WebTransit Unveils Updated Version of OmniTracker

Atlanta (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.

Distribution of the new OmniTracker™ will begin in January.  For more information about setting up OmniTracker on your own server, or if you would like a personal guided tour of OmniTracker, send an e-mail to info@omnitracker.com or contact us at 404-355-6900 ext. 611.
