Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is easy to understand and navigate.""The key things are managing interactions, resource allocation, resource-leveling (enterprise) and as a collaborative tool, because we use it across multiple projects at a time.""The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that the tool's reporting is very good.""The technical support for Microsoft Project Server and the support is very good. Microsoft support is working very well.""Microsoft Project Server is easy to use compared to other similar solutions, such as Primavera. It functions similar to Excel or others Microsoft solutions which makes it simple for most people to be able to use right away.""Resource allocation is the most valuable feature of Microsoft Project Server.""The most valuable features are the gantt charts. It's easy to use for me.""The solution scales well."

Cons
"This is a good product but we have struggled with stability from time to time. The service has stopped intermittently and it has been difficult to find a reason why.""The product is difficult to use for complex projects.""Stability of the solution is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required.""Work needs to be done on collaboration with SharePoint.""The reporting aspects can be improved, which is one of the reasons why I'm using Qlik Sense. In the older on-prem versions, reporting was lackluster, to say the least. Project Online has a better handle on that. However, we will still be using Qlik Sense. We're also looking at an add-on app from a company called OnePlan that adds some additional functionality where Microsoft is not as clean in its approach for things such as portfolio management and some of the trends analysis.""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 must provide Agile and AI features.""The solution could have more compact dashboards, such as one finds with Planview."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I think they need more flexibility with licensing, because there are preconceived ideas that don't allow as much flexibility with the various licenses."
  • "The licensing was procured before my involvement."
  • "It has features that cannot be bought by other rivals, so cost does not matter."
  • "It is on the expensive side."
  • "There is a licensing cost."
  • "There is an annual license required for this solution."
  • "I cannot comment on the price as I was not responsible for purchasing the solution."
  • "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."

    Questions from the Community
