Easy Projects for easy project management

Rating: 7 out of 10

The very first step in the project management process is to settle down with your project concepts and initiation led by your project idea. We are able to use Easy Projects to achieve this goal by easily adding and updating our new and existing projects to track them as they progress through their course.
  • Reporting is easy to see and produce.
  • Adding and updating is very quick and intuitive.
  • Resource Allocation is really simple and easy to see.
  • Allow stakeholders to track progress through the Client Portal.
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.

Easy to use, limited in complexity management.

The business problem is utilizing a platform, which takes into account the ability to manage and track complex to simple initiatives, rolling up into programs that then ultimately report out to the portfolio level. the difficulty is trying to align all three needs from one single platform. we are presently evaluating this platform to review if this has the ability to manage in real-time and report through multiple users. we are looking for a platform that can easily support all these needs. our hope is it is identified as simple and easy to utilize with minimal superuser needs and manages complex initiatives.
  • Easy to manipulate information.
  • Easy collaboration.
  • Ramp up is intuitive.
Discrete initiatives are easy to track and manage. Program level is not as comprehensive.

We use Easy Projects in our organization as a project management tool. In my specific case, our Web Project managers open tasks (daily tasks) and them assign to a Web Builder. Later I can track times, performance, check dashboards, etc.
In addition EP help to or Organization track budget in projects, deadlines, resources administration, roles into a specific project the last one is very important, in some case you could be a Project manager or Requestor en others you could be de Owner.
Maybe a API or tool to connect EP with PowerBI will be awesome.
  • 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
In Lenovo, we are more than 2000+ workers, so I can not say if the size company is a limitation to apply Easy Projects. I'm sure that EP could adapt for the small-medium-large enterprises. For me, EP is perfectly suited to project management, checking the time, resources, budget, deadlines, [etc.] so [it] is all that a project manager needs.
about less appropriate, I think more referred to the charts and dashboards, exist others tool with more capabilities like PowerBI, maybe a connection between them will be great.

Very Powerful Platform

Easy Project is being used as a project management and staff workload management tool. It is being used across the whole organization. It addresses budget control, project management, staff working hrs, and workload management.
  • Easy to use.
  • Good to check the workload
  • Easy to track working hrs.
It works well when I need to log my hrs, check project tasks and associated assigned hrs, and project progress. It's also good to check the coming weeks or months of resource loading so that people can plan to take more projects or reject projects. It needs to improve the internal communication tunnel.

Overall good software for task management, time sheets, and project progress management.

We are using Easy Projects to facilitate project management. We are using it mostly for time sheet, time management and project progress management. Easy projects is used across the whole organization. Depending on your role in the company, you will have a different use for it.
  • Time management
  • TIme sheet
  • Project progress management
Easy project is well suited for time sheet completion, project hourly budget management, project progress management. As of now, I cannot find a scenario where it is less appropriate. I don't use it enough to tell.

I don't have to think about it :)

  • Keeping track of projects
  • Allowing the project manager to check on the status of a project without bothering me
  • A place to keep notes
  • A place to keep files
[Easy Projections] works well for collaboration.

Easy Projects makes managing different projects easy. I submit projects for my marketing team to complete and I can easily see what work they've done, a timeframe, deadline, feedback, and questions. Easy Projects makes it easy to collaborate with others in my organization and I enjoy the program. I would recommend this software!
  • Simple format
  • Great notifications
  • Easy collaboration
I use Easy Projects for large marketing projects. I will enter information into a custom form that asks me for specifics on my project. From there I choose a preferred deadline and submit it. After reviewing the project, my team approves it and can leave comments on the project. I can add in questions or concerns, and it helps us work together to get the project completed.

Easy Projects is used widely across the company in all departments. It is our main tool for time tracking, project budget tracking, resource tracking, and project management.
  • Very good tool for time tracking
  • Easy to manage resourcing
  • Links to financials so you can tack project budget costs
  • Tracks overall project health
Well suited--time tracking, project plan creation for smaller projects (fewer than 50 tasks) because past that it would get a bit messy
Less appropriate--when you have large plans to make with more than 200 lines; Easy Projects is not that user friendly, so it could get very messy to scroll up and down to find your task/line. There's no easy way to review a large project plan.

We're using EP across the Marketing department at our company and so far it's been great for me. As a developer in our department I really like the Custom Form features, it streamlines the process of feature request/bug reporting, as I'm able to request certain fields to be filled out for reach request (like a short description, software/os/browser version, attach a screenshot, etc.).
  • Great UI: Easy to manage tasks and the main view helps better understand the workload.
  • Top notch collaboration tools: Comments, assignments, etc.
  • Neat time logging feature.
It's a great tool for project management—arranging projects/tasks, collaborating with colleagues, and seeing how much time we spend on each item is really helpful. Mentions are great; they save a lot of time and the need to email/slack people. Custom forms are incredible and save TONS of time for both me and my teammates that are sending tons of requests every week. On the other hand features like Business Intelligence and Reports look a bit cluttered and don't provide a lot of insight, so I rarely use them.

