complexity gradually.
  • Not training the team. Ensure everyone understands the new process.
  • Ignoring feedback. Adjust settings based on team input and usage patterns.
  • Setting unrealistic expectations. Give the team time to adapt to new workflows.
  • Not using integrations. Connect to tools your team already uses daily.
  • Forgetting about stakeholders. Set up reporting for people outside the immediate team.
