"It is a little rigorous in its methodology and is cumbersome. For example, I have a hard stop date and I would like a project to end by a specific date, but this is not how this solution works. It sorts of spits out the project date based on your resource availability, dependencies, and so on. This sort of project planning works in theory, but that's not always the case. It also relies heavily on resources entering their time into the system, that is, how much time they worked on each of the tasks so that it can sort of consistently update the project. I know that in a lot of organizations, including ours, it is almost impossible to get them to track the time. In terms of additional features, they can include more integration with Microsoft because integration is going to be a key functionality."
"The solution could have more compact dashboards, such as one finds with Planview."
"We need to be able to compare milestones, calls, and other variables regarding the projects we are working on. I have to contract developers to make reports, which is where things get complicated. They need to develop personal and custom fields for us."
"When a lot of users logged onto the site, it took a big toll on the service. Therefore, there is a scalability issue."
"The solution needs to be much more stable."
"It may be considered expensive."
"It should be more agile and more flexible when it comes to customization."
"The solution should be made more collaborative."
"Microsoft Project Server's user interface is pretty average, and sometimes it can have bugs."
