Bamboo® Solutions, the leading provider of technologies that enhance Microsoft® SharePoint®, announced today that it has launched BambooPM™, a SaaS-based project management solution based upon Microsoft SharePoint. With BambooPM, project teams can collaborate and communicate more effectively with team members located around the globe, and without the requirement to install, configure or manage in-house servers. Available via a monthly subscription service, BambooPM allows project managers to lead project teams and collaborate on projects of any type for any industry.
The BambooPM software-as-a-service offering is based upon Bamboo’s popular Project Management Central™ software, launched in May of 2009 for project teams who have Microsoft SharePoint deployed in-house. Now offered as an on-demand service, BambooPM allows teams to become immediately productive through a self-provisioning user interface that lets users join projects from anywhere around the globe in just one minute. Teams benefit from seeing real-time project status of their entire project portfolio while enforcing uniform data control over all project data. Users can track, organize, maintain and report status, tasks, risks, resources and issues:
- Build interactive workspaces for each project
- Monitor all projects from a single, centralized location
- Setup and monitor visual KPI dashboards showing health and progress
- Use task lists with dependencies and predecessor relationships
- Communicate with teams via e-mail and automated alerts
- Manage time, availability, and costs of different resources
BambooPM is priced at $29.99 per month and is billed quarterly.
“BambooPM is the second online application introduced this year by Bamboo,” said Michael Tanner, CEO of Bamboo Solutions Corporation. “Our goal with BambooPM, as well as our other SaaS offerings, is to provide the most useful collection of collaborative software applications based upon Microsoft’s SharePoint platform, and to make them quickly and affordably available online so that end-users can get immediate benefit, whether or not they currently have SharePoint installed in-house today.”
