Genius Inside Launches Genius Project4Domino V5.0 - Greater and Easier Project Management for MS Project Users

New York USA, Montréal Canada, Lindau Germany and Geneva Switzerland, September 27th, Genius Inside, the leader in Domino based enterprise project management solutions, today announced the availability of the latest version of its widely successful project management software for Domino users - Genius Project4Domino V5.0. Genius Project4Domino provides a sophisticated web based tool for managing a multitude of projects from start to finish. The latest version allows Project Management to manage portfolios of projects and easily assess project status at a high level and contains enhancements to boost the functionality of a customer’s existing MS Project environment.

More Intuitive and Configurable User Interface, Including Easy Access “Hot Buttons” - Provide Flexibility to All Team Members and Management
“We wanted to make project management software that was more intuitive and easy to use for project teams, while simultaneously providing the information management needs in a crisp, high level format. With this latest version, we have been able to do that by providing a friendlier user interface that reduces the learning curve and gives a lot of information at one glance saving money and time for effective project management,” said Christophe Borlat, Genius Inside CEO and General Manager of Genius Inside.

Managers today need to be able to quickly and easily view critical pieces of project information to make decisions. Now with the easy access hot buttons which display on each page of the site, a manager can instantly access all basic document management functions such as security, file attachments, file distribution and more without leaving the page.

With easy to design tab driven navigation tools, managers can design and personalize their own project portfolio views based on the information they need. Borlat continued “Individual team members can quickly access their own particular project details without excessive layers of navigation by merely searching for the particular project by name, saving time.”


Enhanced Gantt Chart and Analytics Modules Allow Greater Reporting and Project Analysis
The Enhancements to the Gantt chart in the Genius Planner module of this version allow for greater detailed planning and planning across multiple projects. For example, portfolios of projects can be managed and viewed across multiple project criteria enabling customers to simultaneously manage multiple complex projects. Additionally, greater customizable reporting features have been added.

Another key component of Genius Project4Domino V5 is the new Analytics Module that allows Project4Domino users to “data mine” their own project’s relevant data. This allows them to drill down into detailed information, re-format displays, and to get graphical views with accurate on-line project data to better assess project issues or components that need to be modified. Additionally, Genius Project4Domino 5.0 now supports Open Office and allows pre populating of open office documents, making the software available to an even wider user base.

Echo-groep,nv, a leading concrete manufacturer chose Genius Project4Domino V 5.0 because it best suited all of their project management needs in one easy to navigate solution. “Genius Project4Domino V5.0 is a sophisticated product that easily works with our existing Domino infrastructure, so our investment is minimal and it has been very easy to deploy to all our users.
