The Future is Now...
Merlin is the model tool for project management for Mac OS X. Merlin is a compact but powerful project management application, with which each user can effortlessly plan a variety of projects.
Apart from the necessary and contained functions for project management, Merlin offers important features which are needed during projects. Thus Merlin contains a complete risk management, a file management with version control and also an issue tracking. Even a specialized CRM is firmly integrated in Merlin. Each activity and event can be send to iCal. A specialized website created by Merlin offers an easy base for communication to project members working with other operating systems.
Collaborative Project Management with Merlin 2.5
ProjectWizards Unveils Public Beta Version of Merlin 2.5
ProjectWizards’ Merlin 2.5 brings collaborative networking and increased functionality to its successful Macintosh-based project management tool!
Melle, Germany, October 16, 2007: Project management consultants ProjectWizards are pleased to announce the beta release of Merlin 2.5.
The biggest new feature of Merlin 2.5 is its multi-user capability. “We recognize that project management is a collaborative effort; now Merlin 2.5 enables project managers to work together to get real-time feedback on their projects, not only in a local area network but also over the Internet,” says ProjectWizards’ CEO Frank Blome.
Merlin 2.5 boasts over 100 exciting new features, Blome says. From the addition of networking capability to the freedom to assign dedicated user- or group-defined access rights to dynamic planning and even bi-directional synchronization with iCal, Merlin 2.5 makes project management a collaborative event, as opposed to a single project manager’s task.
Merlin is a really useful Project Management tool. It is not merely a resource / schedule management solution. It empowers Project Managers to actually manage their projects. (Hendrik van Wyk)
