Eclipse SP brings Eclipse Time Server (ETS) into the market incorporating its best practices in time reporting into a brand new product

Eclipse SP, a member of Sigma Group (www.sigma.se), is glad to announce that it has started promoting new time reporting product which is aimed at enhancing effort tracking capabilities.

“Almost every consultancy faces the problem of effort tracking when it comes to charging their clients for services,” says Valery Krasovsky, Eclipse SP Chief Operating Officer. “Eclipse SP consulting experience gave us deep understanding of effort tracking and reporting peculiarities which we incorporated into the ETS-system.”

The system enables users to track efforts on each project, balance workload as well as generate reports on efforts spent and has already been successfully deployed at two software development companies – Fulcrum Web and Dolphin Telecom R&D.

“Reporting has always been a serious issue for all project-oriented companies,” – says Yakov Galkin, Fulcrum Web Director. – “Deploying ETS allowed us to get rid of the problem and turn effort tracking into a simple and transparent procedure.”

“ETS brings efficiency into time tracking and saves project managers much time which they no longer have to waste on consolidating and bringing time reports together,” adds Igor Butenko, Dolphin Telecom R&D Director. “With ETS it all is done fast, accurately and with high productivity.”

“What makes ETS so efficient is that it is designed for consulters by consulters. We speak the same language with those who use the system, we understand their problems and we know how to solve them,” – says Vladimir Beck, Eclipse SP Chief Executive Officer. – “We have been using the system in our company for more than two years gradually adding functionality to the system so that it became a high-performance tool for effort tracking, reporting and management and are happy to share it with other consultancies who face the same problems.”
