Admin module
This module can be accessed only by admins and super-admin.
This module enables you to perform admin-related actions, such as adding the details of your employees who'll be syncing together on certain projects. This enables your colleagues to collaborate easily and complete tasks on time with their combined efforts, while also filtering out employees who are over-burdened and distribute work evenly. It also ensures that you have your colleagues' contact information at your fingertips. You can choose to add your employees as either members or managers, and assign members to their reporting managers. After adding your employees, this application will then be shared with them, with restricted permissions as configured. They'll be able to add their individual jobs, tasks, and time logs.
Jobs/Tasks module
This module can be accessed by admins, super admin, and employees (users added in employees form).
This module acts as a central repository for your projects, where you can create new projects, set deadlines for tasks, and ensure that projects are completed within estimated timelines. You can also set up automatic reminders to notify your team about any upcoming or pending tasks, and always stay up to date with your fellow team members. You can even customize the reminders by selecting how many days or how many hours prior to the deadline you'd like them to be sent out. Employees can add their jobs, thereby encouraging them to stay on top of details like how long each task takes, who’s currently working on what, and more.
As as admin/manager, you can view the projects, jobs and tasks in each project. Additionally, you can mark a project as completed at the click of a button and add remarks upon completion. This enables you to gain feedback on your work completion in real time.
Time Logs module
This module can be accessed by admins, managers, and members.
This module serves as the unified database for all your time logs, both daily and weekly. You can also configure time logs for respective projects, thereby ensuring your team works more efficiently by measuring the time they've spent on each task. You can set these time logs to track time for projects in hours, set start and end dates, or configure a timer. The timer starts ticking and can be switched off in the Dashboard page upon reaching a specific time threshold. Managers can view their individual time logs as well as their teams' time logs, whereas members can view their added time logs.
