This Thanksgiving, we thank our employees!

Nov 24 By Amy Deavoll | Categories: Announcements

On this Thanksgiving, we would like to express our gratitude for the honor of winning our second Gold Stevie® Award for "Best Computer Services Company of the Year" from the 2016 International Business Awards. This awesome distinction is a testament to the excellence of our entire team and our amazing partners.

And to thank our hard-working employees at QLess, we set-up an internal contest so that one of our employees could journey to Rome and accept our award. The catch?

That’s useless, inefficient, frustrating time that we’ll never get back. By avoiding lines at the hospital, DMV, airports, and other places where people are forced to stand around, you can reclaim wasted hours every day. That’s where mobile queuing technology can play a key role in saving time.

Picture a line of frustrated and footsore citizens stretching around a city block on a cold autumn evening. Some people see that line and head home, realizing they can’t afford to wait hours just for a chance to vote and let the government hear their voice.
