    Visualize everything

    One of the problems with work management today is that it's difficult to see the forest through all the trees. Targetprocess makes it easy to get a distraction-free overview of your projects, with the ability to drill down or scale up for details from any level of the hierarchy.

    Targetprocess product note
    Feature Progress: visualize progress on features, and identify scope creep
    Feature Status: Customize cards to show all important information at a glance
    Features Roadmap: plan and track features on a Timeline
    Program Board: manage dependencies between teams through iterations
    RAG Status: visualize the RAG status of your projects and spot items that require attention
    +2
    Relations

    Visualize relations between work items to quickly see and manage all dependencies and blockers.

    Customize cards

    Customize the information that's displayed on cards to get all important information at a glance.

    Scale

    Put your project data on a timeline (not a Gantt chart!) to see work over time. Set milestones to reflect important company dates.

    Visual Encoding

    Visual encoding can help you make better-informed decisions. Use RAG status tracking to visualize the status of work items.

    Consistent data across projects, teams, tools, and departments.

    It's great to have a wealth of project data, but it won't do you any good if you can't understand it. Visualizations at every level of your organization's hierarchy help you to quickly analyze your data in order to make smarter decisions faster.

    Use our iOS and Android mobile apps to bring your favorite boards with you wherever you go.

    Use any combination of practices and methods in your own custom process

    Don't try to shoehorn your process into an inflexible tool, and don't assume a good software tool will solve all your process woes. A good tool on top of a bad process will only accelerate poor results. Targetprocess can help you to better understand your process by showing you what is going right and what is going wrong, so that you can make the necessary changes to improve.

    Identify and visualize problems and risks

    It's impossible to constantly oversee all problems, risks, and opportunities associated with your domain of work. That's why Targetprocess does it for you. Customize your criterion for what constitutes risk, and get automatic notifications from the system about things you need to know.

    Early alerts

    Plan for success, but prepare for failure. Targetprocess can help you to recognize failures faster, so you waste less resources on less-than-optimal work.

    Rank and prioritize according to your own custom criteria

    Figuring out what work needs to be done next in a project can sometimes feel like unravelling the Gordian Knot. There's so many different opinions and factors to consider, and it's difficult to keep everything straight. Use Targetprocess to automatically factor in these considerations so you can make an informed decision on your best next move.

    Manage people to optimize workloads across your organization

    Management can often be chaos. It's hard to keep track of your most important resource (people) and make sure everyone is where they need to be with the right tools to succeed. Use our People Allocation solution to manage this problem and better understand your teams' capacities.
