Silverbucket Oy offers a best-of-breed resource management software embraced by industry leaders, enabling customers to move past the Excel spreadsheet environment into a user-friendly subscription-based desktop solution. Silverbucket has reached undisputed market leadership in the home market and gained strong traction within key segments across the Nordics, especially in Sweden.
