Commonality
Each product is a Web App designed for specific management processes with simple drag and drop functionality thus reducing the user interface clutter and complexity.
- Our graphical interface allows you to visualize your data from enterprise systems and control it with drag and drop gestures so you can quickly make decisions!
- Use the Transfer Bars feature to move project data to your favourite AI program for analysis. AI prefers JSON format over CSV files but we provide both.
- Scheduling Flexibility: The built in scheduling engine rules automatically calculate time phased results for the charts, reports and dashboards.
- Save money: Why buy expensive desktop scheduling tools or expensive and clunky cloud based tools when you can buy our products instead and regain control of your data and your valuable time.
- Track tasks and resource forecasts with ease. Create projects, tasks and resource assignments manually or import existing data using our drag and drop Spreadsheet Sync feature.
- Control multiple baselines for enhanced baseline visualizations and progress reporting. Using the Spreadsheet sync you could in theory maintain unlimited baselines.
- Our tools will quickly provide visibility into the organizations work to make sure your people are never overloaded. This is easily done compared to MS Project. Stop wasting time with out-of-date project management tools that don't cut it any more.
- Our Web Apps will boost personal productivity because our rules engine is integrated with drag and drop gestures, simplifying any planning and scheduling process.
- All of our products perfectly synchronize with spreadsheet programs to move data in and out of the browser cache, in a clean and simple manner.
- Do your data entry in your favourite Spreadsheet program, then drag and drop the Spreadsheet onto the Client Web App canvas which imports the data, therefore you instantly become more productive.
- Work on one device, publish to the Timebars Cloud then from another device download and continue working, all with one click after logging in.
- You can publish many data sets to the Timebars Ltd. Cloud then later choose which one to download and continue work on. Manage multiple data sets, but only one can be active and rendered on the Dashboard.
- The Timebars Ltd. Cloud Dashboard publishing is done from the Client Web Apps with one click! We provide pre-built yet customizable graphs, line charts, pie charts, bubble charts and tabular reports. (configurable with custom metadata).
- We expose an API that will allow developers to download the entire dataset for analysis locally using desktop tools such as Power BI.
Security
We use HTTPS/TLS end to end encryption just like banks and others do.
Your user name and password is never sent over the internet in the clear, it is sent over a secure HTTP/TLS session.
Higher Security because we don't store Cookies on your device. This means you are never asked to accept cookies, which can be a security risk.
Higher Security because your password is used to encrypt tokens (cookies) that are stored on our server not in your browser, therefore Timebars Ltd. and hackers cannot figure out your password.
Local Data Storage: Our products run on mobile or desktop devices that support modern web browsers. Your data is stored in the browser cache locally; it is never stored on any server unless you buy a Timebars Ltd. Cloud License and choose to publish your data to the Timebars Ltd. Cloud.
