How Worklenz Transformed Nanosoft’s Workflow: A First-Hand Experience
For years, at Nanosoft Global, we’ve been dedicated to building cutting-edge fintech solutions for cooperative banking. But as our projects scaled, so did our challenges in managing workflows efficiently. We weren’t just looking for another task management tool; we needed a system that worked for us, not against us. And that’s when Worklenz entered the picture.
As a fast-moving software company, our biggest challenge was balancing productivity with team well-being. We had talented engineers and developers, but our task management tools either lacked critical features or were overly complex, making them a burden rather than a solution. Some tools pressured the team too much, leading to burnout, while others failed to provide the transparency and flexibility we needed.
We tried various task and project management solutions, but nothing felt right for our workflow. Either they were too rigid or lacked key functionalities that we required for managing software development cycles. The lack of a centralized, adaptable system meant that our teams spent more time organizing work instead of executing it.
In the fintech industry, efficiency is everything. A minor delay in software development or miscommunication in task execution could lead to significant losses. We knew we had to find a better way to manage our team, projects, and time or risk falling behind.
I remember when Kalinga first introduced Worklenz to me. It wasn’t just another tool; it was a solution built by a team that understood the very struggles we faced. When I first heard about the beta program, I immediately wanted to be part of it. Two main reasons made it an easy decision:
We needed a better way to keep our team productive without overburdening them. Worklenz promised an intuitive way to assign tasks, track progress, and keep everyone aligned, without unnecessary pressure.
I wanted to support a locally developed product with global potential. Seeing a Sri Lankan-born tech solution making waves in the industry was something I genuinely wanted to be part of.
Our team was among the first to experience Worklenz, and from the very start, we could tell it was different. The onboarding process was simple, and within a few days, we had our entire team using it. Unlike other tools, there was no steep learning curve, Worklenz felt natural and intuitive.
We started small, using Worklenz to manage a single project, tracking tasks, and monitoring team collaboration. The results were immediate and eye-opening.
From the very first beta release, we started integrating Worklenz into our daily operations. The impact was profound and changed the way we worked.
Before Worklenz, we spent hours manually distributing tasks, updating statuses, and tracking project progress. With Worklenz, this process became effortless and automated. Each team member could see their assigned tasks, deadlines, and priorities without constant back-and-forth communication.
Miscommunication was a major pain point before Worklenz. Often, tasks would get lost in email threads, and team members were unaware of each other’s progress. Worklenz provided a single source of truth, allowing every developer, project manager, and executive to stay on the same page.
Worklenz’s progress tracking features ensured that deadlines were met without unnecessary stress on our developers. Instead of pushing the team with unrealistic timelines, Worklenz helped us set realistic expectations while keeping projects on track.
With Worklenz, we had access to real-time analytics and insights. This allowed us to identify bottlenecks, optimize our workflows, and make informed decisions faster. Before, we relied on scattered reports and gut instinct. Now, we have the data to back up our decisions.
One of the most impressive things about Worklenz is how Kalinga’s team listens to user feedback and continuously improves the platform. We’ve provided our own real-world insights, and their team has been exceptional in implementing them.
For instance, in the initial beta phase, we suggested improvements to task dependencies and reporting features. Within weeks, the Worklenz team rolled out updates, making the tool even better suited for our needs.
From a beta tool to an indispensable part of our daily operations, Worklenz has become more than just software, it’s a key pillar in how Nanosoft runs.
As our projects grew, we worried about whether Worklenz would be able to handle the increasing workload. To our surprise, Worklenz scaled seamlessly alongside us.
When we expanded our development team, Worklenz allowed us to onboard new members effortlessly, ensuring they were aligned with ongoing projects.
As we took on more complex fintech projects, Worklenz adapted, allowing us to manage multiple projects without confusion.
We reduced our reliance on unnecessary third-party tools, consolidating our entire workflow within Worklenz.
Worklenz is more than just a task management tool. It has become our productivity partner. It has enabled us to:
🔹 Focus on innovation instead of admin work
🔹 Optimize our development cycles
🔹 Deliver fintech solutions faster and more efficiently
🔹 Ensure our team remains motivated and stress-free
Worklenz isn’t just helping us manage tasks, it’s helping us build a better work culture.
I can confidently say that Worklenz has reshaped the way we manage our software development process. It has allowed us to be more efficient, reduce workload stress, and focus on what we do best delivering fintech solutions.
If you’re looking for a task management tool that truly adapts to your needs, this is it. I highly recommend giving it a try.
