With a Basic account, you can manage a single project. With the Premium or Enterprise version, you can create and manage as many projects as you wish.
Gouti offers a calendar view of projects. The project calendar covers all project activities. A specific user view, 'My Calendar,' is available, displaying their tasks, issues, and planned actions. Users can switch between a view colored by activity type and one colored by project. It 's also possible to visualize project activity through a configurable Gantt chart based on project size. A Macro-Schedule complements the Gantt chart, providing a high-level project overview for presentations, for example. You can customize the displayed information and formatting with color choices. Finally, a Multi-Project view, similar to the Macro-Schedule, provides a consolidated schedule overview of all your projects.
A task is part of a schedule. It is planned, can have predecessors, and includes a duration, workload (in man-days), and start and end dates. You 'll find it in the project calendar and the responsible person 's personal calendar. Example of a task: 'Draft the Project Charter.' An action, however, is not tied to a schedule. It has no duration but a target date and typically takes little time to complete. An action can serve as a reminder or a to-do item. You 'll find it in your personal calendar. Example of an action: 'Remember to call the client.'
Risk management, a critical aspect of project monitoring, is integrated into our project management solution. A dedicated 'Risks' section allows you to identify and track risks by specifying their likelihood and impact. They are then classified by severity (low, medium, high, or very high). You can define risk responses and associate actions to mitigate risks, for example.
In Gouti, you 'll find a financial management section under the 'Progress and Control' menu on the left. In this section, you can track your costs, whether for human resources or other expenses, in monetary units or man-days. You can also record and track billing, found in a 'List of Deadlines.' For more advanced features, the Finance module allows you to monitor and manage your projects ' financial aspects. You can set a forecasted budget, track actual expenses, analyze budget variances, and manage financial aspects with clear indicators.
Only users with update or read-only rights on the project can view all project information. The collaborative tool offers different levels of access, allowing users to see limited or all project information. The project manager assigns these rights. By default, a user associated with a project only sees the activities assigned to them. To grant more access, their rights must be modified in the 'Rights Management' section on the project 's general information sheet.
With update rights, you have full control over all project information and variables. You can add tasks, actions, issues, deliverables, risks, change requests, etc., effectively acting as the project manager. With read-only rights, you can only view certain project information (depending on your access level) without modifying any parameters. However, it 's possible to choose whether update rights include the ability to modify user rights on the project.
No, individuals assigned tasks, actions, or issues will immediately see them in their Gouti account. They can then update task progress, descriptions, and leave comments for the project manager.
Gouti is a collaborative tool with a defined framework. Your collaborator only sees what you assign to them. They have access to their task, issue, and action lists, as well as their schedule view. They can view details of their tasks, issues, and actions, access attached documents, report progress, and leave comments to notify the project manager. However, if you grant them read-only rights in the 'Rights Management' section, they can view project information without modifying it.
You can attach documents to tasks, actions, issues, and deliverables from Dropbox, OneDrive/SharePoint, and Google Drive. Collaborators can view these documents by accessing the relevant task, action, etc. With Gouti 's Document Storage module, you can store documents without using an external solution.
In Gouti, comment sections are available for each activity. You can write comments related to a task, action, issue, or deliverable and notify the project manager, assigned resources, or the creator. They will receive a notification in their notification center. Additionally, users can be notified of their assignment to a project, task, action, or issue and receive progress tracking notifications.
Gouti is a flexible solution that adapts to numerous project management methodologies. You can structure your projects according to approaches such as PRINCE2®, PMP®, or Agile methods.
