Gartner 2012 "Visionary" for Cloud PPM

ONEPOINT Projects evaluated based on ability to execute and completeness of vision.

ONEPOINT Projects, a leading vendor of integrated project and portfolio management solutions, has been selected by leading IT analyst firm Gartner as one of the companies included in their June 2012 "Magic Quadrant for Cloud-Based PPM Services". The new research report evaluating vendors was published by Daniel Stang and Robert Handler and is available for purchase from Gartner's website.

ONEPOINT Projects focuses on integrated and easy-to-use project management solutions that are used by both IT people and non-technical knowledge workers. While originally only providing a SaaS hub in Europe, ONEPOINT Projects recently also launched a new US-based cloud infrastructure that is intended for customers in the Americas. ONEPOINT's development focus for 2012 is to further enhance portfolio and risk management, an even tighter integration of resource management functionality, and two-way syncing with Atlassian's JIRA. In addition, ONEPOINT Projects plans to add a number of practical social project management features as well as integration with Confluence later this year.

ONEPOINT Projects Enterprise Server and ONEPOINT Projects Enterprise Cloud are available for on premise and on-demand/SaaS deployment respectively. ONEPOINT Projects is licensed on a per user and role model providing optional modules such as risk management, program management, a formal project controlling-cycle, and agile planning based on the Scrum framework. Besides being known as an easy-to-use project management solution that can be deployed with little effort, ONEPOINT Projects is also one of the few PPM systems offering rich, integrated resource management functionalities.

"Being named as a 'Visionary' in Gartner's latest research effort makes us being a small software vendor very proud," said Gerald Aquila, founder and CEO of ONEPOINT Projects. "Together with our new HTML5 user interface we are thrilled to make it even easier for users to get started with 'real' project management in the cloud."
