Microsoft Project Reviews

I use the product for Excel and other processes. 

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

I have been using the product for ten years. 

We're exploring various options to improve stability. Currently, it's a bit tricky, but we're working on making it more stable.

We're making every effort to enhance scalability according to our business requirements. My company has 5000 users for Microsoft Project. 

Our deployment process follows standard procedures, often dictated by project requirements. We allocate two personnel for installation and project requirements. Currently, we have nine to ten projects.

We use Microsoft Teams for business communication and file sharing. We've also integrated Microsoft Teams with Grafana for on-call support and Jira. In our project work, we utilize Jira, while for resource management, we rely on Salesforce. I rate the overall solution a seven out of ten.

Occasionally, we have encountered issues that would require us to restart the solution. I recommend getting familiar with the documentation and thoroughly testing the product. Additionally, it's essential to connect with different stakeholders to address any issues.

Our company uses the solution for a project at our on-premises data center. We have one data room database and one mobile active account. 

We have 100 users in our head office who use Microsoft in our database and desktop application. A total of 5,000 employees use their mobile phones while working in the field. 

We will soon launch another project in the cloud. 

The solution is well established and runs very accurately. 

The solution is very user friendly so end users are satisfied. 

Project availability and speed could always be improved. Most of the time, we get the target from the system. 

If there is a chance to improve the interface, then it should be implemented. Otherwise, our end users are satisfied with using our own interface. 

Reports could be pushed more quickly. 

I have been using the solution for ten years. 

The solution is stable. 

The solution is scalable. 

We have an internal IT department that handles all support or technical issues. We are experts in our project tools so we smoothly solve all problems. 

We did not previously use another solution. 

We implemented the solution in-house. 

The solution is less expensive than other options. 

I recommend the solution and rate it a ten out of ten. 

We use Microsoft Project for any project executions, like assigning the resource, listing out the task, and following up on the timeline. Microsoft Project is used to track the project delivery and the project management.

It would be better if the solution is integrated with other communication platforms like Microsoft Teams. Microsoft Project has a separate license from Microsoft 365 and has not collaborated with Microsoft Teams.

I have been using Microsoft Project for five to six years.

Microsoft Project is a stable solution.

Around 30 users are using the solution in our organization.

The solution’s initial setup is straightforward.

We implemented the solution through an in-house team in one month.

We have seen a return on investment with Microsoft Project because it allows us to track and execute the project successfully without much delay. Since projects are executed on time, it's always beneficial to our business.

The solution has a decent annual license subscription cost, which is not high.

I would recommend Microsoft Project to other users. As an end user, Microsoft Project provides many features like tracking the team task, checking whether the task has been completed on time or there is any delay, tracking each task, and resource allocation.

Overall, I rate Microsoft Project an eight out of ten.

We are doing e-commerce implementations and we organize the projects and Gantt charts for this task.

It's great for project planning and monitoring.

It's very easy to use. It's plug-and-play. 

The solution is stable.

It can scale well.

The UI is great. If you work with Microsoft, it's very easy to work with this.

It can be hard to create things manually, however, once we have it up and running it's very easy.

We'd like to have more resource allocation and monitoring features. This should be part of MS Project. 

We've been using the solution for almost a year. 

The stability is good. I'd rate it 8.5 to nine out of ten. It is reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. 

The solution is scalable. We just give the order to the reseller and they activate more licenses.

We have 60 to 70 users. We do have plans to increase to 200 licenses. 

We have a reseller partner that offers technical support for any tickets logged. 

The setup is based on the business requirements. It's not too difficult. 

The deployment takes four to six weeks.

We activated the license and then, to use MS Project, we have to create a whole project plan, and that requires manual data entry. Then, once we have that, everything moves quickly.

We do not need any technical people to maintain the product. It's very user-friendly and maintenance is very minimal. 

This is a cost-0effective project planner. I'm getting a product at $100 as opposed to Oracle, which would cost me thousands of dollars. I'd rate it nine out of ten. 

We pay annually. You can also pay monthly if you would like.

There are no extra costs in addition to the standard licensing fees. You would have to pay if you were using other Microsoft products, like Microsoft Teams. 

We did evaluate OIracle and found the price to be too high. The implementation timeline was also very long. 

We're using the cloud-based solution so were are always on the latest version. 

This is a Microsoft product and therefore it is very user-friendly. We use a lot of Microsoft products and find it very simple to get used to the UI since we use so much Microsoft in general. 

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. 

Our company uses the solution for project management. We monitor work progress or activities to ensure they are completed. We get a full view of start dates, end dates, and all dependencies required for actions. 

We store many things on Teams. We can make objections or put things in SharePoint. 

Nine team members in our department use the solution. Previously, we used only on-premises but now we are using both on-premises and the cloud service.

The solution is tightly integrated with other Microsoft products such as SharePoint and Power Automate and also integrates with Google.

It is easy to check project costs in the solution. 

Notifications provide alerts of new outages so you can move your project as needed.

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

Ongoing education would motivate users to learn and take advantage of the solution's many features. 

The price could be more flexible. 

I have been using the solution for three years. 

The solution is stable so I rate stability a nine out of ten. 

The solution is scalable. 

If you are familiar with Microsoft tools, then it is easy to understand the scalability. If you are a new user, then scaling may be difficult because you have to spend some time understanding Microsoft chronologies first to scale the solution. 

I have not used technical support. 

