Online Project Software Essentials
In today's Web 2.0 social media world, knowledge workers are moving toward a mobile, shareable, access anywhere at anytime type of information-sharing environment. Project managers are no exception, and thus online project software is gaining popularity among project managers from both small businesses and large enterprises. To effectively manage a project, you must have tools at your disposal that are svelte and effective. Too many features, and the system becomes clunky and too hard to navigate, thus decreasing efficiency.
The ability to share information is vital, because you cannot manage a project without clear communication. Accessibility is another component of project tools, as the best project management software in existence can't help you if left your computer at home! Any PM worth her salt knows that collaboration is a crucial component of managing a successful project. Several teams need to work in-sync to make sure things go off without a hitch. TeamWork Live is built to provide all the tools you need to manage a project end to end; let's take a look at what some of the tools are.
Components of a Modern Project Toolbox
First, there is the need to be able to define Milestones and assign and track tasks. With online project software from TeamWork Live, tasks and milestones will be visible across the board by all members of your team, third party vendors, and your clients. Of course, the project lead will have the control to decide who should have access to what information, but the ability to have complete transparency is always a plus. Messaging is also included, so you can see what questions are popping up from any team members. Document management must be organized and be easily integrated with Google Docs to faciliate sharing. A project calendar is an essential piece of the puzzle as it will keep team members abreast of the project timeline. Budgeting and time tracking are included to make sure you always stay within budget. Last but certainly not least, potentially the most important tool in a project manager's arsenal is robust reporting capabilities. TeamWork Live online project software has the slick reporting abilities to keep your clients educated and informed, while keeping you focused on what's most important, which is keeping the projects running smoothly.
What Sets Our Project Tool Apart?
One of the strongest of the multitude of features of TeamWork Live's online project software is the intuitive way in which it groups related information. Unlike other project software you have used in the past, such as Basecamp or Microsoft Project, with TeamWork Live you will not have to jump around from page to page to find the document that goes with the task you were just assigned. Not only will related documents be grouped with related tasks and milestones, but also integrated messaging capabilities even allow you to attach a message directly to the task in question, avoiding any confusion as to what your intention was.
