Notes from Anton's Desk

First, let me introduce myself! My name is Anton Zlygostev, and I am joining the Easy Projects .NET family as a Marketing Manager, working out of our Toronto office. Easy Projects .NET is growing and I just can't wait to unveil the exciting new features that the developers are working on.

As a Marketing Manager, a lot of information and notes pass through my desk and sometimes very interesting ones get left behind; this is the place where you'll get to read them all! Perhaps it's a secret new feature we have planned for Easy Projects .NET or an exclusive contest or insider discount pricing, whatever it is, you'll see it here first! Yet another reason to subscribe and look forward to our newsletter!

My first note comes from an internal memo: Version 6.1 is coming very soon with great new features such as personal schedules and vacation planning! Now check out the rest of our newsletter and I'll see you in our August edition of Notes from Anton's Desk!

Tip of the Month

Q: How can I quickly compare a budget and an actual cost for my projects?

A: Easy! First, go to the Project List page and click on the "Customize" link. Then choose the "Budget" field in the drop-down and click "Add". Do the same for the "Current Cost" field. Then click "Apply". Both fields will appear as columns in the Project list table.

Budget and Actual cost

Project Management Book of the Month

Scrappy Project Management: The 12 Predictable and Avoidable Pitfalls Every Project Faces
by Kimberly Wiefling

This book is for people who need to get things done . . . especially project managers, either those who are new to the field and want to learn about what REALLY works, or seasoned project managers who don't buy the rhetoric of the PMI "party line" about how projects ought to and do run. It will also appeal to people who are involved in projects that they are not running, but no one else is either! In fact, any manager can benefit from many of the insights contained in this book.

Want to judge more than the cover? See the book here at Amazon: http://amzn.com/1600050514

Quote of the Month

A project without a critical path is like a ship without a rudder.
