WorkOtter SaaS project management software has class leading issue, risk, change, action, and support items as well as integrated workplan scheduling. Regardless no one wants to setup every project from scratch. WorkOtter SaaS solutions for small business allow you to create project templates directly (or as a copy of a past successful project). The templates can contain any of the following for ease of reuse:
Unlike other solutions that limit your templates to just workplan items, WorkOtter SaaS project management software allows much more complete capability and with the “copy” feature it’s easy to setup different templates for specific scenarios. This saves you time and allows you to continuously improve by updating the templates for future projects. Small business gets SaaS business software without the EPM cost.
Your resource management forecasts are worthless unless everyone participates. Where other PPM solutions expect every project to have a workplan, WorkOtter allows a more flexible project by project forecasting including:
No other engineering project resource management software accommodates such flexible project by project forecasting, even allowing you to switch between settings (for example, setup a team forecast and switch to workplan once you have one to upload). WorkOtter is a resource management solution even the most project adverse managers can get behind.
For every PM that loves Microsoft Project, others quickly become frustrated and lose productivity. WorkOtter allows you to use a web-based “MSP like” light HTML5 project planner. Start with a template, import a MSP plan, or create it from scratch. Most loved features include:
All this (and more) in a “desktop like” experience with ribbon bars, context menus (right click), and features you would expect in a system infinitely more expensive than WorkOtter.
WorkOtter is hosted in a top tier, all steel frame, secure building. It is one of the largest facilities in the central United States. We designed our own cloud once we realized that public commercial clouds were slower, less secure, and more susceptible to performance issues.
WorkOtter utilizes banking grade, non open source SSL encryption and is SOC2 (formerly SSAE -16 and SAS70) and U.S. Department of Commerce Safe Harbor Certified. We use only Oracle database services for further security, performance and up-time.
As good as WorkOtter is, our personal support is better. You may not think that is very important if you are researching vendors, but we (and our customers) assure you – your implementation depends as much on the software features as the company that stands behind it.
WorkOtter helps engineers streamline their workflow, breaking down larger projects into smaller, more accomplishable tasks. The software also helps project companies to monitor their budget and time, ensuring things get done right, on time, and for the agreed-upon amount.
