Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Project

We use Microsoft Project within our development, IT, business operations and sales departments. Our development and IT departments use MS project extensively to plan new feature upgrades, issue resolutions, build-out projects and plan future projects. Our sales department primarily used MS project to plan to acquire new clients and sell additional features to our existing client base.
  • Task management is what MS project is made for and it has a vast array of templates for practically any industry.
  • Great and assigning tasks to departments, teams, and individuals.
  • Being able to track company resources and how they are being utilized.
  • MS Project has great integration into the entire MS corporate product line.
  • Then need to improve the UI to be more user-friendly for less technical users.
  • More free online resources so users can train and improve there MS Project skills.
  • Integration into more 3rd party software providers that are none MS.
  • Our development, IT and sales teams have really become more efficient with workflows and completing projects in a timely fashion.
  • ROI has been great since it has cut down man hours dedicated to a project.
  • Give you a great overview of how long a project is taking and how many resources are dedicated to a project.
monday.com is great for smaller projects but lacks the in-depth features that MS projects offer. The customization and templates that MS project offers are amazing and practically cover every industry type.
I would give MS project a 10 if the UI was more modern and easier to use. Also, there need to be more free online resources to enable end-users to learn MS project and advance there skills.
