InfoStreet Offers Smart Tasks for Small Business
Smart Tasks Version
4 offers streamlined office productivity without the
high price tag of standalone workflow offerings
TARZANA, Calif. (June 17, 2008) - InfoStreet
Inc. (http://www.infostreet.com),
creator of the popular Web-based IT and Productivity
software suite, StreetSmart, today announced Version
4 of its Tasks management software, Smart Tasks. The
newly enhanced business workflow application delivers
small businesses significant productivity increases
through easier yet more effective management of day-to-day
employee activities.
This major rollout reflects a larger move by InfoStreet
to aggressively provide "Big Business Software
and Services" to the small business sector at prices
they are comfortable with.
"We're obsessed with efficiency because we truly
understand that our small business clients want and
need to maximize productivity in every way possible,"
explains Julie Ann Burns, director of marketing at InfoStreet.
"Across all industries, resources are tight and
competition is fierce; so services that provide real
operational advantages, in a cost effective manner,
are beyond critical.
Smart Tasks offers our clients a new and powerful
approach to monitoring, maintaining and controlling
the activity pipeline as well as improving communication
and accountability."
With Smart Tasks, critical activity is captured and
prioritized, making important lost or forgotten tasks
a thing of the past. All tasks are kept online for secure
anytime, anywhere access. In addition, the powerful
historical record of each task which can contain the
input of multiple team members enables quick orientation
and provides a reminder of the reasoning and desired
results of each activity.
Key Features of StreetSmart's Smart
Tasks Application:
Simple Task Creation
Easily create tasks for yourself or for other people
to help keep track of important to-do's.
Task Fluidity
StreetSmart tasks are fluid and easily move between
people to mimic natural workflow. For example, if someone
creates a task for you, but hasn't provided you with
enough information you simply return the task to them
and request clarification. Once they provide you with
the necessary info they can again return the task to
you.
Transparency - Keep People Who Need to Know In
the Know Let managers and coworkers watch over
the progression of important tasks regardless of whether
they are actually responsible for performing that task.
They can either view the task directly or receive convenient
notifications as progress occurs.
Stay in Sync You can sync your StreetSmart
Tasks with Outlook, Palm, Pocket PC and Blackberry for
quick and easy task management.
Integration with CRM When necessary associate
your tasks with a particular contact.
Determine Urgency Set priorities like Critical,
High, Medium, or Low to help direct the immediacy
with which tasks must be accomplished.
Customizable Categories and Types Define Categories
and Types (Sales - Prospective Customers) which
you can then associate with your tasks to help specify
the nature of the activity and use for tracking purposes
Due Dates and Reminders Give your tasks
due dates and send reminders. The due dates will even
appear on your StreetSmart Calendar.
Recurring Tasks Whenever an activity happens
on a regular basis (e.g., quarterly budget report is
due) let StreetSmart automatically handle task creation.
Historical Record Have a completely
archived history of your task. Anytime you or somebody
else modifies a given task that information is captured
providing you with a detailed record of information
that can be accessed at any time.
No More Lost Email Requests Attach important
files to your tasks.
Task Reporting Task reporting on status,
priority, category and type (e.g. show me the tasks
which have not been started and are critical in nature)
Color Coding Color coding of priorities,
types and categories makes for easier visual identification.
(e.g., critical tasks appear in red)
Online or Print Your StreetSmart Tasks
are always available with only an Internet connection
and a web browser. However you may occasionally want
to print your tasks for a more traditional view.
Find it Powerful filters and search mechanisms
make it easy to locate tasks for review.
