    Landscape Management Network
    LMN is best used if you go all in on it, otherwise you'll end having to use several other software to round it out. Making use of budgeting, estimating, timesheet, job costing, invoicing, payment, planning can all be done with this software. If used to it's potential, i can make running a business a seamless and timesaving endeavour.

    ProjectLibre
    As a project management tool, especially with more straightforward timelines and components, ProjectLibre is a great alternative to some of the costly PM software tools. I have managed many projects with both MS Project and ProjectLibre, and I think ProjectLibre is a great alternative, especially when I've worked in regions of the world where users cannot afford other PM tools.

    ProjectLibre
    • Customer service is not there - I understand that the product is open source but some kind of forum with FAQs, etc. can come in handy
    • App crashes at time for no reason. There have been instances where you try to create a new task and all the diagrams and other items get messed up

    There are a lot of discussions online about it, and a customer addition based manual. While that can lead to some confusion, I am not the kind of person who likes talking on the phone. So it is easier to go online with ProjectLibre!

    We decided to go with ProjectLibre because it is a free tool and there is a great community that supports us in case there are any questions or concerns about the software. This has allowed us to be able to invest time without having to worry about licensing costs or anything else.

    • Allows us to track every labour hours to know where time is spent. Informs where we need to see improvement

    ProjectLibre
    • ProjectLibre is free so it has allowed us to collaborate on MS Project files for users that run a Mac or Linux machine
    • Learning curve is minimal since it so closely resembles MS Project
    • Not all MS Project features (especially the newer editions) are present but it's best for users that are not the primary PM to user ProjectLibre.
