    Microsoft Project: A Great Management Asset

    Date: Nov 29 2022
    Summary

    Overall, Microsoft Project is the best Project Management related software I have used. The ability to quickly create GANTT tables and establish critical paths, assign resources and build schedules that take into account other interrelated factors can be a very powerful asset in the right hands. The only drawback of the program is the cost which as noted may put it out of reach for many smaller entities.

    Positive

    There are many positives with this program, the various features are nicely explained within the program and are easy to use. For example, the GANTT chart features and customization options provides a wonderful illustration of the tasks and overall course of the project. The user interface of the product is excellent and meets or exceeds other Microsoft branded products.

    Negative

    I had access to Microsoft Project via my educational institution and I used this access for both academic projects and personal usage. That said my only real con for this program is the cost, the cost for this product is fairly high and the yearly subscription for the on-premise versions varies from several hundred to over a thousand which is cost-prohibitive to many smaller entities.

    Complicated, But it Works

    Date: Nov 02 2022
    Summary

    Once you learn the tool, it is really helpful. It helps your team stay organized and on target. However, it takes time to really grasp the way the product works and is not as easy to learn as some other project management softwares.

    Positive

    It has helped my team stay on track with projects in our office, allows for us to see the trajectory of the next few months in a detailed way, and has several layouts for folks to choose what is the best for them. My favorite part of projects is its integration with other Microsoft products, since my office uses these exclusively. It enhances the value of Projects, Teams, etc since they all work seamlessly together!

    Negative

    There was a steep learning curve to the software, and I still feel like we are not utilizing it fully. There are lots of online forums and guides, but it is not as user friendly as I'd like it to be on its own.
