Did you know that almost 1 in 5 actions in Accelo every day is related to a Project?

Why? Because Projects are how many service professionals and teams do client work.

Despite an overwhelming need for modern project management software, service businesses have long been limited to one of two methodologies: Traditional or Agile.

That is, until now.

Introducing Automated Adaptive Project Management (AAPM).

Designed for service businesses where no two clients, days, or projects are ever the same, AAPM combines the best of Agile and Traditional methodologies to help you deliver great client work and run a more profitable business, with ease.

Accelo’s AAPM upgrade was previewed by our CEO, Geoff McQueen, in the webinar below, to introduce Accelo users to the improvements coming their way, including:

  • Major upgrades to the way you handle - and set - project dates, including the ability to define the start and due dates and not have them move around as upstream dependencies run late (or early).
  • A whole new level of automation, including the ability for milestones and tasks to start automatically when upstream dependencies are satisfied, when defined start dates are met, or a combination of all these.
  • New configurations to allow you to control how smart you want Accelo to be on a per-project level, including whether you want things to run with lots of automation or only a little bit.
  • A brand new Gantt chart, which - and this is a first - can show you planned, actual, forecast and target dates in one easy to consume screen!
  • Many other impressive UI enhancements and time savers, especially for when you're creating new projects.

 

This upgrade has been months in the making, but we anticipate to roll it out without any major interruptions. The upgrade will take place between July 14 and 15 (depending on your timezone), and we'll do our best to ensure it doesn't impact your work. 

While we love getting your feedback on upgrades, there are limited spaces for sandbox testing on this one, so we’ll be a bit selective with beta requests. If you do, however, have the time to commit to testing and submitting feedback, please contact [email protected]
