Publisher: CodeTwo

Jelenia Gora, Poland, April 23th 2012 - CodeTwo Task Workflow is a free Outlook add-in for task and project management. It not only helps to tackle users" individual tasks, but when combined with Outlook synchronization software, like CodeTwo Public Folders or Microsoft Exchange Server, it turns Outlook into a real project management platform with many powerful, ready-to-go management features. What"s more, the program is completely free of cost. - The idea of CodeTwo Task Workflow emerged from our individual needs. Since we use Microsoft Outlook on a daily basis, we simply wanted our projects to stay in it as well. - says Michal Bednarz, co-founder of CodeTwo - Our newest Outlook plugin adds a bunch of new features to Outlook, and since we use it along with CodeTwo Public Folders, there"s no need for us to use any other software for project management anymore. - he adds. CodeTwo Task Workflow is especially powerful when used along with Outlook sharing software, like CodeTwo Public Folders or Microsoft Exchange Server. It seamlessly integrates with Outlook and adds some additional features that make working on shared tasks in Outlook as easy as pie. The new task pane enables assigning team members to tasks, adding work time and work effort values, as well as editing substatuses and notification settings. Whenever changes are made to a given item, the program can notify all assigned people by sending automatic emails to them. One of the handiest features the program offers are the workflow statistics. With a single click project managers can generate HTML or XLS files containing detailed information about each task, along with work time and effort values. The output data can then be easily analyzed or transformed to other formats supported by Microsoft Excel. The statistics are available for single tasks, as well as for a group of selected Outlook items. - What is great about CodeTwo Task Workflow is that it is flexible and can be used in many different ways. - says Szymon Szczesniak, Marketing Manager of CodeTwo - For instance, it perfectly fits to the agile project management and other programming workflows, and this is just one of the examples of how this program can be used. This and over a dozen of other free tools for Outlook, together with full documentation, application examples and use-case scenarios are available on the producer"s website, www.codetwo.com.
