Good tool for small teams

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I've been using this software during one of my recent freelance engagements, where I was a part of a multinational, global team of IT specialists working on the same project. Peoplebox helped us to report the progress of ongoing activities, and manage our tasks and goals achieved. We used it as a kind of collaboration, reporting, and monitoring tool.

Pros

  • Allows to easily monitor activities progress.
  • Helps in prioritizing tasks.

Cons

  • I did not identify any features that would be missing from my perspective. One could complain about the user interface, but it's a matter of personal preferences, so I do not consider it as an area for improvement as such.

Return on Investment

  • Positive - gave us confidence that the project tasks are moving forward (as the team was reporting on a regular basis in this tool) and what we should focus on at first.
