Project management

Projects and tasks that stay in step with your hours

Not a second tool to keep in sync. The projects you track time on are the projects you plan in, so the hours land on the work itself.

What you can organise

A project page worth opening

Description, your own fields, notes over time and the full task list in one place. No hunting through a shared drive for the last decision.

Tasks with real owners

Assign a task to several people as equals. Everyone sees their own list across every project on one page.

Recurring work

Website maintenance every quarter, a report every year. Define the rhythm once, weekly to yearly, and adopt it per project with its own start date.

Your own fields

Add the fields your business actually uses — a contract number, a deadline, a contact. Defined once for the organisation, filled in per project.

A budget you can watch

Give a project a budget in hours, in money or both. The project page shows how much is used, so you see it running over while there is still time to talk about it.

Estimates that become tasks

Quote the work as a range per line, with the assumptions written down. When the client says yes, every line becomes a task on the project, and the client is created if it did not exist yet.

From estimate to project without retyping

An estimate in Ergosy is a list of lines, each with a low and a high number of hours or days and the assumptions behind it. Send it, and it is locked. Mark it accepted, and Ergosy turns it into a project with a task per line, on an existing project or a new one, for an existing client or a prospect who becomes one. Declined and expired estimates stay in the pipeline, so you know what you quoted and what came of it.

Status, dates and a budget on every project

A project is a lead, active, on hold or completed, has a start and end date, a reference and a contact. Add a budget in hours or money and the project page compares it with the hours written so far. Archive a finished project and it leaves every picker, while its hours stay in every report.

Questions

Frequently asked

Is this a replacement for Jira or Trello?
No. Ergosy holds the work your hours attach to. If your team runs sprints somewhere else, keep doing that.
Can a task have more than one owner?
Yes. Assignees are equals, and everyone sees their own list across every project on one page.
How do recurring tasks know when to appear?
You set a start date and an interval, weekly to yearly, and the task appears on the day it is due, on every project you attached it to.
Can I see whether a project is still within budget?
Yes. Give a project a budget in hours, in money or both, and the project page shows how much of it the written hours have used.
Can I quote before the project exists?
Yes. An estimate has a range per line and its assumptions, can go to a client or a prospect, and turns into a project with a task per line the moment it is accepted.
