If you have been around in the enterprise software industry, you might think that there is nothing new to be added to the project management tools.Yet, that’s not true. Comindware breaks traditional barriers once again by bringing project planning, execution, and - so essential right now - social collaboration into a single platform.
The name of such collaborative platform for project managers is Comindware Project.
Speaking the Silicon Valley language, let’s dive into what’s so disruptive about the new software.
It only requires assigning a task to a person and defining a priority. The rest is scheduled automatically. Sounds so simple that I’m surprised it hasn’t been invented before.
Keeping that in kind, Comindware designed its Gantt Chart to be flexible to any uncertainties. Let’s say someone on a team didn’t complete one of the tasks on time. What happens next? Unfinished work and the plan itself are automatically shifted to the future. And there’s no longer a misperception that “everything goes as planned”. You know an actual project status.
Comindware Project, built on top of Comindware Team Network, a social tool for professional collaboration, provides project managers with a native environment where they can effectively collaborate on any cases related solely to work. All activity streams are organized the way you can jump into even into the unfamiliar part of the project, but still immediately get all you need to know.
To add on top of the core value of the social side of Comindware Project, the software also has a gamification grain in it. Managers can award the best performers and announce it publicly in certain Rooms, if desired.

Project Planning in a new format
Starting from where it all began, Comindware didn’t take traditional project planning for granted and decided to change a common approach. Thanks to Comindware’s project planning tool, now there is no need to manually create a whole project plan with complex task dependencies sorted among various employees.It only requires assigning a task to a person and defining a priority. The rest is scheduled automatically. Sounds so simple that I’m surprised it hasn’t been invented before.
Execute better than planned
One more interesting finding concerns the post-planning stage. The typical issue, known e.g. in MS Project, is that project plans stay static. In case anything changes, the entire plan needs to be adjusted accordingly.![]() |

Let’s get social, shall we?
A vast number of companies are now trying to incorporate a social element into their product babies, either it’s a CRM, ERM, or any other type of the software system. Unfortunately, as far as we see, it ends up that the very same social element lives apart from the system. Employees eventually stop using it for work purposes, and what supposed to serve as a useful tool, now is just distracting.Comindware Project, built on top of Comindware Team Network, a social tool for professional collaboration, provides project managers with a native environment where they can effectively collaborate on any cases related solely to work. All activity streams are organized the way you can jump into even into the unfamiliar part of the project, but still immediately get all you need to know.
