What they say about us
Virtual PM is the number one platform to manage your city, county, or agency, but don’t take our word for it.
Keith Jukes

“Virtual Project Manager has been an extremely valuable tool for us, especially while having to work remotely. We are now able to go straight to the jobsite, upload all of our information while there, and manage all projects successfully while working from either the office or home.”
Matt Newton
Public Works, Senior Inspector San Jose CA
“All my daily information is added real time while in the field on my iPad. All I do is drive to the job site, select my project and add all the information into the system. Everything is done before I leave the site, it even loads my photos off my mobile device.”
Nino Abad

“Up and running projects in less than two hours. No additional user fees, training costs or upgrades associated with every other system we have tried. Virtual PM is really looking out for our best interests. They learn by providing user group meetings and then decide what they will design and release next based on our recommendations and at no additional costs.”
