On Friday, 19th of September 2008 the web-based project management software ZCOPE celebrated its official launch. After a closed four month beta test with 400 companies involved, the platform is now available for the public.

Bregenz, 19th of September 2008. Project management need not be uninspiring and complicated. Based on the motto „Project management is fun!“ say the creators of ZCOPE, an on-line service allowing the administration of complex projects with a few simple mouse clicks. ZCOPE is self-explanatory, a plus for new users.

The three classic project management areas of tasks, dates and budjets are organised with quality and simplicity via ZCOPE. Only necessary data is maintained. Bernd Hepberger, Zcope project leader explains, „We want to focus on the realisation of projects, not the planning. The easy handling motivates the users to keep their data up to date.“

ZCOPE exceeds the usual project management functions. Additionally the tool offers document management and a so-called project blog. Hence itʻs fully Web 2.0. No more e-mail-flooding. All important information is saved centrally and is always accessible.

Bernd Hepberger believes „Controlling communication is very important to almost all project managers. Zcope is the perfect solution for this. And the project blog was a hit with the beta testers.“ 

ZCOPE ensures your projects are controlled by YOU! - a promise the developer will keep now and in the future. www.getzcope.com offers an overview of future updates, such as multi-project management and budgeting functions.

„Our goal with ZCOPE is to establish a new standard for web-based project management. Alongside the extensive customer support this means consistent developments. Several special updates are planned in the near future.“ Oliver Wolff, CEO of HID GmbH, the company behind ZCOPE.
