Project Management For The Win

Today I am going to share with you a great web application I’ve came across called Project Bubble. Being a newbie web design freelancer myself, a lot of times I had problems charging people for my services. How much money do I ask for? Do I charge them according to how much time I’ve spent working on a project or do I charge per banner, per menu, per link, per text page? I always found it hard to set a price tag on my work. Besides the price, I never really took the time to organize my freelancing work professionally, make some fancy invoices that i can send to client and stuff like that. Now that I’m using ProjetBubble, those are all things of the past.

What is the Bubble?

ProjectBubble is a web application that allows you to manage your freelancing projects. Those things include adding clients, projects, tasks, modifying progress, recording the time you spent working on a certain project, shearing your project with other members of your team, designing and sending invoices and getting paid via PayPal. Everything you need as a freelancer packed in a nicely designed user interface with more features coming every once in a while.

Project Bubble is an easy-to-use, simple and free project management tool that is ideal for small businesses and freelancers.

The mastermind behind the Bubble

I would like to thank Mr. Stu Green – the founder and lead developer of ProjectBubble for his very generous act of making this software free for all users. Donations are excepted but it is totally up to the users. If you like try, like and decide to use ProjectBubble, please consider donating even the smallest amount to help in future development (faster servers, security certificates, etc).

Adding a new language

If you happen to know any language that is not already integrated in the Bubble, feel free to contribute to the translation by going to the PB Wiki and writing the translations in the language section. I’m already writing the Croatian translation and I’m really going to be excited to be able to send invoices to companies in my country, in my language.

Suggesting and voting for new features

When you register on ProjectBubble, you are going to be able to spend some voting points and write up some suggestions. Tell the ProjectBubble team what kind of features would you like to see in the future and see other users support your ideas with their votes. This is an absolutely great way of improving a product and I am really looking forward to seeing some of the suggested features implemented.
