New Cloud-Based App Makes Team Scheduling a Child’s Play
Geneva, Switzerland (PRWEB) November 11, 2013 -- Verano Software SA, a Swiss startup, has publicly released Teambook, a fast, simple and collaborative project resource scheduling web-based app. Teambook was created to help service-oriented companies manage their resources efficiently, increase profitability and improve communication with their team and customers. Starting at 29$ per month, Teambook features a cleverly designed calendar that helps planners book the right resources for the right projects at the right time.
In the past few years, more and more companies have realized the importance of team scheduling and how it impacts business. Large companies tend to use complex and costly ERP systems whereas small firms struggle with basic non-collaborative spreadsheets, resulting in poor profitability and utilization rates, a lot of pressure for the people in charge of planning and inability to forecast client demand and staffing needs.
Truth lies in real-life stories and Teambook very own story started when Michel Regueiro co-founded a consulting firm in 2008. “In the beginning, we were only two consultants, so using a spreadsheet to schedule our team was a no-brainer,” said Michel. “As the company grew, everyone noticed team scheduling was becoming more and more difficult - it even became our number one challenge when the company reached fifty employees.” From there, Michel and his team started searching for a planner-friendly solution that would avoid sync and communication issues and be accessible to clients, team members and managers. “The market didn’t offer any satisfying options,” concluded Michel, “so the team decided to develop its very own tool.”
Teambook offers features that make team scheduling a child’s play such as project resource bulk booking, gestual drag-n-drop rescheduling, time-off period handling, centralized and searchable resource skills with user tags. Team communication is improved with Google, Windows and Mac OS calendar sync integration and client collaboration is enhanced with a direct access to their project planning.
Teambook comes with a 14-day free trial and monthly subscription plans start at 29$, making it affordable for any company. All plans come with unlimited users. “We did not choose the user-based pricing model,” explains Michel. “We strongly believe that providing access to anyone in an organization will increase the transparency and awareness, without having to worry about the cost.”
Released today, Teambook is available in the cloud and does not require any software installation or training. http://teambookapp.com
