Building a Collaboration Website
Permalink 1 user found helpful
I am a newbie and just joined Concrete5. The software is incredible. Thank you!
I am finishing up a pilot site that will include a collaboration or project management section / page.
What are folks using for this purpose?
Anyone integrating Zoho projects, Basecamp, etc.http://online-project-management-review.toptenreviews.com/....
My level of project management will be general, or basic: project, project description, milestones, tasks, resources, etc.
Thanks, ChadStrat for all the great "Add-Ons," ProBlog and Social. I am now reviewing the ProEvents Add-on, the Contact Directory Add-on by Concrete5 and the Mailing List Add-on by Tony.

LooksTechnical,
That's an excellent idea. especially if it snycs with ProEvents or the Calendar Add-ons.
Please keep me posted.
Edit: working on my final page, going to link in Zoho projects or a team collaboration page
Attached is my current member page that also links to Zoho Project Management

Have also used numerous Zoho products - they actually overall are awesome, but in the greater pool of awesomeness ended up being useless for me.
My clients want specific deliverables.
For my own admin I want minimal admin.
For me this means ProjectPier for project management and detailed time reporting (if required).
Otherwise, the rest of the biz in invoiced through WHMCS.

Don't pay for stuff you don't have to, or that is no better than what you can get free.
Widest used application for this is BaseCamp - very useful collaborative and project management tool - costs a heap and ActiveCollab is better and costs even more, ongoing.....
FREE opensource alternative is ProjectPier - even has a BaseCamp skin - can't tell the dif mostly. :)
Many other alternatives that will cost you heaps and in the end you won't be any more satisfied. Clients are happier with this than even advanced options like LiquidPlanner - go for gold with PP.
ProjectPier even has time tracking and you mark off what is billable or not - as well as to be billed or billed, per project, client, task, etc...
Heaps of options - great - better than the paid options.
I use WHMCS for billing, as we also host, etc...

Based on your posts I just created a project pier site...I now have the main site folder and in that folder, the project pier folder...I'm wondering if I can install a Concrete5 theme in the main site folder without compromising the project pier folder?

Don't do that. You'll almost certainly run into a conflict with the main executable file of both applications there.
Because this is a separate application, not an add-on to Concrete5, you'll need to do some programming to integrate the two.

Thanks! That makes sense...I appreciate your feedback.
will be very basic level of project management with clients - projects-milestones- updates -comments etc
