Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Project
We use Microsoft Project to plan and track literally hundreds of projects concurrently. The resource pool capabilities allow for consistent utilization of resources. Most fall short in that they are unaware of the complete capabilities or functionality of Project.
- Resource allocation if the resource pooling is utilized.
- Load leveling, to insure realistic timelines.
- Financial tracking provided all data is loaded.
- Automatic updates has always been a problem area.
- Portability if a user is mobile, data required is not always available.
- It would be much better if it was a cloud-based app.
- For the price it can do the basics of project management.
- Can track but requires a licensed user to capture and enter all of the data.
Selected Microsoft due to cost verses capabilities and ease of use.
