Why Our Customers Love Upper Hand | Stories From Our Team

This article was written by Keely McGrath, Product Marketer at Upper Hand. We’ve said it once, we’ll say it again and we’ll keep on saying it… we have the best customers.

Four Reasons Our Customers Love Upper Hand

It’s built by you, for you.

And we mean it. One of the “coolest” parts of our company is that we build our solution based directly on our customer feedback. Each of our customers is given access to our product portal where they have the ability to vote on feature ideas based on the importance to their business, submit new ideas and see those features push through our development cycle.
“We have been a user since the beginning of when Upper Hand created their software. I have been able to grow my personal business along with the growth of Upper Hand. They have always listened to user ideas and have implemented many of our suggestions. They’ve been a great fit for our company.” – Chris Husby, Special Teams Football Academy

You Asked, We Answered: Membership FAQs

In our latest edition of The Huddle, we outline the most frequently asked questions regarding memberships with Upper Hand.

This is another way to keep steady revenue flowing into the business.
