Vorteile

I enjoy using Microsoft Project because it has helped me manage projects in my work area, whether with planning, organizing, or tracking the tasks that need to be completed within the project. Additionally, Microsoft Project allows me to create a task schedule, manage resources, analyze costs, and view detailed reports.

Nachteile

What I don’t like about Microsoft Project is that it’s very complex to learn because it has multiple options that aren’t easy to grasp.

Vorteile

Advanced resource leveling algorithms that automatically adjust project schedules to the capabilities of their people. Customizable templates that apply to design project workflows. Pre-built task dependencies and milestones.

Nachteile

It would be more intuitive for visual design professionals, making it an interface. No collaboration options for team feedback. The resource allocation visualization in this project could be improved.

Vorteile

I'll have to say what I like most about it was how I was able to integrate all my other Microsoft apps and programs with ease

Nachteile

What I liked least about it was that it was definitely not very user friendly especially when it came to the visual aspect in pretty much every aspect.

Vorteile

One thing that stood out to me about using Microsoft Project was how easy it made project management, even the most complex ones, thanks to its great capabilities and adaptability. Working as a research assistant at a university requires me to juggle multiple assignments and projects at once.

Nachteile

The interface's intricate design and features may be overwhelming for someone using it for the first time. Efficacious teamwork is further hindered by the inability to collaborate in real-time without purchasing costly add-ons.

Vorteile

its ability to organize complex projects with clarity, from timelines to resource allocation. Its Gantt chart visualization makes tracking progress intuitive and efficient. Plus, its integration with other Microsoft tools ensures seamless collaboration.

Nachteile

The interface feels outdated, and navigating complex projects can sometimes feel clunky. Additionally, it lacks the flexibility and ease of use found in some modern project management tools.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Microsoft Project

Vorteile

I love the idea of using Microsoft project & have heard others speak very highly of it. I know it has to be one of the more popular software programs in the industry because of how many of my peers are using it. And have been for many, many years. For me, the software was just a little too intimidating. I wish I would have taken advantage of the free online training & courses prior to diving in. I most likely could have got the hang of things & would have felt comfortable presenting it to my team.

Nachteile

Microsoft Projects has such good intentions with this software but I truly just felt it was a too complex & difficult to navigate on the scale I needed it for. I sometimes wish I would have given it more time & may decide to go back to it in the future but for now we switched back to smartsheet as it gets the job done & takes less brain power for me. Which lately has been running close to empty!

Vorteile

I liked Microsoft Project’s robust project tracking and timeline features. It made it easy to organise tasks, set deadlines, and manage resources, which was especially helpful for coordinating HR initiatives.

Nachteile

The interface was complex and could feel overwhelming, especially when managing multiple projects, making it challenging to quickly access key features without extensive setup.

Vorteile

Project is widely used in my industry, so familiarity between projects is a bonus.

Nachteile

The MS Project interface is limiting, and difficult to understand without putting effort into experimentation.

Vorteile

The application has many robust features.

Nachteile

The user experience can be a bit cumbersome.

Vorteile

User-friendly interface, Organizing your projects, Time management made easy and do not have to spend so-much time and auto suggestion of several options for all Microsoft projects, Compatibility with other tools
Effective budget and cost management, Timely project completion
Great flexibility and custom fields, Progress tracking and reporting etc..
Another benefit of the MS Project is the fact it enables back up of files and documents and is cheaper to implement.

Nachteile

A major disadvantage is its not effort-able by the small enterprises & individual users

Vorteile

The ease with which it is possible to share useful project planning and management information with other users in a readily understandable visual format.

Nachteile

None. Its features worked well for my project planning.

Vorteile

As a civil engineer, using this software around 3 years for project management and monitoring purposes. This software facilitates the most precious platform to interpret the tasks and milestones of your projects and also the timeframe of the project. So it is very easy to monitor and track your projects timely through MS project.

Nachteile

So far MS project helped me with the tasks which I wanted to do with it so not yet observed any major issue with it.

Vorteile

Well I like that you can start off simple and then you slowly add more things to any project as it grows. You can track multiple projects at time which is a good if you have a lot of clients.

Nachteile

When I first started using the software back in 2006 things where simple. Now if you are a beginner you must watch video to get familiar with the new changes.

Vorteile

Microsoft Project applications are easily accessible from the MS Office Store and Sharepoint Store and can be used to increase the product's functionality, such as Custom Dashboards etc. The main advantage is large database and well-written documentation, questions and issues can be readily answered within the community. On the other hand, Microsoft offers effective technical help.

Nachteile

Although the use is flawless, the configuration is not the easiest, however once configured. User management is difficult and time-consuming.

Vorteile

MS Project is great for project planning! It allows you to break the work up into tasks and sub-tasks each with resources, dependencies, start and end dates. Also, it allows you to visualize the critical path.

Nachteile

I think they should provide the general package of the software. Also the cost of license is a bit high for the students to use it. Except for this it is one of the best softwares for Project Management purpose.

