Efficient project management with robust data tracking and an easy setup

The timeline is integrated seamlessly, but it lacks the ease of use and scalability of a cloud-based tool

Pros

"Microsoft Project's integrated timeline is tied to the project plan almost seamlessly, and you add whatever action item or milestone you choose. All you have to do is set up a column and click on the timeline. It will automatically put it in there and allow you to choose the type, whether it's a bar or if it's a milestone, just pointing out that single milestone"

Cons

"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. "

Easy to use and great for project planning and monitoring

Supports integration with Jira and Grafana but needs improvement in integrations and automation

Pros

"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. "

Cons

"The tool's deployment is complex. Integration and automation also need to be improved. "
