Your questions about AirSaas

If you are looking for project management software that lets you drill into the granular tasks of each of your projects, AirSaas is not for you.

AirSaas goes beyond traditional project management tools, to help you run a fairly broad project portfolio. The platform lets you:

  • Bring every piece of project information together on a single UX-first platform
  • Save time on your project reviews and reporting
  • Make decision-making easier for your executive committee, with flash reports that put the key project information first
  • Make your project culture consistent, by giving your project managers a standard framework
  • See the dependencies between your cross-functional projects, so you can steer them by priority

You do not need to run project management software alongside AirSaas to get its benefits. You will get the most out of it if you have a fairly large project portfolio to run, and you lose time hunting for the related data in other tools (your emails or your chat threads, for instance).

No, AirSaas does not have features to forecast your budgets or analyse scenarios the way Planview Portfolio does. But thanks to the macro view AirSaas gives you over your projects, you can easily see their interdependencies and their needs in real time. So you have no need to forecast: you have a clear picture at any moment.

No. The purpose of AirSaas is to give the CIO or the PMO a simplified macro view of the project portfolio, and to save them time. As for tracking time, schedules and granular tasks, each project manager assigned to your projects can handle that in a separate tool.

AirSaas pricing is designed for larger small businesses and mid-market companies — and we know how tight those budgets can be. That is why we built pricing that is genuinely ROI-driven. You need at least 15 people on the platform to get access. That said, you can start by rolling AirSaas out to a handful of project managers and then, once your proof of concept is done, open it up to more users.
