We’ve just uploaded Optsee® 5 public beta for testing.
Optsee® 5 is a complete re-write of Optsee®, and is built on the Bubble Chart Pro™ application platform.
I encourage you to download the new beta version and give it a try. I think you’ll like what you find.
Please let me know about the things you like and don’t like, and any bugs that you find. That is what beta teasing is for, after all.
If you’re a Bubble Chart Pro™ user, then you will find the Optsee® 5 user interface to be very familiar.
Optsee® 5 now brings a whole new level of business analytics to our project portfolio management software products including:
- Integrated Monte Carlo simulation-prioritization that allows you to run your portfolios thousands of times to understand the the best, worst, and most likely potential outcomes
- Three optimizers, including a genetic optimizer for optimizing large project portfolios
- The capability to “force-in” and “force-out” projects in optimizations
- The capability to optimize against multiple dependency constraints
- The capability to save and compare multiple project portfolio optimizations
- You can save multiple sub-sets of projects as “Portfolio Views” so you can display different portfolio ideas in a single click
- Efficient Frontier charts let you instantly compare different Portfolio Views, so your picking the best portfolios, not the best projects
- Baseline tracking lets you “snap” project and portfolio baselines so you can track change over time in Trend Tracker forms
- Alert indicators in the portfolio form let you know if a project has had a major or minor change
- Alert indicators in the project form let you know if a project attribute has had a major or minor change, and the direction of the change
