Phoenix Project Manager

Phoenix Project Manager

Phoenix Project Manager is a scheduling tool designed to work the way the industry works: project by project. For every project, from the very simple to the most complex, Phoenix gives you the power to make the schedule a valuable tool for managing the job.

The power of Phoenix Project Manager is in the superior graphic bar charts and network views to communicate the value of the schedule. The schedule is easy to filter, communicate project progress, and forecast at-complete status. With Phoenix Project Manager, the schedule is an invaluable management tool to execute successful projects.

Phoenix Project Manager is built on a simple concept of "two clicks to complete". We've redefined how schedules are developed by making Phoenix as easy to use as Microsoft Project ™ , with the robust scheduling discipline required on today's most complex projects. The built-in CPM Checker ensures the quality of the schedule, and the storepoint comparisons demonstrate how the project has progressed over time. Understanding schedule quality is easy with Phoenix Project Manager.

Phoenix Project Manager supports the existing established schedule standards for reporting, schedule discipline and data exchange including Primavera P3, P6 and Microsoft Project 2003 and 2007 formats.

Full Compatibility for Exchanging Schedules
Are your other teams using something else? No problem, Phoenix supports importing and exporting with Primavera 3.1, P5, P6, all versions of Microsoft Project, and any other scheduling software that works with MPX, Microsoft Project XML, CSV, or XER formats.
Tracking Resources
allows you to track resource utilization in all of your projects. Easily identify under and over utilized labor, equipment, and materials.
Compare Project Snapshots (Storepoints)
All of your past schedule updates are saved in the same project file. Phoenix can show you a comparison of the current schedule with any past update to pinpoint exactly which activites took longer than expected to complete or finished early.
