AUSTIN, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Upland Software, Inc. (Nasdaq: UPLD), a leader in cloud-based enterprise
work management software, today announced an innovative integration
between Upland PowerSteering, its flagship Project and Portfolio
Management (PPM) solution within its Project and Financial Management
solution suite, and Microsoft
Teams, the unified communications platform used by more than 500,000
organizations.
Project success and goals are often highly dependent upon communication,
especially when such efforts involve global project teams. Leveraging
Microsoft Teams and Upland’s innovative integration, project team
members can now collaborate, communicate, share documents, and schedule
meetings directly from within their PPM solution, through a
collaboration platform that is used by used by 91 of the Fortune 100
companies.
According to The Project Management Institute, $75 million out of every
$1 billion spent on projects is at risk due to ineffective
communications, which also is the cause of one out of five project
failures. The integration of Upland PowerSteering with Microsoft Teams
helps reduce the risk of ineffective project communications and empowers
business productivity.
“This integration with Microsoft Teams aligns with Upland Software’s
continued commitment to deliver best-of-breed solutions and
customer-driven innovation,” said Mounir Hilal, chief customer officer
and executive vice president for project & IT management solutions at
Upland Software. “Our customers are increasingly challenged with
managing complex projects across the enterprise. Now, project teams can
collaborate in real time to improve productivity and help ensure project
success.”
“I was excited to see the integration of Upland’s PowerSteering with
Microsoft Teams,” said Gautam Khattak, chief information officer at
Artesyn Embedded Technologies. “The interface looked seamless, and I
think having this integrated collaboration platform will make
PowerSteering an even more encompassing solution.”