We handle the complete project through easy projects. We use it for data mining and tracking the project's status. We have multiple projects running at a time and Easy Projects makes the experience so overwhelming by showing the status of all the projects on one page. We can even refer to the old closed projects and see the timelines of the current project tasks. The problems with project allocation, sharing updates on different projects, and meeting the milestones are addressed through Easy Projects.
  • Project management gets very easy with Easy Projects.
  • Accurate analysis and tracking multiple projects.
  • Resource allocation along with checking their availability.
I really like that after completion of the work I can send the notification of the completed work by clicking just one button. Following up and asking for updates on particular could be handled somehow, that is, if I comment but I don't want to send it as a notification to all the people, I should be able to control it. At present, I can't. Also, we can't change the task progress like the project manager can. I can just update as "I am done" at the end of the task, thus I can't notify if my task is 50% complete. Possibly it is related to the level of access.

Easy Projects is currently being used by our entire marketing department.
  • Solid project management tool
  • Easy to maintain clear and clean records
  • Provides a collaborative workspace
Easy Projects is a solid project management tool for all types of organizations. It helps you stay on top of all of your projects in one easy-to-use interface. I do think the tool works best when you have one administrator responsible for creating the projects that all other users can plug into. Easy Projects allows our team to work cross-functionally on various types of projects.

I had no choice in the matter, but I guess Easy Projects is pretty okay.

We use Easy Projects to track project hours and budget throughout our organization. I typically just use Easy Projects to keep track of how many hours I spend on specific projects to aid in billing purposes. It was much the same with the previous project management software we used: management used it to track budget and staffing, and I would use it to enter my hours each pay period.
  • Lets me keep track of what I bill to each project throughout the week.
  • Generates custom reports so I know how much of my time is going to each project.
  • Doesn't seem to have any bugs that I encounter.
I had no part in the decision to use Easy Projects, and as yet have not used the management functions available with Easy Projects. It is a piece of software I use to enter my hours. The last software package we used did the same thing. I am very neutral on this topic.

Easy Projects: It made our projects easier.

We are using Easy Projects in our marketing office for project management purposes. We use it to track progress of jobs requiring graphic design work, and it serves as an archive for previous jobs.

We open a job in Easy Projects and fill out customized fields to describe the job (size, envelope needed for mailing, design suggestions, delivery location) and upload any needed files (word document of text for the publication, photos/logos, etc.). We then assign users (graphic designers, print production coordinator, etc.) to the job and assign them tasks with end dates to complete.
Day to day, we perform most of our work via the dashboard screen in Easy Projects, which gives you an overview of all the open tasks and who they are assigned to and the end dates.

When jobs are completed, we then "close" them in the system. The great thing is that we can go back and search "closed" jobs. Since we've been using it for several years, we have a lot of history on repeat jobs.
  • Easy Projects is great for project management. It allows you to assign users, set tasks and end dates, and keep it all together in one working file/job. It's a project manager's dream -- you can look inside and see exactly what is going on and any missed deadlines.
  • Easy Projects allows good customization of the fields. We have worked it so that in a job file, we can enter info about things specific to publication design -- size, file format, delivery location, etc. And we've been able to change these further over time as our needs change.
  • Easy Projects allows for archiving of completed jobs. You don't have to see them every time you log in, but it's great to be able to go back and search through completed jobs (even several years back) to see what was done last time, who was assigning, costs, etc.
  • Easy Projects allows you to pull reports and export them. This has proved helpful when we needed an overall log of jobs for a client or to pull a large number of costs.
I think as a project management software, Easy Projects is great. We used spreadsheets before, and that led to a whole mess of confusion. Easy Projects gets everything in one place online -- you can access it from anywhere with an Internet connection and everyone is working off the same files. This works well for us as a marketing/graphic design group. Our colleagues in web design use it, as well, I'm told with success. So I know those two scenarios will work with the Easy Projects system. If you are selecting project management software, definitely know what you need a system to do in its most basic form -- then see what additional elements appeal to you. One thing you may want to investigate during your evaluation of Easy Projects is server space. We host this program and its files on an internal server, so we have to be sure there is enough space to accommodate open jobs and archive files.

We've implemented Easy Projects after having searched for a suitable project management software for our company for a while. We were quite pleased to see the number of features provided for the price, because Easy Projects was not just about time tracking and Gannt Charts. It also gave us a chance shift to cloud computing to explore its advantages (we used web storage). It was nice to find out about the great customer support, too - you are being guided through the whole implementation process, from the very beginning.The overall impression was that the guys at Easy Projects take away much of the burden off your shoulders by taking care of many issues thus optimizing the development process.
  • Easy Projects has all the basic features like task, time, budget, issue management, billing and invoicing.
  • It also has a clear, customizable Dashboard with a Project Health chart, Resource Loading chart, Hours by Project chart, Estimated vs Actual Hours chart and widgets.
  • It improves team collaboration with customizable real-time e-mail notifications and alerts, instant file sharing, message boards and due task reminders available.
  • Low-priced monthly accounts can support unlimited projects.
Easy Projects, apparently, suits small businesses and enterprises best. You should choose EP if you need a more complex tool for multiple projects.
