ProjectManager.com Erfahrungen

Vorteile

Projectmanager.com is a robust SaaS platform for business management and collaborating teams. Its biggest highlight is its dashboard which is extremely customizable and keeps a track of project progress, team communications and tentative project plans, which lets you grasp the whole scenario in a few moments. Being a web based software, you can access it from anywhere and on any device provided you have internet connectivity.

Nachteile

Projectmanager.com has a few bugs that prevent you from using the software to its full extent. Apart from this, it requires lengthy and manual inout operations such as entering data and allocating resources to projects, which makes it time consuming and requires automation. Also the customer service needs to be more active and helpful.

Vorteile

Can log into software on any computer as long as you have a login and password.
It has a good scheduling tool.
A lot of Project Management templates to choose from.

Nachteile

There is no notification prior to your 30 day trial expiration and if you forget to cancel you automatically enroll into a contract and payments will be billed each month.
An emailed consolidated contract agreement would be beneficial once user automatically enrolled following trial expiration.

Vorteile

When they charge your credit card for a service that you didn't know you were subscribed to with no invoices or any other communication.

Nachteile

The product is mediocre at best and that's why we decided to not use it after spending about 20 mins in the system. This company just outputs the minimum viable product and then uses free trial scam tactics to bolster their revenue. I can't imagine any company that values their data would want to be involved with this company. Once I found these transactions it took days to get my account close, what do you think will happen when you need customer service to resolve the many issues/bugs in when you are a paying customer. Avoid at all costs!

I really liked all the features about this software. They all worked together to make managing my projects so much simpler and take so much less time.

Vorteile

ProjectManager.com use enables consistent time management of events & tasks when acclimating new team members to performance expectations.

Nachteile

ProjectManager.com report customizations & forecasts are limited. In addition, we have had some international interface issues.

Vorteile

found projectmanager.com to be better than MS project; more than an alternative.It has great team collaboration and can be accessed anywhere . The user interface is very simple . very easy to use with very useful features.

Nachteile

price could be more affordable, could launch some offers for users. forecasting features could be built into the system and report generation could be improved.

Vorteile

Does all the standard project scheduling and tracking that you'd expect from the software

Nachteile

The interface can be a bit clunky especially if you have to adjust values from your initial estimates.

Vorteile

This application possesses some many advanced features which makes it stand out as a very resourceful tool in project management. It is easy to monitor in realtime the ongoing projects from the project control panel which is easily customized.

Nachteile

Some manual resources are very long and stringent especially when assigning resources against tasks. The customer service is also terrible as you only get to speak with Derek if there are existing issues,there is no other phone number to call to assistance to speak with a human.

Vorteile

Overall a great platform that is user friendly and quick to learn. Being able to easily share projects and monitor timelines with team members is a big plus.

Nachteile

Like some other prospective customers I was lured into downloading the free trial based on very deceptive marketing. You are forced to sign up for a subscription in order to download the free trial. If you do not cancel the subscription before your free trial ends you are automatically billed for the maximum number of licences on the edition you've selected. With a no-return policy I asked for a credit and my subscription to be changed to the personal edition. They gladly changed my subscription but said nothing about a credit. When I enquired I was informed that I would be billed again for the new month. I'm appalled at the way they mislead. Expensive lesson learnt on my side.

Vorteile

It is easy to use set up, use and share plans making working with the teams more cohesive. I also like the flexibility of being able to add custom fields. Teams are beginning to use the diaries to allow them to see what they should be working on and when.

Nachteile

It is difficult to see what everyone working on when you have multiple projects. There is not a single overview of the projects and task breakdown.

The plans don't take into consideration any holidays or leave so it is easy allocate tasks when people are not available.

Vorteile

Works from time to time, it has received functionality and UI updates over the time, still somehow it's usable at the end of the day.

Nachteile

Everything is broken, I think that you should try to use it inside your company on a daily basis to quickly spot how time you spend in simple tasks like:

- Moving rows
- Adjusting dates
- Finding and correcting deleted timesheet entries
- Having read-only projects is impossible
- History of changes and who, along with historic undo is impossible
- Reports take ages to generate
- Random downtimes or error 500 messages

Vorteile

It's a good SaaS to manage projects and resources. It allow us to manage our whole portfolio and keep in track used resources.

Nachteile

It doesn't have custom reports. On the other hand, it doesn't have an API to obtain hours for each project in a simple way. I would like a simple API allow us to ask for project id, and return consolidate information like all kind of hours entered regarding this project Id.

Vorteile

Good interface with a good blend functionality from traditional PM to agile kanban and story boards.

Nachteile

Resourcing of a project is a weak point, it's not possible to assign resourcing by % of time or time allocation to a project i.e User 1 90% and User 2 50% to the project so it's very inflexible in this way.

----BEWARE---- The free trial is only free for 30 days before this you have to have cancelled or you will be charged. I was charge over £700 to my personal account despite all the users being test users associated to my email. Yes it does stipulate this on T&C's but I've had a point blank refusal from them to reverse charges despite cancelling only 2 days late.

Vorteile

The interface is very user friendly and clean. It contains the right amount of information needed to ensure successful project management.

Nachteile

We need a way to switch out assigned resources (while maintaining the required effort) instead of doing it manually. This adds unnecessary time to project plan building when you have to stop to change the resources on every. single. line.
Also, if there was a way to allow more than 2/3 project tabs to shown at the top of the screen, that would be great.

Vorteile

Ring menu and icons are easy to identify, customising columns practical overall not overly complex.

Nachteile

I haven't found anything i dislike, though i'm not using every function available.

Vorteile

Simple and easy to use

Nachteile

Reporting module is not robust.

Vorteile

I can easily track and update my project using this software. Very helpful to my team to plot the activities and compute the cost of the project.

Nachteile

So far, No negative feedback about this software because this is very effective to my organization.

Vorteile

We used to managed our projects, resources, and and reporting in different systems. Enter ProjectManager. We have consolidated systems and work more efficiently. Since we've transitioned over I'd say ProjectManager is open on my computer every day. I would highly recommend to all looking for a new way to handle project management and time keeping.

Nachteile

File size is limited when uploading documents, printing is awkward to edit and format, limited styling options when saving plans to PDF.

Vorteile

Easy to track resources and good for planning. Excellent high level view of project and able to add milestones so that I can keep track of important deadlines and artefacts to be produced.

Nachteile

When working on a lot of projects it can be cumbersome to search for them in different places, but this is the only slight drawback that it has.

Vorteile

The easy use tool for project scheduling, resource allocating, costing and construction work monitoring.

Nachteile

The insertion of design incorporated in the project to be able to ease the use of other quantifying software and automatically, schedules, resource allocating.

Vorteile

Easy of use, intuitive interface, reporting capabilities

Vorteile

This is an all-in-one package for project management. It is in line with most of the methodologies (at least with waterfall ones) and supports managing the projects easily. All the needed functionalities are on place.

Nachteile

The design and layouts look like from the past of like from MS Project. It is a cons as we need to expirt most of the reports for other stakeholders and this is just not right for showing to other people. They expect higher quality of "image" - more flat design etc.
