What are the benefits of using Cora project management software?

Cora project management software digitizes all your data and documents and brings them all together into the one, central hub.

 

It streamlines all your processes and systems so that everyone works in the same, standardized way. Your teams, business units and departments all work towards the same strategic objectives instead of working in siloes.

 

And it provides you with both granular visibility into each individual project, and with that 30,000 foot bird’s-eye view of your portfolio as a whole.

 

Can Cora be integrated with existing platforms and software solutions?

Crucially, Cora can be seamlessly integrated with any existing processes, platforms or software solutions.

With the result that whatever systems you currently employ, around for instance financials, resourcing or risk management, will all now be coordinated and organized using the one system. Making you the control tower, in charge of orchestrating each of the elements in your projects, programs and portfolio.

 

Will we get buy-in from our employees once we install Cora?

Cora has been designed and built as a no code low code platform to ensure immediate buy-in from all your employees. This means that it gets configured twice.

First, we take the out-of-the-box Cora and configure it for you so that it does exactly what you need it to.

Then, once you ‘go live’, the users that you’ve given access to will quickly and easily configure it for themselves, by taking the wide range of templates that are available to them, and dragging and dropping whichever features and elements they require for that particular functionality.
