December 28, 2000 For Immediate Release WebTransit Unveils Updated Version of OmniTrackerAtlanta
(December 28, 2000) -- WebTransit, Inc. has released their latest version
of OmniTracker™, a comprehensive e-production management tool designed
to increase efficiency, boost productivity and expand revenues. OmniTracker™
is a powerful web-based enterprise workflow management tool for any size
organization managing multiple clients, projects and team members.
OmniTracker is easy to use and has an intuitive interface that allows new
team members to get up to speed instantly with any project or activity. OmniTracker
2001 incorporates several new features.
“The redesign allowed us to incorporate customer feedback into
expanded features for better usability,” said Gary Troutman, president
of WebTransit. “OmniTracker
is a much more comprehensive tool for managing many projects, people and
clients.” The reporting
capabilities have been expanded and features added for automated e-Reports
to be emailed to any user on a timetable of their choosing.
The enhanced administration area allows the system to be even more
flexible than before and can be customized to accommodate your terminology
and work environment. OmniTracker
2001 is a web-based workflow management application that runs on MSIIS and
MSSQL server. OmniTracker can be deployed from a secure web site, or
installed on a company’s intranet. With only a browser necessary for
access, OmniTracker is ideal for coordinating project teams, which may be
spread throughout a building or across the country.
Companies can manage the entire life cycle of a project from one
place, although the employees working on the project are scattered across
the globe. Added features include the ability to create groups for users
and make assignments, create reports and track work specifically for those
groups. Another improvement
involves the expanded folder and task hierarchies that now allow for
multiple tiers of projects, tasks and activities. Initially
designed as an internal tool to help WebTransit provide better service to
its own clients, OmniTracker quickly becames indispensable to everyone who
uses it.
. OmniTracker
provides a warehouse of information for all team members working on a
Project. No more searching
for a spec document or new graphic when a new employee is added.
All related documents for a Client or Project are quickly and
easily accessible. OmniTracker
is an excellent product for the entire life cycle of a project. Using only a browser, executives, managers and team members
can all access the pertinent information they need to operate efficiently. Executives
can view a high-level overview of the status of key projects, team
members, tasks and activities throughout the company.
They can receive tailored cross-project reports that include
billing information, hours spent on production and prior expenses for
estimating future project costs and budgets.
An automatic email notification of significant events or issues in
any project can be sent to executives at their request.
Likewise,
managers can automatically receive email updates from team members on the
progress of a project or task. They
can also view report summaries on schedule and cost status of any project.
Instant notification of critical schedule or other changes in any
project can be sent as well. Managers have the ability to electronically distribute tasks
and responsibilities to team members.
Finally, they can automatically generate customized reports to be
sent to management, clients and others once or on a regularly scheduled
basis.
Furthermore,
team members share documents and other relevant project or task
information in a secure, centralized Web location.
They can update project progress and enter time worked for all
tasks. OmniTracker allows
team members to view task history and all correspondence for activities
from a single source.
Completely scalable, OmniTracker allows multiple managers, clients and projects to be monitored as easily as a single task. The intuitive interface enables workers at every skill level to improve their productivity. Views
range from a global overview, listing all open projects, to detailed
history on specific tasks. A
hierarchy of users gives administrators and project managers access to
sensitive information (hourly wages, other cost issues) that workers and
clients can’t see. Project
summaries and other management reports can be created with the click of a
mouse.
