AccuPlan v.2 Integrates MS Outlook with Scheduling and Planning

I-SSIS Inc. has announced the release of AccuPlan V2, the latest version of the most feature-packed and economical project management solution in its category. AccuPlan takes care of all your project planning and communication needs - everything from scheduling tasks, to allocating people and resources, creating budgets, producing charts and graphs, generating reports and much more.

What is New: Now you can send tasks/deadlines etc to all or selected stakeholders using MS Outlook. You can also add certain tasks to your calendar so that you are reminded in time go get ready for the task. Since these entries go directly into your Outlook Calendar you can use MS calendar sharing to share your activities with others.

We believe that successful execution of projects starts with Right People, effective utilization of Resources and AccuPlan.
