Lytho Workflow vs. WorkOtter PPM

It's a flexible program that can be molded to fit most businesses. It's geared towards agencies but we've been able to use it successfully as an in-house solution. It's pretty intuitive for the most part and is easy for new hires or clients to get up and running pretty quickly.

I know it works well for IT but not sure how it would work for construction. I think construction has a different set of needs.

• Project requests - can be tailored to fit your exact needs
• Project management - can assign tasks, track time, etc.
• Proofing - robust proofing environment that's easy for clients to learn

Incentivized

• Users find it easy to use which is important if you have a large number of users who don't have time for a lot of training or when new hires come on-board.
• WorkOtter has a lot of advanced features that we don't use but when we do need one, it is nice to know the feature is waiting for us. We have used several of these features for special projects.
• It does a good job with resource management.

• Some areas are rather clunky and repetitive when it comes to project management, like editing a template once applied.
• Once a review is live, it's very difficult to edit the reviewers unless a current tier is active.
• Pretty expensive compared to the competition.

• Nothing significant. Maybe could be faster at times but I'm not sure if that is our own internet connection.

By consolidating the requests, project management, and proofing without features we didn't need like invoicing it was an easy fit for us. We were able to quickly develop a comprehensive workflow and the gains to efficiency were immediate. Pricing was competitive (at least at the time) and the implementation was very good as well.

• Consolidation of project requests has been extremely helpful.
• The improvement of campus-wide communication is hard to put a price on.
• Our team knows what is due and when at all times. We're saving a lot of time previously spent in meetings.

Incentivized

• I think it has really helped us make sure we are using resources effectively but I think it is hard to prove. Although we don't have hard ROI numbers, I believe the general feeling is that you really need a good PPM tool or will waste a lot of time and money.
• It helps with communication since we have a standard process.
