Many small creative studios often lack a business-minded framework that helps keep their operations moving along as smoothly as they want it to; enter the Team App. The Team App acts as a digital project manager that keeps on top of finances, time sheets and analytics in order to keep day-to-day operations running smoothly.
Developed by designer Jerome Iveson of design studio Thrive, the Team App essentially combines "the functions of separate apps like project manager Basecamp, accounting service Freshbooks, time-tracker Toggl, and the data-cruncher Google Analytics into one intuitive and attractive interface," writes Fast Co Design.
Although incredibly practical, the Team App also wins in the aesthetics department. Design firms will happily use its organizational system purely based on its design.
