Predict & fix problems
before they occur

  • Assign tasks to milestones and estimate time needed to complete and then watch the plan appear.
  • Simple, straightforward time tracking - People log actual time spent on tasks as the close them
  • Managers know exactly where projects stand based on real task completion data. Manage your resources, not a planning tool.
  • If your team works on multiple projects just drill up and review the organization wide cross project plan
