PSOhub’s Cool New Features: Fall Project Management Updates

Written by Julie Bennett | October 17, 2025

This fall season has marked a period of intentional growth and innovation here at PSOhub. We are thrilled to share that thanks to the incredible input and trust from our user community, we’ve achieved milestones across three areas: earning prestigious new industry awards, introducing a suite of powerful new features, and creating a vibrant new digital space for our users to connect, collaborate, and share knowledge.

We believe that smarter project management is rooted in technology that eliminates administrative drag and empowers teams to focus on billable work. 

The updates we are unveiling below are designed to provide PSOhub users deeper control, and unparalleled visibility into the heart of their projects and their organization at large. 

We're officially award-winning (again!)

Our journey toward becoming the leading solution for Professional Services Automation is fueled by the continuous feedback and shared by our growing community of users around the world (in 40+ countries to be exact). 

Thanks to this wellspring of inspiration for improvement, PSOhub is being honored and recognized in the recent G2 Fall Awards. The G2 Awards are based directly on verified user reviews and satisfaction scores, meaning this is an award won by you, the community. 

This recognition is a badge of honor for our development team and a welcome validation of our commitment to our users. We are incredibly proud of this achievement, and even more thankful that your trust and transparent feedback continue to shape our roadmap and drive us to improve every single day. 

What's new: Smarter project control

We have focused our latest development cycle on the intersection of project planning, resource optimization, and financial transparency. These new features are designed to make project management smarter, more connected, and undeniably easier for every team member, from the project manager to the consultant and the finance officer.

The Advanced Gantt chart that tracks reality against the plan

The Gantt chart has always been the visual heartbeat of a project, but our new Advanced Gantt Chart transforms it into a dynamic command center for project managers. 

Baselines aka your single source of truth 

For professional services, scope creep is the single greatest threat to profitability. And the introduction of Baseline is the most powerful weapon against it. A Baseline allows you to take a permanent snapshot of your project schedule and budget at the time of contract signing.

As you make changes to tasks, timelines, or resources throughout the project lifecycle, the Baseline remains untouched. This gives you the ability to overlay the current reality against the original promise. 

You can instantly visualize where the project has drifted, providing objective data for internal reviews and client negotiations regarding change orders. This moves project management from reactive adjustments to proactive, data-driven control.

Enhanced visual cues for real-time management

To make the chart even more intuitive, we’ve introduced powerful visual aids:

  • The "Now" Line: A clear, moving vertical line that shows you exactly where you stand today against the planned schedule. This simple feature immediately highlights tasks that should have started or finished but haven't, giving you zero-delay alerts.
  • Task Gap Views: Visualize dependencies and gaps between sequential tasks, ensuring smooth transitions and helping project managers optimize buffer time.
  • Checklist Views: Quickly review and manage sub-tasks directly within the Gantt environment, streamlining oversight of complex deliverables.

Smarter notifications & proactive budget control

The old way of managing project budgets meant waiting around for the monthly financial report, by which time it was often too late to prevent overruns. Our new smarter notifications make the PSOhub platform a truly proactive management system.

Project managers will now receive automated alerts when used hours exceed the planned effort on specific tasks. This happens in real-time, or close to it:

  • Early Warning System - For example, if a developer on a 10-hour task logs their 11th hour, the manager is instantly notified. 
  • Immediate Action - This allows the project manager to investigate immediately: Is the effort estimate wrong? Is the team member struggling? Is this scope creep? By catching small variances before they compound, teams can stay in control, make quick adjustments, and dramatically improve project profit margins. This feature is fundamental to protecting profitability in time and materials and fixed-price projects alike.

Optimizing human teams with better resource management

Project success hinges on the efficient and sustainable deployment of talent. The new features in resource management improve visibility for both managers and individual contributors, fostering a positive culture of transparency.

My Resource Planning

Resource planning is often seen as a management chore, but with My Resource Planning, we are decentralizing control and empowering the individual. Every team member now has a clear, personalized view of their own schedule, capacity, and upcoming bookings.

Benefits for teams

  • Team members can easily visualize their weekly or monthly bandwidth. This allows them to effectively plan time off, manage administrative overhead, and communicate their availability proactively, reducing the feeling of being over-scheduled or overloaded.
  • When employees feel their workload is balanced and transparently managed, job satisfaction and productivity naturally increase. This is a powerful tool for preventing employee burnout, a hidden cost that plagues many PSOs. 

Benefits for the manager

  • Managers gain an accurate, up-to-the-minute view of team capacity, making it easier to plan time, balance workloads, and assign new tasks effectively without risking over-allocation.
  • By having a clear picture of individual availability, managers can maximize the team’s billable utilization rates, directly impacting the firm’s bottom line. PSOhub assigns the right skill set to the right project at the right time, every time.

Seamless financial integration

Data silos between project management and accounting systems create lag, errors, and delayed invoicing. Our new integrations eliminate these friction points with a reliable sync between project data and core financials.

SAP Business One integration

For many enterprise-level Professional Services Organizations, SAP Business One is the backbone of their financial operations. The new, robust connection between PSOhub and SAP Business One enables detailed, granular project data (time logs, expenses, fixed fees, milestones) to flow reliably into SAP’s general ledger.

The integration can help maintain a single source of truth by removing the need for manual data export and import. It drastically reduces human error and checks that project profitability metrics calculated in PSOhub align perfectly with the formal financial records in SAP. This provides the high level of auditing and regulatory confidence required by large firms.

Enhanced Exact Online integration

We understand that invoicing can often be the most time-consuming and error-prone part of the cash cycle. Our Enhanced Exact Online Integration focuses on streamlining the flow from project completion to payment with:

  • Automated Invoice Creation - Invoices created in PSOhub based on approved time and expenses can now be seamlessly sent directly to Exact Online. 
  • Transparent Client Documentation - PSOhub automatically processes detailed specification pages for all T&M hours and incurred expenses. These transparent documents are generated as PDFs and automatically attached to the emailed invoice sent to your customers. This eliminates client disputes, speeds up approval times, and provides unparalleled transparency.

The new PSOhub community: A space to connect

Technology is nothing without the people who use it. Recognizing the growing need for peer-to-peer knowledge sharing, we have just launched the PSOhub Reddit community.

This new space is designed for teams, power users, and anyone passionate about discovering smarter ways to manage projects. It’s an open forum where you can:

  • Share innovative ways you're using PSOhub’s Gantt charts, AI Copilot, and other helpful features.
  • Ask questions about best practices or specific integration nuances to customize your workflows.
  • Provide direct feedback and ideas that can influence future updates.

This community is a valuable source of real-world insights, and we encourage you to join the conversation, learn from your peers, and contribute to the collective knowledge of project management excellence.