When we started working with the solution, the setup was somewhat difficult. Once you gain knowledge, you slowly see that the solution is easy to use. 

We implemented the solution in-house. 

The licensing model is somewhat complex. Initially, the price is low but scales up because you pay for consumption and usage. 

Pricing is okay if you have one or two users. If you add everyone in your company as project managers, then the price is high. 

The solution is better than Jira. 

I rate the solution an eight out of ten. 

We use Microsoft Project to capture customer requests, explore details like function and performance, and consider operational and maintenance aspects. Then we mix this with the budget and the customer's mission.

Using Microsoft Project benefits our company by providing necessary insights such as SKU and manpower requirements, estimated project costs, and critical paths. It helps identify critical tools and events of communication, aiding in problem-solving and avoiding threats to project success.

Microsoft Project offers comprehensive project overviews and the ability to rate down what we have and what we need in terms of software.

I would like Microsoft Project to better align with our business needs, with improved consultant support for setup and integration features that show all relevant aspects at the top level.

I have been using Microsoft Project for ten years.

Microsoft Project has always been stable for us.

Microsoft Project is scalable enough for our needs.

I would rate the technical support as a seven out of ten.

Neutral

Setting up Microsoft Project in our company was relatively straightforward, taking a short amount of time.

We integrate Microsoft Project into our project management processes to handle both technical and business aspects.

Integrating Microsoft Project has been challenging, particularly regarding harmonization across departments. While integration is beneficial, achieving harmonization is essential for seamless collaboration.

Microsoft Project's reporting function helps decision-making by offering clear insights.

My advice is to use Microsoft Project along with other tools for capturing detailed requirements, not just focusing on function but also considering performance, operations, maintenance, and certification. This ensures project success and timely completion.

Overall, I would rate Microsoft Project as a six out of ten.

Our company uses Microsoft Project for planning processes in big projects like building offices or developing software products.

Time tracking and budget tracking are the most valuable features of the solution.

The solution's interface seems to be an outdated one. So, I would like its interface to be improved.

Since everything I need is already present in the solution, I don't require any additional features to be added to the solution.

Personally, I have experience with Microsoft Project for seven years. Though I don't know exactly, I believe that my company has been using the solution for about five years. So, my company is a customer of the solution.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten. So, around ten people in my company are using the solution. It is used by a few of our project departments and some project managers like myself from another department.

I haven't contacted the technical support team, but we have employees from our help desk team who have contacted the solution's technical support team for some issues. So, I think it's okay.

When using the solution on my personal computer, I just installed it and began to use it. And at my company, I just told our help desk to install the solution remotely on my office computer.

Pricing-wise, I rate the solution a seven out of ten since I feel it is a bit costly.

I would recommend those planning to use the solution to learn to use it from somewhere since, for beginners, it may seem like a complicated solution to use.

I would absolutely recommend Microsoft Project to those planning to use it. Though the solution serves my purpose, it is a bit costly. So, I rate the overall solution a nine out of ten.

Microsoft Project can be used for a variety of purposes, one of which is creating a Gantt diagram. This feature is particularly useful for projects that require establishing a timeline and determining the duration of each task. Additionally, Microsoft Project can be integrated with cloud solutions, such as Teams and Insight, making it a valuable tool for collaborative projects. By integrating with Teams, you can share tasks with team members and collaborate more efficiently. Integrating with Insight allows you to gather data and insights about your project, enabling you to make informed decisions and improve your project management process.

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.

In a future update, the system should be more inclusive and open to everyone, not just limited to one organization. For example, there may be instances where we want to bring in a guest from outside our organization and integrate them into our project. It would be beneficial if the system was more accessible and easy to integrate with other projects. Additionally, it would be great if there was a way to receive notifications, regardless of whether they come from a Gmail domain or another domain, to keep us informed of any incoming tasks.

I have been using Microsoft Project for approximately a few months.

In my organization, the stability of the solution has been good.

The scalability of Microsoft Project is good.

I did not use the support.

I used previously Microsoft Visio.

I used Microsoft Visio to build network architecture and especially for drawing a structure.

In the setup of Microsoft Project, the process was a bit challenging initially. The main reason was that I was not sure where to start in a safe and secure manner. Microsoft frequently updates its software and resources, but it can be difficult to find the necessary documentation for a specific solution. It is crucial to have some prior experience with similar products to effectively locate the necessary information. For someone who is just starting out and does not have the proper training, guidance from an instructor, or hands-on experience, the setup process can be quite complex.

The implementation of the solution was swift and effortless. The amount of time it took to deploy would largely depend on the specificities of your project and what features are required or optional. From my personal experience, creating the project was simple and straightforward, and did not require a significant amount of time. The deployment process was smooth and efficient.

I have received a return on investment using the solution.

The license fees for the professional version, which is estimated to be approximately $1,600, and the standard version, which is approximately $1,200, may be considered expensive by some users. This is something that could be improved to make the platform more accessible to a wider audience.

You can purchase other solutions from Microsoft and receive this solution in the package, such as Visual Studio, it offers numerous benefits, including access to a variety of Microsoft solutions, including Project, Visio, Office 2021, and more. This makes it easier for me to access everything I need.

I highly recommend the solution due to its ability to enhance organization and improve task management within projects. It is possible to stay informed and up-to-date with any delays or discrepancies in the work being done. The solution is immensely valuable. I wholeheartedly endorse this process.

I rate Microsoft Project a seven out of ten.
