A project has many elements — time, money, people, and scope. On the top of it, you have deadlines, budgets, and risks to take care of. Even if one of them falters, the project is meant to be doomed. Maybe that’s why only 2.5% of companies successfully complete their projects.

Having a project management system could dramatically reduce your chances to fail at project planning as it helps you define a structured workflow, better planning, and effective management of resources. And, that’s exactly when ProofHub comes into the picture. It helps you simplify project management by putting all the pieces of your project’s puzzle at their right place.

To all those new to ProofHub, here is a little recap of what ProofHub is, how did it all begin and how it continues to simplify project management even today.

How ProofHub came into being?

ProofHub was launched in 2011 as a solution to provide simple but effective project management. We realized that people are using multiple tools to handle different facets of project management. So, we put up all the features of project management and online collaboration, bundled them in one and came up with ProofHub.

We are proud of the fact that ProofHub has managed to carve a niche for itself in such a short span of time. And, popular names like that of NASA, Taco Bell, Disney, Netflix and other 83000+ small groups are using ProofHub to end their project management woes.

Once the changes are made, you can approve files with a click of a button that saves everyone a lot of time and effort.
