It is no secret that the failure rate of IT projects is the biggest worry for project managers. Add to this the impact of the current pandemic. A cursory Google search will present you with reports from Gartner, Statista and many others detailing how the spending in Global IT is projected to go down in 2020 (We still don’t have complete figures for all the financial quarters in 2020) compared to 2019. This is despite the availability of vaccines and the growing number of vaccinated population.

IT teams across the digital world are currently facing their biggest test yet. Ensuring that things are running smoothly when employees are working from home. And they’re doing a very good job at it. But, there’s always room for improvement right? If you’ve ever been a part of an IT team, you know the pain of jumping between multiple software tools, the effects of a broken down collaboration system and the struggle for visibility amongst team members.

Seeing someone manage big projects makes it seem like an easy job. How long would it take to send emails to employees? It probably takes a minute to check your inbox or call a member of your team to give them an assignment. Actual project managers will tell you that this cannot be further from the truth. Sure, all those small tasks take a small amount of time but group them all and you get a shocking amount of time.

Project Managers are presented with some challenging tasks which can hinder the success of the project. Some of the most prevalent challenges that keep project managers on the ball involve making sure the project is on track, within the assigned budget, keeping up with the project's pace, and managing resources.

Managing projects isn’t an easy task, particularly if you’re managing parallel projects with inter-team dependencies. Lack of visibility coupled with difficulty in obtaining the right metrics on time can make it nearly impossible for project teams to track issues, action items, and risks, often resulting in projects running behind schedule, overshooting budgets, or worse, getting stalled due to unforeseen problems.

Technology can help streamline your business operations. One of the principal goals of any enterprise despite its size is to be more and more efficient in marketing its particular services or products. Efficiency can be enhanced in several ways if you have started to feel like your company is on the edge of spreading chaos. But, managing a business in a proper way is difficult and you might be unaware of where to commence to start restoring order.
