Projectplace Launches Next Generation of Mobile Apps for Business Collaboration

Release of new mobile project management tools for iPhone, iPad and Android devices part of Projectplace’s new mobile-focused product strategy

Projectplace, the European leader in online project collaboration, today launched its new mobile app Projectplace Documents, which brings the functionality and user experience of the popular collaboration tool to the world’s most popular mobile devices. Projectplace Documents, available for iPhone, iPad and Android devices, is loaded with features that help project members to work with all important documents related to their projects while on the go. 

The new generation of mobile apps illustrates Projectplace’s new product strategy in which mobile platforms play an important role. The increased commitment to mobile platforms stems from the increased usage of smartphones (70 per cent) and other mobile devices such as the iPad (10 per cent) among Projectplace users. With the new app, Projectplace has made its mobile offering available to Android devices for the first time. 

“We have found that our customers want access to the most popular Projectplace features in our mobile apps,” said Per Wising, product owner at Projectplace. “Many companies put their focus on the development of their software or web-based tools and regard mobile apps as a bonus. At Projectplace we have decided on a unified strategy in which web and mobile app development go hand in hand.”

Projectplace Documents marks the beginning of a new generation of mobile apps. It was designed with a strong focus on document management, which is one of the most popular features. The App enables users to:

•  Read and comment on documents in their projects
•  Discover what documents co-workers are interacting with
•  Save documents on mobile devices for offline reading
•  Easily find the documents they worked with recently 

“We are planning to add a wide range of additional features,” said Wising. “Moving forward, new Projectplace functions will be added simultaneously to the web tool as well as the mobile app.” 

Projectplace Documents is available for iPhone and iPad on AppStore as well as for Android devices on Android Market.
