00:40

What makes it stand out from the different offerings available? Well, the first thing is in project management, the key component that needs to be

00:51

01:00

Second.

01:00

Well, look at tracking and management off tasks. Time, um, budget. How are they being utilized? What activities overlap which re sources are being multitask and which resources are being underutilized.

01:21

it's a good to have collaboration. How many team members can work and collaborate and expand and document and increase the value off the off the

01:34

the whole project

01:37

by the means of document sharing by the means off internal messaging.

01:42

This is something that in the workplace in a dynamic workplace, ongoing messaging not just face to face meeting, not just phone calls. It requires a more dynamic environment. So there's a lot off text messaging in the form of a control platform.

02:00

1st 1 is base camp Base Camp is a very popular project management software, and he's widely used by many management teams.

02:39

another one, and this is widely used in larger environment is dear A. From a glazier.

02:47

This platform is

02:50

caters to the agile sulfur development environment,

02:54

and within this type of off practice, it allows the creation or what we call scrum boards, Cambon boards and agile reporting. Very useful for tracking bugs for monitoring and notifying of issues on time

03:14

and addressing them

03:15

is very well known, very popular as well.

03:20

Another suffered package and maybe the most well known is Microsoft Project.

04:06

he provides similar controls a CE Microsoft project,

04:13

and he's best suited for project planning, reporting and project updating and tracking.

04:21

Finally, we have Trillo

04:24

trailer is another well known a platform. He relies on this types off boards or blocks or cards, and it basically breaks down the project across four or five

04:42

different items. That resource is that we have

04:45

what he's spending to do, what is being worked on and what has being completed.

04:50

Uh, it could be custom further customized according to the needs of the project,

04:55

to increase more details or increase in between tasks, so is more about the

05:02

actionable Sze off the project that the resource is on Lee off the project or the schedules of the project or the time management off the project.
