Podio
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 314: malformed pattern (missing ']'). Podio is a cloud-based collaboration service that was founded in 2009 and acquired by Citrix in 2012.
Podio supplies a web-based platform for organizing team communication, business processes, data and content in project management workspaces. Users can also select business "apps" from an online app store or build their own according to project needs.[1]
History
Podio was founded by Jon Froda, Anders Pollas and Andreas Haugstrup Pedersen in early 2009. Quickly joined by Thomas Madsen-Mygdal as chairman. Then called Hoist, Podio signed up its first customers in August 2009 and was joined by Kasper Hulthin as co-founder.
In August 2010, Danish entrepreneur Tommy Ahlers, best known for the mobile social site ZYB, joined as CEO and angel investor.[2]
Podio officially launched in March 2011. As part of the launch, Podio briefly opened a storefront in San Francisco where people could walk in for help with building apps.[3]
In September, 2011, Podio launched mobile apps for iPhone and Android.[4]
In April 2012, Citrix acquired Podio.[5]
In June 2015, Podio added two additional plans: Podio Plus (Advanced project processes and workflows) and Podio Premium (Priority support) to offer them to its expanded customer base.[6]
Features
A Podio account is a template for objects with a given number of customizable fields. Field types include text (single- and multi-line), number, category (enumeration of fixed values), date, duration, progress percentage, monetary value, image, link, map location, contact and relationship with other objects. Any object can also store file attachments, tags, votes, a rating, and tasks associated with the object. Once objects are added to the app's collection via data entry or import from an Excel spreadsheet, they can be displayed in several layouts: card, badge and table. Filtering and basic calculations are available.
Use cases
A Podio app for tracking expenses and reimbursements might have the following fields: name, date, details, cost, image (photo of the receipt), status ("submitted", "under review", "approved", "rejected"). When a new object of this type is created, a task can automatically be dispatched to user in the system to review the expense and approve or reject it.
