Here’s a project management app with some handy features to help focus team members minds on what needs to be done to keep a project on track. No matter where in the world a team member is based the collaborative power of happytodos.com brings everyone together and provides the tools streamline all aspects of the operation.
Right from the start the system can help you estimate the overall cost of a project by taking into account projected hours and team member rates. This can also give you a likely due date for completion. If your idea of how long a task will take to complete is way off the mark then the guy responsible for doing it can adjust it accordingly and you’ll know in an instant what the impact on overall cost and due date is.
Keeping team members focused on what needs to be completed within a working day is easy with the ˈTask Trayˈ function. Based on the hours a member has available and the estimated time a task requires you can have his or her daily schedule planned and sitting in their tray before they even sit down at their desks. Actual time can then be tracked with a start-stop timer or entered manually.
All aspects of a project can be sent anywhere for completion and selected contractors don’t even have to be signed up to happytodos.com first. Simply email them the project details and an invitation to join the party and get them working with you on the same system and in the way that allows you to manage them efficiently.
The system is currently free for unlimited projects and users and includes 100MB of storage. Any larger requirement can be discussed with the developer. For anyone hunting for a project manager system I think this looks a great choice, and if you can test it out for nothing for a while then there really is nothing to lose.
Conclusion
I think this app will give project managers real control over what gets done by whom and by when. It also gives transparency to the team and allows for the seamless progression of a project through a number of different contributors.
