Since the advent of project management tools, the project management level of enterprises has been greatly improved. However, as time goes by and technology advances, traditional project management tools can no longer meet current needs, and remote, multi-person collaboration, and real-time sharing have gradually become new requirements. This is how cloud-based project management tools came into being. Therefore, what value can cloud-based project management tools bring to enterprises?
1. Unified platform
When a team wants to accomplish one thing, it emphasizes sincere collaboration and one mind. But in fact, due to many restrictions, it is still very difficult for a team to achieve complete ideology and full collaboration. Different people in the team are responsible for different tasks. When their information cannot be synchronized in real time, information islands will inevitably form, resulting in a decrease in team collaboration efficiency.
Cloud project management, such as Zoho Projects , allows the entire project team to collaborate on one platform. Through task management, different tasks are assigned to different members, and the completion time limit and progress are marked, breaking the information island between members, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of project management.
2. Real-time communication and instructions
The problems are endless, often because of communication problems. Because of the differences between people and the differences in understanding, there will be many different understandings of the same problem, which will also lead to difficulties in project tasks. To solve such problems, in addition to focusing on communication methods, it is also necessary to allow the rapid flow of information.
Cloud project management allows team members to process tasks on the platform while sharing information with other members through the platform, and can communicate in real time on a certain issue or task. Managers can also intuitively see the progress of tasks through the platform, and promptly give instructions for tasks with disagreements, so as to solve the problem of slower project progress caused by communication problems.
3. Project visual management
When project requirements are constantly being put forward, multi-tasking and multi-timelines will drive project managers crazy. Cloud project management can visualize project tasks, integrate and process the collected information, simplify the system and synchronize it to relevant project personnel in a timely manner to ensure that the project leader can timely understand and grasp the latest progress of the project, and analyze Project data, gradually clarify the actual situation of the project, discover the potential problems and risks of the project in time, and implement the risks into the actual plan to ensure that the project is operated within a controllable range. For example, use the Gantt chart function to visually display task progress, time nodes, and so on.
The value of cloud project management to enterprises is not only these, but the core value is to improve the efficiency of project management, thereby helping enterprises to grow in different projects.
