Mouloud Fourali - PeerSpot reviewer
Visual project planning enhances collaboration and proactive management
The dependency management in Microsoft Project is highly valuable, as it visually maps dependencies and impacts within a project plan.

Pros

"The solution offers excellent resource allocation tools and is flexible, particularly in portfolio management."

"The stability of the 2019 version is quite good."

More Microsoft Project Server pros

"The coordination between the field and the office without the need to print or physically transport drawings is very valuable."
 

Cons

"There need to be more tutorials available to users."
"It is not updated in real-time. Sometimes it, therefore, is not accurate."
"Stability of the solution is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"Improvements are needed in the technical support process, aiming for a better user experience."
"We sometimes need support from the IT department for installing and deploying the Microsoft Project Server. It is not user-friendly, and users cannot install it themselves."
"This solution could improve by adding integration with Primavera schedules to allow the reading and management of them."
"Collaboration should be better integrated in the desktop version."
"The main drawback of Microsoft Project Server is that it is offline. Having it online would offer better access to other managers."
More Microsoft Project Server cons

"It is not entirely intuitive, so there are areas for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the Microsoft Project Server could improve, it is expensive here in Africa. When comparing Microsoft Project Server to Oracle Primavera for us, Microsoft Project Server is quite cost-effective."
"There are some payments related to the licensing cost of Microsoft Project Server."
"Microsoft Project Server is relatively cheaper than other products."
"I rate the pricing a one out of ten because the price is way too high."
"I would rate the price a six out of ten."
"We have an enterprise agreement with Microsoft, and our licensing is based on the agreement."
"I think they need more flexibility with licensing, because there are preconceived ideas that don't allow as much flexibility with the various licenses."
"I'm not quite sure about the licensing costs. We're probably paying somewhere in the neighborhood of about 80,000 to 90,000 a year for our current on-prem because we handle our own licensing. As far as Project Online is concerned, we're still trying to get a good handle on that. It looks like it is going to be in a neighborhood of about 120,000 to 150,000 a year, but we're getting a lot more capability out of it."
