Here is a brief description of some of the new things in TimeLog Project.
TimeLog Project gives management a new range of tools to create incentives for employees. Make budgets for each employee by setting goals for e.g. external registration percent, added value and average hourly rates.
These key figures – or KPI's – are shown in a personal report, which allows the employee to follow up on the goals set for her. A central key figure can even be shown on the front page of TimeLog Project.
Budgeting and the KPI report are especially powerful for consultancies and IT-companies who bill their work.

With simple means you are able to increase the security in an internet-application. The below mentioned advice and tips apply for not only TimeLog Project but all other SaaS solutions and most of the advice also applies for IT-systems in general.
1. Have a security policy
Have some overall guidelines for using the SaaS-solution and for handling security. Communicate your safety policy to all employees – and be sure to explain why you have these policies. Communication is especially important when having a strict policy, otherwise, employees might think of it as harassment of employees which can make them counteract the policy.
Keep the security policy as simple as possible and avoid long technical explanations. The most important thing to remember when it comes to security policies is that it should be easy to explain to the employees. A simple security policy is much better than a complex and technical oriented policy.

The following paragraph is an excerpt taken from our new case study with the Danish bio-pharmaceutical company Novozymes. Read full case study
"The daily use of the add-on module TimeLog Extranet has also been positively received and is primarily used by Novozymes' management to keep tabs on projects: "It has given management a tool that enables them to continuously monitor our projects, which provides them with a solid overview of the status of the department's different projects."
Furthermore, TimeLog Project's reporting tools are often used. Especially the workload reporting tool provides the project manager with the option of getting an overview of the individual project employee's current and future workload capacity. This is often used in combination with the frequently used status reports for Novozymes' management.

The opportunities presented to us in futuristic sci-fi movies are now closer than ever to being part of today’s reality. Globalization, more sophisticated technological development and increasing consumer individualization have over the last few years accelerated with lightning speed. We are part of a revolutionizing era which, based on the number of inventions per capita, is comparable to the agricultural revolution more than 10,000 years ago.
A question however remains. How will the inventions of the 21st century take shape? This question inspired us to look more closely at the hot and future trends within this development of technology and what impact this may have on the future development of TimeLog’s products and the user experience.
