Likelihood to Recommend We are a pretty unique business because we deal with bookkeeping, marketing, and HR and across all 3 departments, we have been able to successfully use the tool. Other software we have tried usually caters to one industry at a time.
Read full review Each member of our team can choose their own view, so they can see only what is relevant to them. Plus, we can keep track of everyone's progress without bothering them. Our team loves that everyone can have a different view, so they see only what's important to them. In addition, we can keep tabs on everyone's progress without pestering them. The user interface has some nice quality of life features, such as the different views for different members of our team.
Read full review Pros It switches between Kanban view, List view, and Gantt charts which fits varying preferences! It helps us work smart by creating dependencies and linking tasks to calendars It has a clean, intuitive dashboard that's very easy to navigate Read full review Easy Projects has a really nice UI. It's really easy [to] work there and make our projects easy to follow. Great support. A few times I had to talk with support about API connections and they answered me quickly and kindly. It's stable. I cannot remember a day when Easy Projects' platform [was] down, so it's really STABLE. Charts and reports are very easy to use Read full review Cons The interface and taxonomy could use an update, sometimes it's hard to figure out where things logically are or should be. Read full review Easy Projects has some problems when it comes to accessing the site via different methods/browsers. It is either very slow or never works on a tablet. It is not smart-phone friendly. And it stopped working for us in Firefox -- all we could use is Safari or Chrome (we are a Mac-based office). Easy Projects' email notifications are overwhelming. I turned them off completely since I was getting messages every time one little detail was added or changed. While the reports are great, they are somewhat hard to pull. It takes a lot of trial and error -- I would not say the reports are an "intuitive area." The biggest by far is what we fondly call "the screen of death." When you mark the last open task associated with a job as complete, a screen pops up that asks if you want to close the overall job, as well. The "yes" field is pre-selected, so if you are overzealous and click through quickly, it automatically closes the job. I don't know why they think this feature is helpful. We have so many staffers that complain they suddenly can't find their open job -- well, it's been marked completed and goes into the archive.

Read full review EP is great but could be better. EP has been a wonderful tool within our organization, it has helped us control expenses, resources, and the time needed to invest in each project, however when it comes to presenting reports and details it is a bit weak, there are more tools specialized in data visualization, and it would be good to make some kind of integration between EP and the other market alternatives
Read full review Usability Avaza is very easy to use, but the mobile app needs work.

Read full review Support Rating They are always available and open to doing a call or a shared screen to walk through the issues.
Read full review In my personal experience, I only needed EP support once and the truth is that they attended me very well and very quickly, they helped me with what I needed, it was a question regarding the use of WebServices, they solved my doubt and then they contacted me another agent to verify that everything was resolved and if they could help me with anything else
Read full review Implementation Rating I am really satisfied with the implementation of EP in our organization, since it is a very useful tool in our day-to-day work
Read full review Alternatives Considered Avaza takes the easy of
Asana and adds the invoicing and bookkeeping capabilities you need all in one place.
Read full review East Projects integrates with other financial systems such as NetSuite and Compass, which allows a great financial view into the existing and future projects and overall financial health of our resourcing. Other systems, such as
Wrike and MS Projects, just focus on project/task management, whereas this is a one-stop shop. It also allows us to manage internal resources.
Read full review Return on Investment Avaza has made it easier to see how long I spend on certain types of projects and where I could be spending more time. Read full review Increased team collaboration improved the results significantly, because we managed to reduce the amount of time wasted on unnecessary iterations, therefore reducing costs. The reasonable pricing enabled us to enjoy the service we needed with with less impact on our budget than we've expected. Read full review ScreenShots
