Challenge

Before we acquired Easy Projects .NET, we were not keeping track of time properly and a lot time wasn't being billed.

Solution and Results

Have evaluated 4 different project management applications we decided to purchase Easy Projects .NET mainly because it had some of the features we liked from MS Project and I really like the possibility of customizing the product with some of our other forms.

Currently 5 employees are actively using EP.NET managing 15+ projects simultaneously. We find time tracking, reporting and the organization of projects and tasks to be most important features for us. Right now we are about to start using the bug tracking feature in Easy Projects for QA purposes on websites, which we hadn't planned on while choosing a pm tool.

The key benefit of using Easy Projects .NET in our company - now when we want to know how profitable a project was we run a report and when it is time to do billing it is all right there. This was a big problem to us before and billing to took forever.
