Overall Satisfaction with Easy Projects

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
  • More custom charts options.
  • Recent update remove[d] the option to "save as" an attachment file, so [it made] more difficult the files/documents' organization.
  • Set or find a filter with "date" is hard to do. Many times someone in our team makes the mistake to modify all dates in a project because dates range in the dashboard task looks like a filter, or we don't have a date filter.
  • API or conections to another tools like PowerBi or Tableau
  • Better filters, is really hard find filter to a date range.
  • Track Deadlines
  • Check roles into the project
  • Assign responsabilities into the project
  • Comments into the task
  • Custom fields for the requests
  • I cannot answer this question, because I do not handle that data.
Alongside Easy Projects we use Jira too to develop projects, write stories, make EPICS, [and] make QA, so maybe EP needs to improve that part [like] how to track QA performance.
The principal use for Jira is the creation and tracking related to Bugs in our systems, and the creation of Task to request IT services in a particular functionality

Atlassian JIRA Align (formerly AgileCraft)
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.

  • Budget Projects
  • DeadLines Projects
  • Roles and responsabilities into the projects
  • Creating inamics dashboards
  • Will be awesome use EP with Machine Learning, BI or Data Science
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

I don't think my evaluation will change again with respect to EP, it seems to me to be a very solid and easy-to-use tool, in addition to the improvements it has had that have increased its usability and ease of use

Easy Projects Implementation

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

Easy Projects Support

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
