Covalent operates on the KiS Principle, Keep it Simple!
Simplicity is designed-into Covalent. We spend most of our time figuring out how to make our software simple, so we can keep your "figuring it out time" to a minimum. Every step in the process of deploying, using, managing and maintaining our software has been built using the "simple" filter. Simple doesn't mean basic though. Covalent manages many complex corporate-wide things - metrics, actions, risks and is richly featured, fully functional, proven in action performance management software. Managing complex things in a simple way is the clever bit with Covalent.
