| SmartTool: 5PM for Web-Based Project Management |
| 05.09.2008 |
Web-based project management is a no-brainer. Folks working on projects today already spend a lot of time on the Web and in email exchanging schedules, deadlines, documents and more.
Bringing all that together in a unified Web interface and with related tools is an appealing proposition.
Online project management vendors including Basecamp, Projjex and Zoho.
A new entrant is 5pm, which, according to Web Worker Daily:
....delivers the familiar Project/Task view you’re used to seeing in project management software. 5pm is easy on the eyes and features many pop-ups offering contextual how-tos and tips on usage.
There are tabs for projects, timelines (gantt charts), reports, and user (resource) profiles. The right hand pane is a contextual menu that refreshes whenever you click an item on the left.
Check out this screen shot to get a feel for the look-and-feel:
