Zilicus Unveils Enhanced Web-Based Project Management Software

By Carolyn J Dawson, TMCnet Contributor

Zilicus Solutions has unveiled an enhanced version of the Web-based project management software, ZilicusPM. The budget, cost, expense and billing management offering, available in the latest version, ZilicusPM 6.0, assists project managers to supervise project economics in an extremely efficient manner.


A project monitoring and control mechanism needs to be in place in order to precisely forecast the time and manner in which an intricate project will be executed successfully. The significance of the project tracking and control system is not recognized by several enterprises.

Due to several varying causes like risks, occurrences and ruthless deadlines, however, projects may be delayed or disrupted.

Project teams can now track the health of the project with the Gantt chart, Web-based risk management software and issue tracking software, available in ZilicusPM. Version 6.0 of ZilicusPM also comprises project financials management software, ensuring the accurate tracking and controlling of project revenue.

Project budget and billing administration, project price estimation and monitoring, and project expenses monitoring and endorsement are some the features in the latest release of ZilicusPM. In the event of a project exceeding the pre-defined budget, the details will be shown on ZilicusPM.

The actual financial health of an individual project, along with portfolio of projects, will be displayed on the dashboard.

ZilicusPM assists project managers in generating in-depth work-breakdown-structure along with schedule, thereby giving a practical assessment of time and money. Project managers will be able to indicate project asset expense rate and billing rate in its own currency.

With ZilicusPM, project managers will also be able to spell out price evaluation at any task and sub-task level.

 Project expenditures can also be monitored at a task and sub-task level. Comprehensive expenses monitoring and management offering is provided by ZilicusPM, ensuring the safeguard of all expense items. Project expense sheets issued by team members are made available by ZilicusPM for approval from the project manager.

Several expense reports are also accessible to team members and project managers. ZilicusPM retains an audit log for expense approval history for project risks, problems and tasks.

Other features included in the latest version are the ability to set e-mail preference, customizable expense categories, and an improved timesheet submission and approval mechanism.
