Clarizen Showcases Winter 2015/2016 Product Release
The many technological solutions that are part of today's organizations help improve overall operations and processes, but they also increase the level of complexity. Managing and monitoring all of the systems requires another technology to ensure everything is working at optimal levels.
The winter release of Clarizen's solution will provide 360-degree visibility into business operations and productivity enhancements to give companies a comprehensive picture of their organization.
Clarizen specializes in creating collaborative work management software built on a secure, scalable enterprise platform. It brings cross-company project management, configurable workflow automation, in-context collaboration and role-based experience together.
"Our vision of collaborative work management uniquely involves empowering workers with expanded visibility that is actionable across all lines of business, departments and teams, including customers and partners," said Rachel Hadas, VP Product, Clarizen.
Calrizen has highlighted four new feature as part of its winter release:
External Collaborator Portal – With customers, vendors, partners and employees so integrated, this new functionality lets external collaborators gain more visibility into how a company delivers its services. According to Clarizen, the bi-directional visibility this offers provides better alignment with third parties the company works with.
Hadas added, "The external collaborator portal also provides an extended, more efficient way of communicating throughout the service delivery lifecycle. By allowing teams to effectively collaborate with their external stakeholders, organizations can increase client satisfaction rates ultimately helping to ensure success and increase profitability."
Interactive Calendar – Is a calendar-based layout so teams can see tasks, projects and cases to better manage their workload.
Color Coding in Gantt Chart – Gantt charts illustrate the start and finish dates of the terminal elements and summary elements of a project. Clarizen has improved the application with conditional color coding of tasks and milestones to provide more visibility.
Dynamically Editable Reports – The engine of this application has been improved to let customers view their business operations and take necessary actions on the report in real-time.
The goal of deploying a collaborative work management software is to simplify work, reduce communication overload and provide full visibility at every level of an organization so everyone can be efficient. The winter product release of Clarizen looks to do that so enterprises can adapt to changes and achieve their objectives more effectively by responding to market conditions.
The Winter Release is available for free to existing Clarizen customers, except the external collaborator portal, which requires service fees.