Vorteile

I like Microsoft Project because it makes managing projects easy and am able to track my projects at ease and even having to meet my dealings at ease.

There is nothing wrong with Microsoft Project.

Vorteile

The implementation of the Microsoft Project was easy. The solution is very powerful to plan, execute, and track projects. What I love most is the capabilities to include project planning, scheduling, resources management, task tracking, reporting, and collaboration tools.

Nachteile

"The basics are easy to use and understand, but it is amazing how many features and abilities this software has that go beyond basic project management."

Vorteile

When it comes to handling business projects, Microsoft Project offers great features and also makes project collaboration easy too.
Tracking progress as well as managing projects and tasks has been easy too.

Nachteile

No serious malfunctioning while interacting with Microsoft Project

Vorteile

Microsoft has the most robust tools with robust backend integration capability.
I like that it streamlines project portfolio management in real-time.

Nachteile

I slightly dislike that Microsoft Project has outdated features and the vendor lag behind on version control.

Vorteile

It's quite easy to use and very simple to understand.We can now comfortably focus on our projects with this tool it makes everything easy and fun.It has varieties of tools which we definitely all need.Microsoft is much affordable and it gives you the chance to explore and venture into new things.Has this phenomenal features like chats, meetings which brings togetherness and empowers leadership in my team.

Nachteile

I haven't encountered major challenges and I absolutely love it.

Vorteile

It is a great software for group projects. The entire team can work on different aspects of a project including risk management, budget allocation, time allocation and more aspects.

Nachteile

There is a learning curve until you master the software. So it is great for those whose job is working in projects but there will be an onboarding timeframe.

Vorteile

Microsoft Project (in the version that you install on your computer) is a tool that has been around for a long time, and therefore has a number of sophisticated features and menus that many more modern tools don't offer.

Nachteile

At least in theory, MS Project can link several separate projects from different locations. In theory, I did not manage to get this link done, but rather my application crashed. The reason can be that I did something wrong and that other users can make this work, in that case I would say it is not intuitive and has pitfalls.
A MAJOR weakness of MS Project in the online version is that I could not make MS Project display the name of a task in the Gantt chard next to or within the displayed bar. Our project plans consist of a huge number - in some cases more than a hundred - hierarchical tasks where many of them are linked to predecessors so we end up with a complicated plan of a huge number of bars in the Gantt chart that are connected by many arrows. However, without seeing the name of the task next to the bar, the user has to move his eyes to the far left of the monitor to read the text and learn what the bar means. If your eye accidentally skips a row while doing this, you get confused. I believe that because of that (and many other features that are missing compared to the installed version of MS Project) the online version of MS Project - at least for my purposes - is useless.

Vorteile

MS Project est facile à prendre en main même pour des débutants en mangement de projet.

Nachteile

Je n'ai pas trouvé d'inconvénients particulier. Tout se passe bien avec MS Project

Vorteile

Sicuramente il miglirore sul mercato a proposito di pianificazione progettuale

Nachteile

Poche cose risolvibili ma nel complesso nulla da criticare

Vorteile

Microsoft Project's strong and extensive project management features are what I like most about it as the Director of ICT Operations. Offering a wide range of capabilities to help with scheduling, planning, and resource management, Microsoft Project excels at handling complicated projects. We can readily view project timeframes, dependencies, and key paths thanks to its intuitive Gantt chart capability, which is helpful. Efficient monitoring of project progress and prompt detection of possible bottlenecks or delays are made possible by this visual representation.
Its compatibility with other Microsoft programs, like Teams, Excel, and SharePoint, is yet another noteworthy aspect. This smooth connectivity makes it possible to import and export project data with ease, encouraging departmental collaboration and guaranteeing that everyone is aware of every development.

Nachteile

It is less affordable for businesses that do not need all of the complex capabilities it offers due to its price structure, which can be somewhat pricey, especially for the cloud-based version.

Vorteile

1. Comprehensive project management tool with features for planning, scheduling, and tracking.
2. Integration with other Microsoft tools like Excel and SharePoint for seamless collaboration and data exchange.
3. Robust reporting and data visualization capabilities to track project progress and communicate updates.
4. Scalable for projects of various sizes, from small tasks to large-scale initiatives.
5. Extensive customization options to tailor the tool to specific project requirements.

Nachteile

1. Steep learning curve for beginners due to the complexity of the tool's features and interface.
2. Expensive licensing costs, especially for smaller teams or individual users.
3. Limited cloud-based capabilities compared to other project management solutions.
4. Compatibility issues with non-Microsoft software and challenges in data exchange with external stakeholders.
5. Requires regular updates and maintenance to ensure optimal performance.

Vorteile

What I liked most about Microsoft Project is its robust project management capabilities. The software provides an intuitive interface for planning, scheduling, and tracking tasks, which makes it easier to manage even complex projects efficiently. Its Gantt chart visualization is particularly useful for gaining a clear overview of project timelines, task dependencies, and milestones. I also appreciate the ability to collaborate with team members in real time, ensuring that everyone stays on the same page. Additionally, the resource management features help optimize workload distribution and monitor project costs, making it an essential tool for ensuring project success.

