Overall Satisfaction with Teamwork Projects
Teamwork was used by the content team as a tool to move content initiatives through the concept, development and launch process. It was a tool to show us where any one content piece was in this process along with deliverables by others to move it further. As a collaboration tool, it aided us in communication, updates and general awareness. We also used other tools to supplement some of the communication needs, but Teamwork was the home of all outstanding content projects and timelines. It was also a good place to capture ideas that may later turn into content initiatives.
- Great for collaboration with teams, onsite and off.
- Allows for task creation to make sure people are meeting their deadlines.
- Alerts help notify team members of updates or items that require their attention.
- Buy-in from all users is CRITICAL. Without it, your use of the tool will fall by the wayside.
- For larger, more task-oriented projects, a more robust project management tool may be needed. This was a great tool for smaller team collaboration.
- I cannot associate an ROI for our organization's use of the tool; it is likely that we did not integrate or customize it to meet this specific metric capture.
- Harvest
In another role, we used Harvest for time tracking and project management. It was more robust in terms of time tracking and resource allocation, but didn't offer anything more/greater than Teamwork in terms of project management and tracking. Both appeal to the smaller organizations and can work with teams that are onsite and offsite.
