Projectplace started in 1998 which makes us one of the first Softwares as a Service. In the late 90's, when dial-up was still the prevailing method of connecting to the Internet, it was a cutting edge feature to be able to access your project from any computer (with an Internet connection). More than a decade later, that is no longer the case.
Wifi, 3g, 4g, laptops, and above all smartphones mean that these days we are connected to the Internet practically all the time and the way we work has changed with it. We expect to be able to answer our email and keep up to date whether we are at home, in the office or on the move. This means that it did not come as a complete surprise to us that one of the most requested developments on Projectplace Ideas - our forum for customer feedback - is to...
Every year we send out a user satisfaction survey to the people who are actively using Projectplace asking for your feedback about a number of things. It's very exciting times for us to read your feedback; I think we are all feedback junkies; I know for certain that I am.
So what do the results tell us? Well I have to tell you that it was a pleasure going through the results. We had 5748 answers to the survey which meant that we will donate 11496 euro to the Hunger Project - helping people help themselves. And most of you are happy users. Here are some happy numbers:
80% of you are satisfied with the Projectplace service
80% of you think that you are more efficient because you use Projectplace
80% of you think that you have better collaboration in your team because of Projectplace
This is very exciting reading for us and we are proud...
Another release day! We are currently developing the next generation of collaborative planning and a lot of things have happened in this project. But first some things that will actually make a difference for you tomorrow.
Search in Issues
We have focused our quality efforts on improving the search function in Issues This is the currently highest ranking idea in our quality backlog:

Tonight we release the new search function for Issues. We have fixed problems and implemented a multiple select function in the new and improved search screen. This is what you'll find now:
As you can see you can now easily combine the criteria you need to search for. The result can be further filtered and/or exported to excel. We have also removed the old and not so well functioning print of Issues to instead shape up the excel export.
A complete list of what we've done in Issues:
-Fixed the filters to...
In the last development sprint leading up to tonight's release we have had three main focus areas:
- Preparing for the new collaborative planning
- Taking the Document Manager out of beta
- And improving the quality of the system by heavy bug squashing
Document Manager has grown up!
We have decided that the Document Manager is stable and great and should be part of our core add-on offering. It needed a few little tweaks for us to be able to let it fly without the beta tag but now we've fixed it and translated the interface to all our supported languages: Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Norwegian and Swedish. This means that we consider Document Manager ready. Some of the things that we fixed include:
-Interface in all supported languages
-Support for longer file names
-The icon in the dock will bounce only a few times when there's an event and then stop (http://ideas.projectplace.com/feedbacks/76577-project-place-plugin-document-manager/)
Bug Squashing
We have fixed...
Tonight is release night!
Here's what you can expect from tomorrow and a sneak of what we're doing in the future. I just got word from our Product Owner that the release has been successful...
Image Preview in Documents
First things first! This is something that we have had a lot of requests and votes for at Projectplace Ideas and I'm very happy that it has now been prioritised. We have also involved our Advisors in the design. We make it possible to preview images stored in the Document Tab in Projectplace. You can preview single images or flip through all images in a folder. You will also be able to lock, update and version manage images just like any other file in Projectplace. Here's a look at what you can expect tomorrow :
