Web-Based Management Software Debuts
By Joseph Palenchar -- TWICE, 6/3/2002
Ventura, Calif.— Cebiz, a marketing development and consulting company, has developed a Web-based project-management application for suppliers, retailers, custom installers and builders.
The application, called TeamSync Pro, is less expensive than project-management software such as Microsoft Project and Lotus Notes, but offers additional functionality, the company said.
TeamSync functions include budgeting, asset management, calendaring project tasks and events, to-do list management, Gantt charts (a visual chart of project milestones achieved), access to an online storehouse of collateral, file sharing, and generation of reports.
Unlike other applications, TeamSync is available in a hosted version, making it unnecessary for an enterprise to use its own network server. The hosted version costs $12,500 for a one-time setup fee and a minimum $250/month for bandwidth.
The installed version costs $30,000 with a minimum $500/month maintenance contract, which includes tech support for up to two system administrators.
The company specializes in consumer electronics advertising, public relations, collateral, sales and marketing, training, and brand building. It can be reached at (805) 647-3779, or www.cebiz.net.
