Loving this!
Date: May 29 2023SummaryOverall I am enjoying the experience. Something that I count as really important is the ability to customize things so that it can be personalized. This makes that really easy. I also like to slowly incorporate newer software and systems, so the integration with Microsoft Projects made this perfect. Everything else is really just a bonus feature to me.
PositiveThe drag-and-drop features make customization super easy. Everyone can set it up in ways that suit their own style, too. I have gotten a lot of use out of the mobile views as well. We've been able to track time and log work that's been completed so much more easily, and changing schedules in real time has never been so seamless. Another feature I have thoroughly enjoyed is the ability to create comments that mention another user, which is then sent to their email, and they can reply to it through the email directly. I believe we even want to try and find a way to work this into communications with our contractors and applicants. Oh, and the 2-way integration with Microsoft Project has made transitioning much easier for some of our staff, since that's what we previously used.
NegativeSince it was a somewhat new software, we have taken quite a bit of time trying to figure out how to do some of the things we needed to do. The support has been very helpful, but for some of us it's just not so easy to pick up for the first-time use.

Effortless!
Updated: Jun 06 2023SummaryMy experience with WorkOtter has been great incredible as an Accounts Manager and member of a Marketing project management team. Right from the start, their sales staff demonstrated exceptional knowledge without any hint of pushiness, so it ended up being a seamless implementation process setting things up with the software. I must also commend the remarkable support team, who promptly addressed all our queries and played a pivotal role in helping us kick-start our journey with WorkOtter.
PositiveWhat I liked most about this software was the ease of building and configuring dashboards. It's not easy to overlook sometimes with PM softwares, but WorkOtter's dashboard features allow me to create a personalized workspace tailored to my project management needs.
The resource management and capacity planning features were incredibly useful in allocating and tracking resources, and that really does help when it comes to efficient project execution.
The ability to sync with Microsoft Excel and integrate with other systems through open APIs streamlined my workflows and enhanced collaboration with seamless data exchange. So it's pretty much a bit of many things that I'm coming to like about the software.NegativeNo issues at present. There's a bit of a learning curve needed to maximize the entire software's utility but that's applicable to pretty much any software. It's been pretty intuitive to use so far, however, so everything seems to be working fine.

It's about time. Finally something easy to use.
Date: May 22 2023SummaryMy overall experience has been a good one.
