Compare Epicflow vs Price&Cost vs Kanbanize

Software Description:

Despite the evolution of project management thought, there’s still a feeling in all of us that we’re not there yet. No absolute solution is in sight.

Modeling the complexity of multi-project reality is a challenge. Too many project management tools try to account for all factors. Often, enterprise products overwhelm and don't help.

Tool-less approaches take the other extreme, attempting to simplify but unable to deal with reality that doesn’t fit theory.

There are people with decades of research behind them; people with decades of experience managing multiple projects; people who push calculations to the edge; people who create amazing and intuitive user interactions. But a team that has all of these is hard to find.

Epicflow combines all of the above. It’s a science- and research-based analytical multi-project management tool that performs calculations in real time speeds. It’s beautiful and intuitive. It facilitates meaningful communication among CEOs, managers, and those executing. It allows companies to find harmony in projects and reach goals.

Epicflow helps you answer these questions:
What should I do today?
What task sequence has the highest pressure?
Do I have enough resources to finish my projects on time?
Do I need to hire or train resources?
How much pressure should I apply to achieve peak performance?

Software Description:

Price&Cost is the best way to stay on top of your project costs.
Estimate, track, and analyse project financials.

Price&Cost allows you to:

• Find cost-effective ways to deliver - Experiment with estimates to see project financials for every scenario. Compare and choose the best one.
• Test "what-if" scenarios for live projects - Discover more profitable ways to deliver projects by simulating different resourcing scenarios. React to changing requirements.
• Monitor project financials - Monitor variations in project Price, Cost, and Margin as the project progresses. Make adjustments and keep your project budget on track.

Estimate and re-estimate until you are certain

Getting an accurate budget estimate is tough. That's why we help you experiment with different scenarios, creating a snapshot for every change. All you have to do is choose the one that makes the most sense to you and your client.

Know where you stand today

Once your project is in full swing, you want to keep up with the changing dynamics — all of which will affect your project financials. This is where Price&Cost comes in and helps you get a clear objective view on things. Every time.

Look into the future

Delivering projects on budget and profitably is a balancing act. Price&Cost allows you test multiple "what-if" scenarios and experiment with your resourcing mid-project, always showing the metrics at the finish line.

Full change management support

Projects are in constant flux — new requirements come to light or major resourcing change is on the horizon. Ensure your budget and margins are safe by calculating the impact of a change request.

We’ll keep you up to date

The best way to manage a project is to be proactive. We take the same approach and periodically remind you to update your actuals and forecast.

Powerful resource management

Keeping spreadsheets with client rates up to date is a thing of the past. Enter all your costs, rates, and overtime rules in one place and use them in any project with a few clicks.

However you prefer to work — we’ll adjust

There isn't any hard set rules how to manage a project. There shouldn't be any limitations to how to estimate and track one either.

Continue using familiar tools. We play nice with others

You have a certain workflow and a trusted set of tools. We get it. That's why we integrate with other tools, rather than ask you to change all of them.
