Cloud-Based Project Management

What is cloud-based project management?

A cloud-based project management software coordinates the planning,

collaborating, monitoring, and delivering of a project. It allows project managers
and teams to get work done using a network of tools available within the software,
rather than using a plain old whiteboard and sticky notes. The use of project
management software scales from business to business—and team to team. But,
in all, it is designed to make managing projects and deadlines easier and more
effective.
