Microsoft Project is mass management
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Microsoft Project from other similar products?
Many areas of my company use Microsoft Project for project management. In my management, we use it to manage all new projects, but also to test new products that will be distributed to other parts of the company. In managing new projects, we track overall progress, phases and milestones, as well as budgetary and financial progress. When testing new products, we try to maintain predictability by avoiding excessive cost overruns and correcting any problems.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Its documentation is well done and, since it has many users, concerns and questions are easily resolved within the community. However, Microsoft technical support is available. It can be customized for agile project management. Microsoft Project has customizable features and a well-documented API that allows integration with other tools.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Reporting is not enough. It is an old tool that has improved a lot in terms of usability, however, it needs better development to follow agile projects. Advanced features require training.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Microsoft Project has been used around the world for many years. It is the most common and well-known project management software. It has many features, lots of documentation, lots of free training on the Internet. Many users enjoy exchanging information and experiences. It has the functionality to manage any type of project, from academic research to large corporate projects. It can be used for any type of project, but requires refinement to be adopted in an environment where agile project management is employed.
Pros
- Reliable
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy
