Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Project

We use Microsoft Project to schedule and track work across the organization. Everything from short (1-2 months) to long (12-18 months), cross-functional and individual contributor. Microsoft Project offers the versatility that we need when something more dynamic than an Excel spreadsheet is required to plan tasks, durations, dependencies, and resources.
  • Critical path management
  • Automatic scheduling of tasks
  • SharePoint integration with Project Server
  • Formatting the page for printing Gantt charts is always a challenge if you want it to be legible without a microscope.
  • Keeps timelines and critical paths visible to the team
  • Identifies gaps in resource availability based on future scheduled work
Microsoft project is very versatile. We use it primarily for engineering development projects, but we have also used it within our HR group and quality group to plan projects with a lot of tasks and dependencies.
