What differentiates Microsoft Project from other similar products?

Microsoft project is designed for ,managing complex or large scale projects . It makes it easy to evaluate project proposals , ideas , while allowing project managers to model diverse project execution and management scenarios for departmental or organizational-wide projects,.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Microsoft Project's support for multiple project views has left the most impression on me. From grid views, to Kanban styled views, to Gantt chart views etc Microsoft Projects makes the day to day management of projects to be flexible, ensuring our project management approach and strategies are as productive as possible.

What do you dislike most about this product?

In-app communication within Microsoft Projects is limited and non-existent in most cases. There is no provision for quickly messaging a team member or even sending reminder pings. Asides the aforementioned, Microsoft projects integrates poorly with non-Microsoft software tools.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I recommend Microsoft Projects for large sized organizations, as it is likely to be too complex for the simplistic day to day needs of smaller teams and organizations.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
  • Security Protects
