LiquidPlanner upgrades online PM

The LiquidPlanner 3.0 design and integrated social features are reminiscent of the iPad, Facebook and Twitter; combined, they create a dynamic collaboration experience that goes way beyond traditional project management tools.

LiquidPlanner is also extending its priority-based scheduling system with a new 'Packaging' capability, which makes the juggling of dozens of projects easy by providing both macro-prioritisation of projects and micro-prioritisation of individual tasks.

According to MarketWire, co-founder and CEO of LiquidPlanner, Charles Seybold, says: “There is a social design revolution going on in business software. Just like we learnt to design around drivers, we are learning to design collaboration software around teams.”

This effect is accelerating as a new generation of project managers who prefer Facebook and iPads over Microsoft Project start to gain more influence in the workplace, he says.

“LiquidPlanner 3.0 is focused on social project management - it's about people working together to get things done.”
