10000ft vs. Sciforma

I think 10000ft is good for bare minimum project monitoring, we used it a large company because we didn't need to have exact numbers - it was just a rough idea to see where freelance resources were over burning. If, however you work a much smaller company and really need to know detailed information it's not as effective, there are many other software options that really allow for much closer and precise tracking. I would recommend 10000ft for companies that just need to monitor large freelance teams, track hours and higher level projects that are also monitored on other project management tools. It's a tool I would only use in conjunction with something else.

Yes, definitely. We wanted a flexible but robust software and Sciforma seemed to be the best fit

• Clear views
• Employees said it was easy to use
• They liked that it reflects changes immediately (or nearly immediately)

• Scheduling tasks.
• Assigning resources and cost items.
• Managing a team.

• The only problem I have with 10000ft is that the design/UI has started to feel a little outdated.
• I would like to have pre-done integrations with other platforms.

• The largest con for me is the clunky UI. It's not very intuitive, and has a larger learning curve to become a proficient user.
• Reports are functional, but could use some improvements.
• It can be slow at times, and you have to wait to make sure your changes are saved before moving on.

I think there's limited uses for the tool and much more comprehensive options out there for multiple tools in one. With more people working remotely, it's hard to just use email and face to face, in some ways you need to have a tool that's a fall back and a record of where you are + where you're going

They have been super responsive every time we need them. We built ourselves some integrations with other internal systems, and whenever we needed clarification or help to complete said integrations, they were super responsive. They have a very technical background which makes it super easy to work with when you present to them technical challenges regarding integrations or the use of their API.

This software allows project and portfolio managers to analyze and prioritize projects based on resource allocation and available effort. It helps you compare the sorecast effort with resource availability. You can email, call or tweet them if you have concerns.

Lower cost, easier interface, lower learning curve. More use it than past software b/c of these reasons. We use it now daily instead of as needed.

We were looking at vendors but they didn't meet our expectations and weren't flexible enough.

• Better at adjusting budgets in real-time
• Gets us away from complex spreadsheets like Excel and Sheets
• Feels like we have been a bit more scalable in our approach thanks to this software

Incentivized

• Before Sciforma we were running projects out of Excel and emails. Using a cloud based application means that everyone is viewing information in real time.
• Our executive leadership knows that they have one place to go for a real time status on all of our strategic projects.
