phpCollab

Introduction

phpCollab is a project management and collaboration system. Features include: team/client sites, task assignment, document repository/workflow, gantt charts, discussions, calendar, notifications, support requests, weblog newsdesk, invoicing, and many other tools.

Features

• phpCollab is a project management system. It is comprised of two interfaces:
  • User, which includes admin, employees, co-workers, etc.
  • Client.
• A central login handles everything.
  • If a client logs in, then the client is directed to the client interface.
  • If a team user logs in, then they are directed to the user interface.

User Features

• Within each project you have the following features:
  • Project Overview
  • Phases (optional)
  • Tasks & Sub tasks
  • Discussions
  • Team Members
  • Linked Content (uploaded files)
  • Notes
• In addition, you also have a few global features such as:
  • Reports
  • Calendar
  • Search
  • Bookmarks
• One very useful feature is the Home page. This page pulls up all the relevant items for that individual user in one place. This is also the first page that a user sees when logging into the system. So, a user can easily determine what tasks are due, or what projects they are involved in.

Client Features

• Having a unique interface for your clients to use allows your clients to interact with the project team members.
  • Please note that you must publish any of the items mentioned in order for a client to be able to see it.
  • At all times you maintain full control of the project.
• When a client first logs into phpCollab they are presented with a Home page that shows all projects that have been created for them. Once a client selects a project they will have the following options:
  • Project Team - a list of users assigned to the project.
  • Team Tasks - all the tasks assigned to the project team
  • Client Tasks - all the tasks assigned to the client
  • Document List - a list of all the documents uploaded in Linked Content
  • Bulletin Board - interfaces with the Discussion section found in the user interface
  • Support - can submit a task as a support request to the project team

Publishing

• By default, a client will not be able to view anything.
  • Throughout a project you have the option of publishing items, such as tasks, linked content, team members, etc. Once published, your clients will be able to view the item.
  • You also have the option of un-publishing items as well.

What it does NOT do

• phpCollab is a fantastic program that can give you the tools necessary to manage all of your tasks and projects. However, there is one misconception.
  • phpCollab does not publish your web site. phpCollab manages your projects, not your web site.
