Flatsourcing Launches Outsourcing Dashboard At Techcrunch 50

Oct. 10, 2008 - PRLog -- San Francisco, CA – September 8, 2008 – Flatsourcing.com launches its new Outsourcing Dashboard product today at the TechCrunch 50 conference in the DemoPit. The Dashboard provides “outsourcing insight” by centralizing all of the tools, communication and team in a customized dashboard at Flatsourcing.com. Flatsourcing is a leading Ruby on Rails development firm specializing in retainer-based development contracts.

Global collaboration is getting easier every day with the rise of new project management tools like Basecamp, communication tools like Skype and videoconferencing software.  Keeping track of the tools used by your team and the daily updates in each tool can be confusing and time consuming. The Flatsourcing Dashboard solves this by serving as a central location for the tools and communication flow between an outsourced web development team and its client.

“We’ve been working virtually with a team in Russia for more than eight years,” said Mr. Schultz, “and we’ve tried a lot of different tools to manage our projects. All the web-based tools are great, but until now there has never been a central location where I could view all my communication with my team, not matter what tool we were using. The Flatsourcing Dashboard is designed to solve one of the biggest headaches of outsourcing: keeping up with your team.”

The Flatsourcing Dashboard can be configured to work with any web-based project management tool. This eliminates the need for Flatsourcing’s Ruby on Rails programming clients to learn a proprietary tool. Flatsourcing adapts to its clients’ communication protocols, rather than requiring the reverse.

The Flatsourcing Dashboard will be available immediately to all Flatsourcing clients, and the company plans to continue to roll our new innovations to enhance communication with clients.
