Pelotonics represents an online service that is used to securely manage communications, organize files, and assign and track tasks. There is no excessive functionality you don’t need, so you can deal with only those things that are truly important. In addition to that it has really simple and easy-to-use interface, still it doesn’t mean that there aren’t any drawbacks. Of course, there are some, but we will talk about them a little bit later. For now let’s check the screenshots.

Here is the screenshot of Dashboard:

This page being divided into three sections (what’s coming up, what’s late and what’s new) provides all the information in an easy and understandable way.

Next screenshot displays Tasks Page:

Probably the only thing missing here is the opportunity to add and, as a consequence, to check the description of a task. In other respects there are many useful features: task priority, opportunity to add comments and check the current amount of comments, task time tracking, task filtering and etc.

And Messages Page:

Of course, it looks pretty ordinary, but at the same time allows editing and deleting comments, and has rich text formatting options.

Main characteristic features:

  • Opportunity to schedule free 30 minutes phone consultation
  • Six different packages, including a free one
  • SSL 128bit encryption
  • Very intuitive and easy-to-use interface
  • Great list of current customers and etc.

Pros and cons:

+ pretty intuitive interface
+ commenting on tasks
+ rich text formatting
+ customizable Calendar panel
+ separate panel for communication
+ separate panel for files
+ task priority
+ opportunity to create task lists

- no subtasks
- no description for tasks (just for projects; still you can describe the task in the first comment)
- no detailed reports
- no way to comment on projects
