Nurul Asyikin Wahab - PeerSpot reviewer
Management Design Civil Structure at Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd
Efficient project management with robust data tracking and an easy setup
When I have too many elements or items in a project, it becomes cumbersome, especially during printing. Non-technical users do not need all the data, so it's primarily for technical personnel. Without guidance, it's challenging to use the app. With guidance and expert knowledge, it becomes manageable, however, it's not for non-technical teams. The worst part is handling too many items, like 1,000 items, which Microsoft Project struggles with, especially when printing. Printing on A3 size is quite burdensome, so I prefer viewing it on a tablet or computer. On a tablet or phone, I can see the full project elements depending on the screen size.

Has improved workflow accuracy and team autonomy across multiple departments
I find several features of Process Street especially valuable. Dynamic workflow management allows me to update processes “in-flight” without causing disruption. Automation capabilities have streamlined onboarding, client delivery, and project milestones. Zapier integrations have unified multiple platforms, including ClickUp, the CRM, and Front, ensuring seamless data flow. The tool supports scalability, managing 20–30 web builds simultaneously with predictable outcomes. Its customizable templates make it easy for teams to create or adapt workflows for new clients or services. Cross-department flexibility means that it is used successfully in HR, finance, marketing, and project management. Accountability tools, such as task assignments and transparent tracking, ensure that nothing falls behind.

"Dependencies (not typically effectively used in "Agile" techniques) allow understanding of actual project status and challenges."
"The Gantt chart view is great."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."

Cons

"Microsoft Project should include more visualization, queries to filter out data, and more reporting structures."
"The licensing cost is expensive and has room for improvement."
"The solution's interface seems to be an outdated one. So, I would like its interface to be improved."
"Its user interface could be a little bit more intuitive. Not everybody has the luxury of going to training and understanding which button does what and the functionality. The user interface should be improved to make it a little bit more intuitive. It is not user-friendly. I've dealt with it for a number of years, so it is not hard for me to figure it out, but you would need a quick reference guide or something to say, "Here are the basics. This is how you do X.""
"The dashboard could be improved."
"The only suggestion for improvement is the generative AI feature for task suggestions; this is the main concern so far, something nice to have."
"I find that MS Project has limited control in comparison to other solutions in the same sphere."
"I would like Microsoft Project to better align with our business needs, with improved consultant support for setup and integration features that show all relevant aspects at the top level."
"I would like to see enhanced built-in compliance reporting dashboards designed specifically for small firms."
"Process Street could benefit from expanded in-app analytics or deeper native integrations with CRMs and project management platforms to reduce reliance on third-party tools such as Zapier."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It gets expensive when having to add all of the plugins and everything that you need."
"We purchase perpetual licenses due to the high cost of subscriptions, which are about 1,000 Australian dollars."
"The solution has a decent annual license subscription cost, which is not high."
"You only need a Team's license in order to use Microsoft Project within Teams, which is very helpful."
"Its price could be reduced a little."
"We have to pay for a yearly license for Microsoft Project."
"You do not have to invest much in terms of configuring this solution to suit your needs."
"It was a three-year license deal that was reconciled on a quarterly basis. It is a reasonably priced product, and I consider that we got good value for money."
