Petrosoft

Petrosoft’s leader is a chain retail operator and engineer who initially developed his own cloud-based back-office software solution back in 2002. 

Today, Petrosoft is a SaaS company that designs,  creates and markets an end-to-end C-store technology, enabling a seamless connection between vendors, point-of-sale, food service, back-office, network, analytics and financial systems. The company supports its products from its headquarters in Pittsburgh, PA and partners with the top global companies including SAP, IBM, Intel, Brother, Tableau, NCR, and Verifone.

Webvizio was lucky to be picked as the platform of choice for Petrosoft management when it comes to team communication and collaboration on projects, and Melanie Widmann, the marketing director shared with us some of her experience with it so far.

Why Petrosoft Needed Webvizio?

Besides the headquarters, most Petrosoft employees work remotely from all around the world. The company has a small but mighty marketing department where the time means a lot for productivity. 

The digital marketing department is managed from Pittsburgh, but most of the team works remotely – front and back end developers, content writers & manager, designers.  

In addition, the company has multiple web properties (corporate website, product pages, campaign landing pages, self-serve customer portals) that have to be managed and updated on a regular basis.

“It was just a mess with all those different messengers, separate folders, and the never ending back-and-forth trying to understand what exactly everyone means!”

How Webvizio Helped?

Before Webvizio Pertosoft’s team had to use a vast stack of tools and communications channels to enable  the team to collaborate sufficiently. They used a separate screenshots tool, mobile preview tools, 3-d party planners, emails, corporate messengers, and quite a lot of conference calls.

Webvizio came in very helpful as a singe centralized way to store all project-related correspondence, track progress, manage tasks and deadlines, and leave visual feedback on the actual live websites. Plus provided a neat dashboard to manage those separate web properties and their responsible teams separately in a well-organized way .

What Has Changed Using Webvizio For Project Management And Bug Tracking Compared To The Old Way?

After Webvizio, the entire process became so much easier — the entire team stays on the same page, everybody knows which  website and particular page they need to work on, in what order,  which element has to be changed, and what exactly needs to be  done.

Since starting using Webvizio, Petrosoft teams have saved an enormous amount of time and helped them to reach higher productivity standards.

“We are finally aligned, can see all the changes on the actual web page, pin the feedback, so that a responsible person gets notified on a particular element that needs attention! It makes our landing pages creation process so much easier and quicker!”
