ProSymmetry Named a Gartner "Cool" Vendor in Portfolio Project Management for 2016

BEACHWOOD, Ohio, April 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Gartner, Inc., a leading global independent IT research and advisory company, has released this year's list of "cool" vendors in portfolio project management (PPM). Earning a spot on that short list is ProSymmetry (http://prosymmetry.com/), which offers Tempus Resource software to organizations looking to get more from limited human and physical resources.

According to Gartner's research, and authors Robert A. Handler, Teresa Jones and Matt Light, project resource management will continue to be a major concern for IT organizations of every size. The business environment is constantly evolving, with new challenges emerging seemingly on a daily basis, not the least of them being the rapid digitization of data that powers Big Data analytics. Effective management and visualization of resources is paramount in remaining innovative and competitive on the global stage. Gartner's report further explains that "ProSymmetry provides a resource management solution accessible to the masses ... [and] any vendor that provides a tool or service to enable better resource management is cool."

"A 'cool' vendor listing from Gartner is a tremendous win for our team," says ProSymmetry Vice President of WW Sales Greg Bailey. "We've worked hard to build Tempus Resource into the kind of tool that delivers measurable improvement in organizational efficiency. The software answers the difficult questions that more basic tools cannot. Likewise, we developed Tempus Resource to be tremendously flexible and adaptable. Our goal is to cement ProSymmetry as a leader in this category."

Available as either a SaaS or as an on-premises solution, Tempus Resource addresses an ongoing pain point for project-based organizations – the well-documented shortcomings of traditional PPM tools to solve today's resource management problems. ProSymmetry's software suite enables a degree of speed, granularity and versatility that other tools cannot match and makes the transition from Excel based resource planning systems easy. At the same time, Tempus Resource integrates with existing systems to empower resource management across the entire organization. 

With Tempus Resource, users can manipulate variables and produce reports without affecting live data. Potential labor and cost savings are instantly visible, and can be enacted with a single click. Likewise, the software offers the possibility of seeing opportunities for growth and innovation that might otherwise be missed.

The immediate value of Tempus Resource is its ability to answer all of the nagging "what if" questions that plague project managers. The software suite empowers uses to model and analyze allocation scenarios quickly and accurately. Rather than suffering from "paralysis by analysis," Tempus Resource lets users make decisions confidently and get on with "real" business.

Another tremendous benefit of Tempus Resource lies in its adaptability – organizations large and small can take full advantage of its modeling and analysis tools. Users can import project data from any PPM tool or Excel spreadsheet; alternatively, the software functions perfectly as a standalone solution.

The future continues to look promising for ProSymmetry. With international offices in the UK, Brazil, Mexico and Israel, the company is making its presence known on a global scale. Recognition as a "cool" vendor by none other than Gartner is yet more proof that Tempus Resource has capitalized on a real and pressing need of IT organizations everywhere.