Nachteile

What I liked least about Microsoft Project is its steep learning curve, especially for beginners. The interface can be overwhelming, and it takes time to understand the full range of features. Additionally, the software can be expensive, especially for small teams or individuals, and lacks seamless integration with some third-party tools, which can limit overall flexibility.

Vorteile

Hard to say. Honestly it is a tool you are forced to use more than a tool you have pleasure to use. You have to used it when working on highly regulated markets and managing traditional large teams in waterfall projects. It has all the features you need to manage a big project, and I particularly appreciate the possibility of managing sub-projects in the same file.

Nachteile

The reporting features lag behind many other competitors. It is buggy if you try to do complex reports with big gantt files. Also, there is little room for customisation of the gantt bar if you want to build attractive graphics. I would also appreciate if Microsoft could integrate Copilot into MS Project to help with analysis.

Vorteile

Me ha encantado de este programa lo mucho que nos ayuda a realizar una gestión de proyectos eficiente e interactiva, promueve la colaboración en equipo y gráfica las actividades. Este programa es algo que todo gestor de proyectos DEBE tener.

Nachteile

Este programa es excelente en todo, no tengo ninguna queja. Solo seguir motivando a los desarrolladores por el buen trabajo en el mismo.

Vorteile

Ease and functionality as well as integration and use with all my apple products!

Nachteile

Cost is steep but seems to be worth the investment.

Vorteile

how it helps you plan and organize projects effectively. The Gantt charts make it easy to see timelines and deadlines at a glance. It’s great for managing resources, so you can keep track of who’s working on what.

Nachteile

It can be a bit complicated for new users. The interface has a lot of features, which can feel overwhelming if you’re not familiar with project management tools.

Vorteile

Microsoft Project is really convenient to used compared to other programs. It is extremely popular as a project management tool and allows for me to easily share files with others who also use the tool to stay organized.

Nachteile

I would like for the software to be a one time cost instead of an annual subcription which is really costly over time.

Vorteile

Microsoft Project is ubiquitous, and as such extra training is usually not required. The average person is already a user.

Nachteile

As time has gone by, the competition has improved more then Microsoft Project. There is open source SW which is more intuitive and easy to use.

Vorteile

Microsoft Project boost productivity in my organization by automating over 90% of manual task and project procedures.

Nachteile

I have not come across any better choice than Ms Project. It has served me well for over a decade without issues.

Vorteile

Microsoft Project fully integrates with all Microsoft 365 tools and it is super user friendly to use.

Nachteile

Not good if your clients need to collaborate on the tasks progress because it requires your clients to have an MS Project license which most don't have. Also, MS Project auto-calculate realisation time by the amount of days you set for a task which doesn't reflect the real time in hours for the task. Finally, it is an insanely expensive tool, there are far more less expensive project management tools that have the same exact features.

Vorteile

L’aspetto visivo di Project è uno dei suoi punti di forza, con un’interfaccia piacevole e intuitiva che rende semplice la navigazione.
Offre alcune funzionalità essenziali per la gestione dei progetti, come la pianificazione delle attività e la suddivisione delle risorse.
Ha un buon livello di integrazione con altre piattaforme e applicazioni, che è utile per chi lavora su diversi canali.

Nachteile

La piattaforma può risultare lenta, soprattutto quando si gestiscono progetti più complessi. Questo rallentamento impatta negativamente sulla produttività.
Sebbene la piattaforma abbia un buon potenziale, molte funzioni avanzate sono poco sviluppate o non sono presenti.
Le risposte sono spesso lente e non sempre risolutive, creando disagi soprattutto in momenti critici.
In relazione ai servizi che offre, il costo risulta elevato e non giustificato dalle funzionalità presenti.

Vorteile

likes about microsoft project is that it is robust with good flexibility and scalability.
It is very easy to even integrate with out microsoft tools like powe bi,excel etc.
It also offers a good amount of customization too.

Nachteile

One of the cons is that ms project is very expensive compared to its competative product out there in the market.
Even the UI is bit complex and handling large projects become difficult.

Vorteile

Fairly easy to use, especially if you have a good grasp of MS Excel.
It's highly flexible and allows the user to change and tweak a lot of key parameters.

Nachteile

Compared to other scheduling softwares, e.g. P6, it misses out on some key functionalities. A key feature missing is % work planned. It allows user to compare what % of work was planned till date vs how much has been completed.

Vorteile

It allows you to easily track and manage your project with lots of Microsoft software integration options

Nachteile

Microsoft always feels clunky and dated compared to similar software options.

Vorteile

It is easy to use compared to other project planning softwares. It also integrates easily with teams and other used programs.

Nachteile

It is costly, and not everyone can have access to quickly editing or working on a plan. People will default to do work in excel since it is more easily available.
