Celoxis

A Great Tool For Small Team of Independent Consultants

Kommentare: Our overall experience with Celoxis has been on the positive side. The tool has helped us keep all our projects on track and collaborate within the team. The price and value is exceptional, especially for a small team like us. We don't use much of the resource management or other features of the tool, just keeping our projects on a strict timeline and tracking efforts towards various activities.

Vorteile:

1. Web-based Interface 2. Mobile Access 3. Project Gantt Chart and Timelines 4. Alerts and Notifications 5. Time Tracking 6. Ease of Use

Nachteile:

The interface is a bit heavy for a small team like us. I wish I could easily turn off a lot of features that I currently don't use. Yes, there is a way I can turn off costing and billing and other portfolio features, but even after that, I still feel the app needs to have a more light-weighted look and feel.

A great full-featured project management tool

Vorteile:

Celoxis checks all the boxes for engineering project management for me. Prior to Celoxis, we used Microsoft Project: Celoxis incorporates the advanced features of Project in cloud-based tool that provides team collaboration and scheduling that we could not get with Project or most other cloud-based scheduling tools.

Nachteile:

With great options can come a great (big) learning curve: there are so many features in Celoxis, setting up individuals, teams, groups, and roles is critical for a successful launch, and this can be a bit daunting at first glance. However, the Celoxis team did a great job pre-sales of walking us through the tool and it's features, as well as scheduling training for our team post-sales to get up and running in the tool.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: LiquidPlanner, OpenProject, monday.com und Forecast

Warum Celoxis gewählt wurde: Our prior tool did not understand resource management and loading, and had no plans to add those features. It also did not support advanced predecessor conditions (T+/- the start or finish of other tasks, etc.) This caused us to use Microsoft Project to get an accurate schedule, then manually enter the project (or project updates) in the cloud-based tool, for collaboration and tracking. This was just too cumbersome.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Celoxis: While some of the alternative products may have been on par with Celoxis in both price point and feature set, Celoxis that their team presented the best solution and on-boarding experience, and we felt Celoxis would be our fastest way to get up-and-running with the project management capability we needed.

CELOXIS review from an Ops Director

Kommentare: Very happy, its constant new features allow to evolve its configuration until it meets our exact and detailed expectations as a company.

Vorteile:

the Open a Ticket feature: - always respond really quickly - sometimes even implementing recommendations when asking in an open ticket

Nachteile:

the implementation. the matching between workspaces + job roles + permissions is not easy. even though the workspaces are really interesting and usefull, it is kind of difficult to get the right configuration.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Celoxis: price and quality vs other products. customer service. zapier and integration with CRM, outlook, etc workspaced: for added KPIs and info

Try something else first

Kommentare: Fighting with it to do regular project activities.

Vorteile:

Gantt view is useful, calculations generally work

Nachteile:

Difficult to use, most commonly used features are hard to find, effectively an opinionated spreadsheet.

Valuable project management app

Vorteile:

Celoxis offers a lot of value in a project management app for decision-makers and business owners.

Nachteile:

There's no free trial and no features for billing or invoicing but other than that, it's great!
