Challenges Faced by Traditional Cremation Service Providers in Digital Transformation

Traditional cremation service providers require extensive paperwork, in-person meetings, and manual processing, which can be overwhelming for grieving families. Manual workflows lead to operational inefficiencies, increased potential for errors, and limited scalability. Customers need a simple, transparent, and secure online platform to arrange cremation services without the need for physical visits, especially under sensitive circumstances.
