Situation: You Need a Simple Way to Organize Small Group Activities. 

Sometimes you don't need a full-blown PM software package to track things.  Especially with smaller operational projects and for people who are more in a team lead position.  For those situations, tools exist that are more like a hopped up version of outlook.

For example, Project360 is a very simple online collaboration tool that includes:

Task Management— task assignments to team members, set start and end dates, priority level, and a clear view of task level status. 

Milestones—identify and review key accomplishments related to individual tasks.

Calendar— a schedule at a glance, highlighting overdue tasks, etc.

File Sharing
—a shared team repository.

Time Tracking
—Simple time tracking. (probably redundant to your ordinary timekeeping system)

Gantt Chart—The Gantt Chart gives you a visual representation of your project timeline.  (just at the task level) 

Project Templates—This time-saving feature allows you to create projects based on already existing projects. (for projects you engage in repeatedly)
 
General Project Calendar—This feature allows you to see all of your projects in a single calendar.
