“Data is the backbone of decision-making.” In project management, that couldn’t be more true. At Orangescrum, we’ve always believed reporting should give you clarity, not complexity. While our existing reports already help teams track progress, performance, and productivity, we know you’ve been asking for more depth, more KPIs, and more visibility. And we’ve been listening. After a wave of demand
Did you know that 45% of project managers spend more time on repetitive administrative tasks than on actual strategy? In today’s fast-paced business environment, inefficiencies in workflows can stall progress and frustrate teams. That’s where Project Collaboration Software equipped with Robotic Process Automation (RPA) comes in. By automating repetitive, rule-based tasks, businesses can free up te
“Hey Google, update my project status.” Sounds futuristic? Not anymore. Voice-activated technology is becoming the next big shift in how we work. From Alexa to Siri, voice assistants already simplify daily tasks. Now, the same innovation is transforming project management software. Why does this matter? Because teams lose hours typing updates, digging through dashboards, and switching between tool
Is AI really the new project manager? Or is it just another buzzword making waves? Businesses across industries are adopting AI-driven project management software to automate tasks, track time, and optimize workflows. Yet, skepticism remains. Can AI truly replace human managers, or is it only a supporting tool? In this blog, we’ll cut through the hype and explore what AI in project management soft
In project management, communication is the glue that holds teams, tasks, and timelines together. Yet in today’s fast-paced, remote-first work culture, expecting instant replies and constant meetings is not always practical. That’s where the communication gap becomes visible. A communication gap doesn’t always mean poor teamwork. Sometimes, it’s simply the result of different time zones, work styl
Did you know that poor communication costs businesses an estimated $37 billion annually worldwide? Remote work has amplified this challenge. With teams scattered across different locations and time zones, the ability to collaborate effectively can make or break a project’s success. That’s why using Project Collaboration Software is no longer optional — it’s essential. In this blog, we’ll explore t
Did you know that only 21% of organizations have standardized methods for measuring team productivity in their projects? That means most teams are making critical decisions based on gut feelings rather than data. In today’s competitive market, relying on guesswork is a recipe for missed deadlines, bloated budgets, and frustrated teams. This is where Project Management Software changes the game. Wi
Every business decision leaves a footprint, but without proper tracking, those footprints dissolve. In fact, 75% of project failures stem from poor accountability and unclear decision trails. That’s why audit trails in project governance matter more than ever. In fast‑moving teams using digital tools, clarity isn’t optional – it’s essential. In this blog, you’ll discover why audit trails are
Remote work isn’t a trend — it’s a shift. A recent report by Owl Labs shows that 62% of employees aged 22 to 65 work remotely at least occasionally. With this shift comes the need for virtual project management to coordinate teams, tools, timelines, and tasks without borders. But here’s the catch: virtual doesn’t mean frictionless. Teams face time zone gaps, miscommunication, and scattered tools.
Project budgeting is more than just crunching numbers — it’s the lifeblood of every successful project. Yet according to PMI, nearly 1 in 3 projects exceed their original budgets due to poor estimation, lack of tracking, or inadequate adjustments. In a world where every dollar counts, poorly managed budgets can lead to overrun timelines, unhappy clients, and reduced profit margins. That’s wh
Do you feel like your project updates are more reactive than strategic? You’re not alone. In today’s fast-moving work environment, project managers must do more than just keep things moving — they need to steer the ship with clarity and data. Tracking key performance indicators (KPIs) is what separates high-performing project teams from the rest. However, many PMs still rely on outdated spre
Across industries, low‑code tools are no longer niche — they’re mission‑critical. In fact, businesses that adopt low‑code platforms accelerate application delivery by 76% and cut development costs in half. That matters today because project teams juggle complex tasks, shifting priorities, and remote collaboration. In this post, you’ll discover how low‑code tools reshape workflows, empower every st
In project-based businesses, time is money — literally. Yet, many companies still struggle to track where their teams spend time and how that translates to billable hours. Without accurate time tracking software, you risk undercharging clients, overworking your teams, and silently draining revenue through inefficiencies. In fact, a recent survey shows that 40% of service firms lose billable hours
Project managers used to rely on gut feeling and historical data. Today, prescriptive project management changes everything. Powered by AI, this emerging approach doesn’t just track progress or flag risks — it recommends what to do next. According to Gartner, nearly 70% of project management tasks will be automated by AI by 2030. For small and mid-sized businesses, that means it’s no longer
