What is Cloud Coach?
What do you like best?
We use Cloud Coach to manage our project timelines, budgets, and resources. It has been an excellent tool for forecasting capacity in a way we never could before.
The user interface is very well built, intuitive, and responsive. We highly recommend Cloud Coach!
We implemented Cloud Coach as a project management tool to manage Implementations and Product Development. It’s a great tool with a really intuitive UI that gives you incredible functionality at your fingertips. And because it’s on the platform, as a Salesforce Admin, I can adjust it as required to fit our process.
The Knowledge base and Academy courses are fantastic; they give users a well-rounded education on how to use the product as they’re starting. And the inbuilt help function and link to videos make it easy to learn about the features whilst in the product.
I have also been super impressed with the care our Customer Success Manager has given us to ensure any questions we’ve had have been answered, and the support team are responsive and efficient.
What do you dislike?
There are a few little feature gaps that I’ve found to be frustrating. The Checklist Project Methodology is relatively new but lacks a bit of functionality. I think they are developing quite rapidly on the product, though, so I’m sure the features for Checklists will increase over time. I would like to be able to use the tabs for Cloud Coach in a Console-style Salesforce app, but it doesn’t work very well, so I find I’m not as efficient when I have to use multiple Chrome tabs instead.
It’s not negative, but there’s so much functionality available to deploy; it’s difficult to implement everything right out of the gate. Thankfully, the Cloud Coach team provides a consultative approach upon deployment to ensure clients address immediate needs and help plan future roll-outs of enhanced features when the time is right.
There is a little bit of learning curve associated with leveraging the platform but once you complete some modules, those hurdles are left behind.
To be honest, there was nothing that I could tell regarding this topic. They would reply so fast to our request and did not leave any space for mistakes! There is nothing that we disliked.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cloud Coach provides better methods and features for project management, for example, the Gantt chart. Not only that but also many other features that I still have to learn more about.
Project Management for Client projects as well as Resource Allocation for projects.
Cloud Coach has provided a single solution to track and manage projects for two primary divisions within our organization. The solution allows us to report project metrics across divisions and uniquely manage project tasks to best fit each team’s needs.
Moving us out of spreadsheets and getting all the data within Salesforce for our projects.
Project planning, Resource Planning and Time management
Better control over the data, linking project tasks to Cases and ensuring everyone has access and visibility to the projects they need to keep track of.
