Background

Maintaining a PM's statistics on the income of developers in a spreadsheet is a bad idea. A large number of sheets requires a lot of time to check. If each of these were also fulfilled differently, the whole process turns into development hell.

It's hard to make effective decisions when you can't understand what's going on with the developer's workload. Add here project income figures and a necessity to fill the invoices of the work performed.

The Piedwork platform is a great solution that provides a clean and smart view of statistical data collected by a wide range of departments within a company. It visualizes project information in the form of understandable graphs. This allows you to instantly understand the current situation on a project and make the right decisions.

Launch Project

Objectives

Speed up the decision-making process on projects based on summary data. This includes information about the hours worked, the amounts of income accrued, invoices issued, and the funds received from them.

Provide an opportunity to analyze reports on the work done. This is visualized in the form of hours and the corresponding amounts of accrued income for each project, employee, and even manager.

Avoid the human error factor when filling out reports on the employee's work done during the day. Unify and simplify the reporting format. Get a centralized reporting system for Sales and PM departments.

How it works

In a Piedwork account, you should start with creating your project and specialist profiles first. Then combine these using a contract that specifies the terms of work. After that, you will need to add reports on the job done. You get the opportunity to view statistics from the side of the project, manager, specialist, or contract, as well as general analytics.

Testimonials

Artem Belousov

CEO Natife

The versatility to create reports in Piedwork is excellent! I can manipulate how the report looks, what it contains, and what data is available. For a small business, it provides an easy and fast process system for everything from accounts payable to accounts receivable. I finally understand precisely where our money is going each month, and am able to recognize patterns and strategize.
