Los Gatos (Feb 10th, 2015). Sciforma, one of the leading PPM software companies, announces the release of its new Project Scheduler.
Following the release of its HTML5-based solution last year, Sciforma adopted an assertive, DevOps-inspired, 6-week release policy. By doing so, they intend to better accommodate customer expectations and deliver more frequent new features.
“For the latest update of Sciforma, our UX Design team underwent extensive User Research. This research confirmed that, despite the emergence of Agile-like approaches (also supported by Sciforma), project managers are still eager for both advanced and traditional project management capabilities. This especially revolves around the Gantt chart. With that in mind, we completely revisited the experience we provide to Project Managers in terms of scheduling and tracking their projects. We are thrilled to introduce the new Project Scheduler,” explained Fabien Herelle, VP of Solutions at Sciforma.
Sciforma designed an unique, intuitive, simple and yet powerful interface allowing the Project Managers to access all the necessary features to:
- create the Task outline
- assign and control Resources
- identify and solve scheduling problems
- manage Risks
- and more.
Explore the new project scheduler functionalities
- Ability to simulate the impact of a potential new assignment on a Resource workload across all Projects of the database
- Easily replace a Resource or fulfill soft assignments throughout the Project.
- Identify the issues following a Project update and understand the chain of elements that led to those issues.
- Sciforma Theater: tailor, share, and present project information to various audiences.
Customers’ feedback to this new design has been overwhelmingly positive emphasizing its ease of use. With more exciting features to be released every six weeks, Sciforma wants to put the User experience at the center of the Design and Development teams effort to offer the best solution, update after update.
