Microsoft Project vs Procore Project Management comparison

"The most valuable features of this solution are the scheduling, managing the resources, budgeting, tracking the progress, viewing the progress, reporting, and it is very easy to use."

"Microsoft Project integrates well with the Microsoft Office family of applications. It has plugins that interact with it and you can use it with Microsoft Teams. We can use plugins to communicate with JIRA, Projectplace, and Planview. It's not widely used in the company, of course, but it's something that can interact with the official tools that we have."

"Technical support has been very helpful."

"It is very stable. I haven't had any kind of issues with it. It is also very scalable."

"The solution is very complete. It makes it a great option for project managers and they can use it extensively in almost any organizational setup."

"The most valuable feature of Microsoft Project is the reminder feature. This feature allows for the system to send notifications or reminders to individuals who have a task to complete once someone has finished their task. This has been especially useful in situations where multiple people are involved in a task. For example, if I have completed my task and the next person is just beginning, the system will send them a reminder to notify them of my completion. This feature has proven to be very beneficial and convenient for me in my tasks."

"The daily tracker is valuable."

"We value all the features. Previously, we used Jenkins for similar purposes, but Microsoft Projects works fine. We're looking to improve integration with different clusters on production and automate various aspects of software development. This includes integration for alerting, monitoring, and pricing purposes, among other things."

"The financial side of Procore Project Management is better."

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

"Other companies have been using it for years, and it is a very stable platform."

"Planview FLEX licensing gives us a central repository where all the projects are stored so you can check the finances, resources, etc. It's quite useful to have everything connected. We don't have that for Microsoft Project. It's disconnected. The reporting capabilities could also be better, especially with finance and resources. Everybody complains about reports. That's why we need another tool."

"Project is not easy to scale. It isn't a cloud-based solution where everybody can utilize it at the same time without version issues when you save your file. We use it at the enterprise level, but you have to share the files to others within your organization through Teams or SharePoint. One improvement would be to transition to cloud-based functionality. However, that might limit the functionality in other ways."

"Microsoft Project should provide better documentation regarding the usage of the solution."

"The only suggestion for improvement is the generative AI feature for task suggestions; this is the main concern so far, something nice to have."

"When I have too many elements or items in a project, it becomes cumbersome, especially during printing."

"There needs to be better integration with other Microsoft products such as SharePoint, and the like."

"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 setup and scalability can be somewhat difficult for new users until they gain knowledge."

"It takes time to use it. It is not entirely intuitive, so there are areas for improvement."

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

"It would be nice if the tool can reduce its operational cost. It would make it more competitive."

"We have to pay for a yearly license for Microsoft Project."

"I am not aware of any additional costs apart from the standard licensing fees of the solution."

"The product is not expensive. My company has opted for an annual subscription."

"It probably was $30 per license on a monthly basis. There is no additional fee."

"You only need a Team's license in order to use Microsoft Project within Teams, which is very helpful."

"The solution is expensive."

"I rate the solution's pricing a three out of ten."

"The license is a one-time payment but it is expensive."

"The tool is cheap and I would rate it a ten out of ten."
