1. Easy Projects .NET 4.2 Beta 1 is released

A short time ago we released version 4.1 and now we are happy to introduce version 4.2
New features and changes in EP.NET 4.2 include:
  • New icon was added to the Project List page that creates a new task under the selected project
  • Priority and progress filters were added to the Project/Task List pages
  • “View Tasks” button was added to the project details page, allowing to view a list of tasks inside the project
  • Ability to select period (Today / This Week / This Month ) at the Dashboard
  • Task Dependency list displays start and end date of each task
Unfortunately, due to the time constrains the following feature planned earlier for version 4.2 were re-scheduled for version 5.0:
  • Ability to create "milestones" in a project and then tie it to tasks
  • Expanded Report Generator (complex filters, predefined values, etc.)
  • "Move tasks" in addition to the “Copy tasks” button
Version 4.2 is available free of charge to all users who’ve purchased version 4.0 or 4.1

6. Testimonial of the Month

"The application itself is really well organized and well thought out. It is easy to use as its name stands for and at the same time it can easily satisfy serious demands.

We appreciate the hard work you and your team have put into Easy Projects. We started to use it last year and I cannot say we were power users, but it always gave us the support in tracking the time spent on many of our small projects.

If I meet someone who is looking for a solution like Easy Projects, I will recommend your software to them with confidence."

7. Project Management Book of the Month

The project management book of the month is “How to Cheat at IT Project Management” by Susan Snedaker


Review by Amazon.com:
Most IT projects fail to deliver, on average, all IT projects run over schedule by 82%, run over cost by 43% and deliver only 52% of the desired functionality. Pretty dismal statistics. Using the proven methods in this book, every IT project you work on from here on out will have a much higher likelihood of being on time, on budget and higher quality.

This book provides clear, concise, information and hands-on training to give you immediate results. And, the companion Web site provides dozens of templates for managing IT projects. You don't need an advanced degree in project management or a black belt in Six Sigma methodologies to improve your IT project results. What you need is a clear, concise and easy-to-implement system for managing all IT projects.

This book will teach you how to improve your IT project results from start to finish without bogging you down in complex project management jargon or systems. This book provides hands-on training to help you get immediate results. You can read the book straight through or work through it chapter by chapter--either way, you'll pick up invaluable tools to help you on your next (or current) IT project.
