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. The online version facilitates easy collaboration without having to share multiple versions of the file. The Gantt chart is also a very powerful tool for a visual presentation of sequences, critical paths, and execution processes, which simplifies comprehension for users.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The ability to look at the resource loading is most valuable."
"Microsoft Project Server is a scalable solution."
"We use the tool in our IT-related projects. All IT efforts are managed using the Microsoft Project Server. Every week, we have a project status meeting where we demonstrate the project's status using the tool. We track tasks and progress, assign owners, and monitor milestones and all project-related work using it."
"Microsoft Project Server is quite a powerful tool and offers a good way of seeing dependencies and interactions, along with baselines."
"The solution's ease of use is its most valuable aspect."
"Demand workflow Resource management SharePoint site integration"
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is easy to understand and navigate."
"It's a great tool for helping us manage our project's plan."
"Zoho Sprints is a defect-logging tool."
"Zoho Sprints can be integrated with other Zoho products, providing additional functionality."
"Zoho Sprints is stable with minimal downtime."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
 

Cons

"I only encountered stability issues with the 2010 version."
"Collaboration within the tool is lacking when you compare it to online or cloud-based tools."
"The product is difficult to use for complex projects."
"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."
"The reporting in the desktop version is not highly customizable or professional compared to other solutions."
"The solution is stable for small projects but when used for larger projects it can become heavy and slow to load and operate."
"I'd like it if we could divide out the project calendars. On one project server, we might follow five projects or more at one time, and we'd like to see all of the items at once so that it becomes a long loop, but one where we can identify different projects in tandem and then focus on which we need to at the time. While I only have visibility into one, I'd like to see several at a time."
"There are more user-friendly products on the market that I would suggest using in preference to this one."
"There is a need to improve the charts and velocity calculations in Zoho Sprints."
"Zoho Sprints is a confusing tool, and you need to get used to it."
"The interface of Zoho Sprints is an area with certain shortcomings."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have an enterprise agreement with Microsoft, and our licensing is based on the agreement."
"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."
"The licensing was procured before my involvement."
"There is a subscription model for different types of users for different types of roles."
"Microsoft Project Server is an expensive solution. Small businesses will not be able to afford it."
"I cannot comment on the price as I was not responsible for purchasing the solution."
"We pay an annual licensing fee for the solution."
"There is an annual license required for this solution."
"The price of Zoho Sprints is between 10 to 25 USD per user per month."
"Zoho Sprints is a more cost-effective solution than Jira."
