What is a Snapshot, why does it matter?

A snapshot is a saved version of your project or program reports at a specific point in time. A snapshot saves everything in Mastt, including all dashboards, cost trackers, risk registers, schedule data and more. This feature allows you to capture the current state of your project, store it securely, and use it for various purposes, such as running scenarios, comparing reports, and maintaining detailed records throughout the project lifecycle.

Create snapshots to use as reporting branches, and to store data for comparing back to, later.

Challenges with Data Overtime

Common challenges we see:

Manual Record-Keeping: Maintaining manual records of project data and reports is time-consuming and prone to errors.

Data Consistency: Ensuring that report data remains consistent and unchanged over time can be challenging.

No Standardization: Project data in different formats and varying quality lacks standardization, making it difficult to use for data insights, machine learning, or AI.

Compliance: Meeting compliance requirements often requires detailed historical records, which can be difficult to manage manually.

What's Changed?: Comparing data between two reports, dashboards or data sets is nearly impossible with traditional formats.

Trend Analysis: Without standardized, consistent data stored over time, trend analysis is not possible.
