Instantis provides a web-based application for social networking and collaboration. Ideal for large enterprises, Instantis offers a flexible dashboard of in-house use. An innovative user interface means that it’s configurable and secure. In terms of usability, we think Instantis is unmatched, providing day deployment measures.
Pricing is on request, but we think it’s worth it if you’re looking to complete projects on time, and within budget. It’s got a fast turnaround too, allowing businesses to realize strong ROI in a short time frame. With high security and clear configuration, more projects can be completed on time.

In our expert opinion, agile project management tools do not come any better than Yodiz. The tool is suitable for teams of all sizes, and offers a comprehensive range of innovative features.
Kanban Scrum Boards, Issue Tracking Software and Team Discussions are just three of the exciting options available to Yodiz users, meaning that there is a lot to explore when you first get started. In addition, Yodiz offers excellent time tracking tools and many of the other features found on other leading project management software tools.
The good news is that Yodiz offers free access for up to three users. Whilst this may only be sufficient for managing very small projects, it does give you an excellent chance to get to grips with the site. If you do decide to pay for the product, you can get the full Professional Plan (in other words, every feature of the site) for just $5 per user per month,

Small and medium sized businesses looking for an easy-to-use project management system, should check out Project.co. We believe it represents an excellent choice for maintaining client relationships and ensuring the smoother running of major projects.
Each company project has its own ‘Hub’, where you can see every aspect of the project’s progress. Time tracking, budgeting, calendars, etc etc, it’s all stored in the Hub, giving users a comprehensive overview of the project.
There’s also a great built-in chat function that means you can contact other project members simply by using the @ button. We would have liked to see a few more integration options, but with prices starting at just $8 per user per month, Project.co represents excellent value for SMEs.

For task planning using a visual collaboration tool, we think Trello is hard to beat. It can be used by a wide range of departments including sales, support, HR, and marketing. Trello is a web-based solution that allows businesses to create project requirements making sure everything is completed in the correct order. Digital creation boards, to organize and prioritize actions, are key on this platform. Managers can define workflows easily, assigning work to specific users while setting deadlines.
Trello starts at $5/user/month, but can be scaled up for different levels including Premium and Enterprise. Essentially, we’ve found Trello to be a great way to collaborate with team members. The use of Trello cards allows the team to add comments, members, and documents. In short, Trello is a professional package with high levels of security and the ability to integrate well with applications such as JIRA Cloud, Google Drive, and Slack for increased team collaboration and efficiency.

This digital workspace is designed for small to large businesses, and enables streamlining of processes. We like Notion as a well-rounded workflow platform that has options for managing projects, records, calendars, notes, and more. Key features we appreciate are the portfolio tracker, and database management, data export, and documentation tools.
There are four Notion pricing plans starting at $10/user/month. These provide more features as businesses scale up. For on-the-go options, we really like Notion as it has apps for iOS and Android devices. System integration is provided by an application programming interface (API) to third-party apps such as Twitter, Figma, and Google Sheets for additional streamlining. Essentially, businesses that have workers in remote locations can manage, view, and fulfil tasks for complete project tracking.
