Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Project

In my organization, Microsoft Project is used purely for managing, monitoring and showing the progress of software developments. The Gantt [charts] are developed through Microsoft Project and are then shared and in this way continuously updated on the timing of development and delays if there were any.
  • Management of multiple resources on heterogeneous projects
  • Easy project sharing
  • Helps in the sudden change of scheduled tasks
  • If shared the user must have a locally installed project
  • Working with many resources makes it difficult to view the Gantt chart
  • Working on very long projects and others that are too short makes the chart not very effective
  • Less time [spent on] managing resources
  • Easy identification of the progress of developments
  • Early intuition of delays in deploying
  • If you are a software development company and you need to program the development on the basis of dates established with the customer
  • If you have to share with the developers what the priority tasks are and what the different deadlines are it's definitely a software that can do this task and is universally recognized.
