Ability to view resource availability across projects
It would be great if we can create dependencies across project tasks Ability to define a master project schedule based on subprojects
Able to schedule tasks across multiple projects, especially with shared resources
The app is extremely easy to use and on-board. Entering projects is a breeze and seeing your projected tasks is simple on the dashboard. You can use deadlines and link tasks to project out. You can also check capacities of people. There is even a time sheet built in to track how long it takes so next year's plans are easier to predict.
There are only a few features that I dislike. 1. When someone changes the project, you get a notification, but it isn't logged as to what the change was. 2. You can't customize alerts per user; it's per user group. 3. There is nothing fun about it, unlike Asana.
We've been using ProjectManager.com for about a year. We use this service for enterprise-wide projects, while our team uses Asana for more simple shorter tasks and items. ProjectManager keeps the company organized and on-track when used properly. This means you need a Project Manager to be most effective. It takes quite a bit of time to build a well-thought out plan.
It's not only convenient but it's a necessity that any project management tool offers full integration with our company's existing software. The fact that this is able to seamless do so across Salesforce and Dropbox, and several others is what I like best.
While it's intuitive and straightforward, I think wish the customization to the plans were a bit more robust in terms of formatting its presentation.
One of the biggest challenges or barriers is getting cross-functional teams to fully commit and utilize this. So I like the fact that this PM tool mitigates barriers and makes accessibility across devices seamless.
Features such as the Gantt Chart and Overview View. But all of this comes at a very high cost.
ProjectManager is not competitive, only really caters to larger organizations, not smaller ones. I would recommend you try to match Trello. Trello is used by a variety of IT Industries, and it is our go to everytime. Perhaps consider a free restricted version?
Project Management, Time Management, Progress on Projects can be evaluated
It is very easy to track my project progress and engage in the planning of the phases
It could be challenging to convert all the data stored in the platform to other sources.
It helps with my projects in terms of planning, tracking, and collecting lessons learned
I like that tool, provides different functions which allow you to maintain an internal communication with the entire team, achieving that tasks are developed in the best way and thus improve collaboration among all members of the team.
its capacity can be limited for a few moments, which can make it difficult to manage and use, but this can be improved in a matter of a few minutes..
This tool is very useful to develop and execute an increase in collaboration between all members of the work team, thus improving communication and performance of the working group.
training for a new user, report chart is useful
It's nothing, but interface is quite bad, we want to customize
It's necessary for management, tracking progress
It is simple. user friendly product and does not require much training to use.
There are some of the basic requirements that are missing. 1. Ability to provide different types of access to projects for the users with same role. eg: If there are 5 managers and we would like to provide Manager A with edit access and rest of the managers with view only access to a specific project, it is not possible. It is all access or no access on projects. 2. Ability to track the changes made by other users.
Streamlines the project management activities and have a portfolio dashboard which helps the PMO.
The UI is pretty clean and to the point.
The API is not open and there are practically no tools that natively integrate with this product.
We use PM to manage our ISP's construction team and have not seen any dramatic benefits.
the huge overview of the projects, the workload for each developer, we can see the workload based on hours thats great, we can organize our developer over all projects, the reporting is good
We have a huge extra effort with the capacity planning. If i set a day in the calender as a holiday or non working day. The tool count and show the hours in the work flow. We do not work on a holiday and we have extra effort to set those hours on 0. We have a lot of Task in a project. If i forget to set the holidays to 0, our capacity planing is wrong. If we do not solve this problem this will be the show stoper for this tool in our project planning.
If we can not solve the problem with the capacity planing an the imports/API we can not use this tool further on
