Under the attack of new coronary pneumonia, it seems that overnight, most enterprises in China have accepted the concept of online office and cloud collaboration. Among them, the demand for online project collaboration surged. According to media survey reports, online project management tools were applied for an average of 5.89 hours per day during the epidemic period, making it the hottest SaaS application for telecommuting during the epidemic. Nowadays, enterprises have resumed work for six times, and more and more enterprises are aware of the necessity and importance of online project management. It is no longer a trend to move project work completely to the cloud, but a hard demand. Choosing the right cloud-based project management tool is the first step in launching an enterprise online project. Before the enterprise carried out all employees working online, it mainly focused on the establishment of regularity and work schedule for employees. Most online office software used only completed the internal management business of the enterprise mainly based on work plan, document collaboration and attendance. It was far from enough in the implementation of project work, such as task decomposition, schedule management, cost control, project tracking, etc., which was difficult to meet the project management needs of the enterprise. In contrast, CORNERSTONE online project management software is based on online office and cloud collaboration, helping enterprises to easily solve project management problems, control project progress online in real time and improve project management efficiency.

Cornerstone is recommended for the following reasons:

I. In the project planning stage, through task decomposition, targeted tracking and real-time control of project progress Online project collaboration is essential to maintain high efficiency. First of all, we can complete a basic project plan using CORNERSTONE's own template. We can choose to add, delete or refine selected tasks, or insert/add multiple subordinate activities or sibling activities, and plan the duration and time for the task. When you set a context between tasks, the system will automatically adjust the associated task time for you.

Next, assign the project tasks to team members. You can fill in the assigned responsibility for a task or you can assign tasks in batches based on roles.

II. Dynamic information shared in real time to enhance the reliability of project information

The typical project management tool is based on the behavior of filling out spreadsheets, which helps with planning, but this static data entry method is as primitive as filling out data on a blackboard during project execution, and the information becomes slow and difficult to update. CORNERSTONE is based on transaction behavior and strong project management logic, through real-time independent calculation, so that information data accurate and reliable, traceable. In addition, the system will audit and track each project activity or deliverable in real time, so that each project member can obtain a unique, consistent, real-time and accurate view of information, ensure that project planning and implementation are integrated into one, and completely eliminate misunderstandings caused by multiple versions of truth, helping management to make effective decisions.
