What do you like best about Mission Control?

Reporting of the PRojects, SPI, CPI, hours completed linked with the time logs of the resources is accurate and factual time information. I love the Billing feature, so many things you can do to keep your project up to date from all angles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mission Control?

I haven't found a way to create a Change Request that affects Quality and Time in the project; all Change Request management is related to Cost but not to Scope or Time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mission Control:

This Tools is super Complete but precisely there is so much you can do but you have to really go deep and there is no help that uses all the levels of complexity to get the best from it, videos available are too basic, so in order to get the best from MC you have to do your own research Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mission Control solving and how is that benefiting you?

Project Management all in one tool. I don-t need to use any other tool to do my PM activities, is ALL there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mission Control?

Love the way we can organise a project and monitor it as time goes by. However, the real killer feature is the time logging. At every step of the way we know how long we have spent with each client, doing what. This allows us to submit detailed reports to our clients, which helps build a trusting relationship with them. It is also so intuitive that we do not lose billable hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mission Control?

There is not much to put in here! When we have found minor niggles, Colin and the team have listened to our needs and put in place changes. It really is a good product under a cycle of continuous improvement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mission Control:

If you have a project planning need, and you use Salesforce, then this should be at the top of your list of products to consider. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mission Control solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cutting down projects into manageable chunks.

Allocating those projects to different members of the team.

Monitoring the time used by each part of the project... which helps us produce more accurate estimates on future proposals.

Tracking how much time each team member has contributed to each part of the project.

We also automatically trigger creation of new actions when a client submits a case, so that we can accurately track how much time the resolution took. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mission Control?

Mission control is easy to use and gives you great tools to manage your projects efficiently. They are receptive to feedback which allows for an ever improving product. Looking forward to continue growing with them! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mission Control?

The whiteboard is limited to how many actions can be displayed and if you hit the limit its based created date. It shows the oldest created action no matter the status.

You can get around this by bring more particular about your filter criteria. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mission Control:

Don't feel limited to what's provided. Every business is different so customize and automate to help your team where needed! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mission Control solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mission control is great for running our engagements and keeping it easier for the PM team to keep us all on task. It can be very useful for engagements that rely on case management that requires time tracking and providing metrics for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mission Control?

The Gantt chart feature is fantastic. You can assign as many action points, milestones, and checklists which would be a logical breakdown of your entire project cycle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mission Control?

There is nothing as such to dislike. But the calendar function can be made more dynamic by integrating it on the spot with scheduling zoom calls or google meets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mission Control:

It would help if you approached the MC team with your business flow of core functions to ensure you get a heads-up for your needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mission Control solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cost, Process, and timeline benefits, you name it! It's an endless story of benefits from kanban to the whiteboard for resource management. From invoicing to dashboard reports on performance, percentage completion, so on and so forth, the list of benefits is simply endless. The chatterbox helps keep the entire discussion thread on a particular topic within the team members. The meeting manager helps connect and assign action points for the project tasks. Simple amazing!

What do you like best about Mission Control?

Powerful, flexible, full-featured app with great support. As it's built on Salesforce, you can use a mix of out of the box features and extend/customize however you want on the Salesforce platform.

Will get you from estimating to scheduling to progress reports to billing and everything in between. Robust functionality and the flexibility to use the app in different ways depending on the project style/your needs.

Constantly improving with regular upgrades. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mission Control?

Has a bit of a learning curve, particularly in figuring out the right objects/tables to use for what size chunks of work. The flexibility is great but the downside is lots of different places to track pieces of work. Took some time to strike the right balance.

The benefits of building on Salesforce also have some downsides; mostly related to data security & sharing when exposing specific projects to external contractor and/or client users. More of a tradeoff than a drawback & could be solved with custom code/automation, just something to be aware of.

I would also like to see more LWC and less Visualforce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mission Control solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Mission Control to estimate, schedule, manage, and bill for all of our project work. It helps us stay organized and properly estimate the volume and velocity of work we have coming down the pipeline, as well as reflect back on the work we've done and see how it stacked up to our estimates.

We use it to track current and historical issues, share updates with clients, and track contractor as well as staff tasks/time.

The billing features are great as well; we found it pretty straightforward to set up an integration with our accounting tool to create invoices based on work tracked in SF. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mission Control?

Mission Control has greatly assisted CCAS ONLINE in delivering the best possible service to our Clients. The ease of setup, the UI, and all the other features are both logical and relevant. We are far more efficient in delivering our service because of Mission Control, the ability to add the Custom Components such as the Timelogger to various Page Layouts in Salesforce is a great benefit. The timely, intuitive Version Upgrades never fail to impress us even more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mission Control?

There is nothing I don't like about this App and would therefore highly recommend it. Well done Aprika! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mission Control solving and how is that benefiting you?

The problems we are solving with Mission Control are immense. Before Mission Control, we were using multiple software and platforms to achieve what Mission Control does right out of the box. We now have the ability to create Project Templates to be used time after time with repetitive Client work. We are now working well within our Project Budgets, as it is so easy to log time against all Client work, allowing us to review our pricing on a lesser timescale than before. Collaboration and sharing within our organisation is far easier with Mission Control, nothing slips the net, everyone is on the one page so to speak. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mission Control?

Mission Control provides great tier-one dispatch services and helps to augment our teams' ability to prioritize inbound help desk calls. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mission Control?

Dispatchers don't always follow a script, and tend to skirt calls if information or a ticket can not be founds quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mission Control solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mission Control has greatly improved our help desk team's ability to prioritize inbound support calls, as well as assist with overflow during busy times. Mission Control also provides great tier-one support and dispatch service for after-hours calls. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
