AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Upland Software, Inc., a leader in cloud-based Enterprise Work Management applications, today announced that Palmetto Security Group (PSG), a firm specializing in helping companies understand how business processes and security requirements can work together to deliver improved efficiencies while strengthening security, has selected Upland's Tenrox professional services automation application. Palmetto Security Group will rely on Tenrox for its ability to accurately track resource utilization, including time tracking and forecasting.

"We selected Tenrox to solve the issues we had tracking resource utilization, both from a time input standpoint and a forecasting standpoint," said Ken Anderson, chief operating officer at Palmetto Security Group. "Unlike other applications we considered, Tenrox had all the facets we were looking for, including easy time entry, task-based hour input, utilization planning, project planning, robust reporting and integration with our accounting software."

Additional reasons for Palmetto Security Group selecting Tenrox include:


    --  Moving to a best-of-breed professional services automation application
        from the Palmetto home grown application, which was taking away billable
        resources for development and maintenance
    --  Eliminating late invoicing, and improving cash flow and integration to
        QuickBooks Online
    --  Reducing the time it was taking managers to get basic project
        information, and the internal confusion as to what resources are
        available and when
    --  Adopting a solution that was easy to use with automatic project updates,
        time entry constraints, forecasting tools, a standard dashboard for
        management, and implementation utilization planning capabilities

"We are excited to have been selected by Palmetto Security Group to help improve the automation of their service delivery," said Kevin Sequeira, Upland Software's general manager and director of product management for the Tenrox line of business. "PSG provides critical cyber security consulting to companies, and Tenrox will enable a more efficient and streamlined process to better support their customers."
