"What I like the most about Work Otter is how simple and intuitive it is to work with and I am saying that compared to all other systems I’ve tried before. Overall it can be simple but it has advanced features that come in handy for a project manager..., features such as status reporting, risks mitigation, changes to the project etc. Another feature that made a huge difference is that I can subscribe to a certain report and WorkOtter sends me regular emails with updates so I don’t have to log in all the time to see what’s happening to my project. I am not a fan of cloud based systems and that’s how Work Otter works but so far it’s working so let’s see how it goes…" - Juliano Sicuto

It is great to have multiple projects set up within an overall project in portfolios. The dashboard shows exactly what needs to be taken care of (due and past due) as well as any issues that have come up. A great prioritization tool for PMs. Integration works well with MS Project and Office365. Eas...ily tailored without having to customize software. Built in reporting easily to chart and manipulate. Helpful segmentation. By people/roles/resources. What-if scenario tool is helpful before employing into live view. Missed milestones. Risks. Forecast v Utilization provides an at a glance look of needed areas of improvement. Much easier to use than others: getting started and maintenance. It’s a little nit picky, but the colors of the charts. More muted colors or cooler colors are more visually appealing. The dashboard featuring past due, due or high risk needs

WorkOtter has been great so far! I am usually a bit nervous whenever we pick up a new piece of software to start using, especially with something as critical as project management tools. The WorkOtter support team was great with onboarding and getting the team up to speed relatively quickly.Now tha...t we’ve got the software set up and have had some time to move our projects over, we’re starting to see the full benefits. The email reports have been great and were really easy to customize to my liking.Clean dashboards seem to be a really popular feature these days and WorkOtter’s are pretty great. I like that I can keep the information I need right at the top and have other, less important information pushed down the page. Customizing the layout to my preferences was straightforward.All in all, my experience with the software has been great. It’s comforting to know that if any questions do come up, the support team is always responsive.
