Overall Satisfaction with ProjectLibre

ProjectLibre is being utilized as a replacement for Microsoft Project. ProjectLibre is a low-cost option and allows all of the functionality to track projects and milestones. It is currently only being used by a small group in the department. It addresses the concerns of project track and allows for staying on track.
  • ProjectLibre is great for project management. It allows us to establish milestones and timeline planning for projects.
  • It allows us to stay organized among multiple projects.
  • It is extremely simple to use with a simple interface. It takes little time to plan out a project with key dates and provides a nice graphic.
  • The interface could use some updating. The design is old and clunky looking.
  • The graphic design and editing features could be increased to provide a better overall presentation of the timeline.
  • I would also like to see a quick dashboard of all my upcoming milestones related to my projects.
  • It allows us to stay on track with milestones and not miss customer dates.
  • It allows us to be more efficient and take on more projects.
  • It also allows us to quickly share status updates with other interested parties.
Microsoft Project has a great interface and features. However, the cost of ProjectLibre overshadows anything that Microsoft can provide. The cost to benefits that ProjectLibre provides along with their similar features to Microsoft makes ProjectLibre a leader in the project management software category.
ProjectLibre is appropriate in any scenario where a timeline plan with milestones is needed such as product development. It is less suited in scenarios where multiple deviations from a timeline occur.
