Celoxis provides you with the capability to view the accurate load of your resources, their actual utilization, capacity and efficiency which enables data driven planning and decision making across the project lifecycle. This helps the project manager for better resource planning and management. Using these reports, the manager can move resources across projects or add more free resources on tasks to complete the schedule as expected and thereby get a good hold on resource management.
