Microsoft Project Server Reviews

We use Microsoft Project Server for project management. We have a lot of internal projects running, and we assign licenses to any project manager driving a project.

Microsoft Project Server's user interface is pretty average, and sometimes it can have bugs.

I have been using Microsoft Project Server for two years.

Microsoft Project Server is a stable solution.

Microsoft Project Server is a scalable solution. Around 50 users are using the solution in our organization.

I rate Microsoft Project Server an eight out of ten for scalability.

We previously used a different solution called Clarity. We switched to Microsoft Project Server because Clarity was an expensive solution.

Since it's a cloud-based application, Microsoft Project Server can be easily configured.

Microsoft Project Server is relatively cheaper than other products. We have to pay a yearly licensing fee for Microsoft Project Server. The solution's pricing is reasonable.

We are using the latest version of Microsoft Project Server. I would recommend Microsoft Project Server to other users. Microsoft Project Server gives you value for money.

Overall, I rate Microsoft Project Server a seven out of ten.

We are using the solution for our security and infrastructure projects.

The product is user-friendly.

The price of the product must be improved.

I have been using the solution for three years.

I rate the tool’s stability a seven out of ten.

The tool has a high scalability. I rate the scalability an eight out of ten. Around ten people, including project managers, portfolio managers, and engineers, use the tool in our organization. We use the solution once a month.

I rate the ease of setup an eight out of ten. The deployment took us months.

We deployed the product with the help of a reseller.

I rate the pricing a seven out of ten. It is a bit costly.

Overall, I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

I primarily use the solution for plans and projects. I use it to handle timelines and scheduling. It's primarily used for project implementation. We use it to improve and keep track of project status.

The user interface is okay. It's fine to navigate for a layperson.

As an end-user, I haven't gotten too technical with it.

It is stable.

The solution can scale. 

I don't have any specific notes for improvement. I do not require any more functionality.

I've had some issues with Project Server from time to time. It is not updated in real-time. Sometimes it, therefore, is not accurate.

Technical support could be more efficient. 

I've been using the solution for two years. 

The solution is okay. It has some issues with lagging. I'd rate the general stability eight or nine out of ten.

The scalability is good. I'd rate it nine out of ten. It extends well. 

At my previous company, many people used the solution, including managers and coordinators. 

Technical support often asks the same questions over and over. We'll get referred to a new person, and they will ask the same questions, which can be frustrating.

While problems do get solved, sometimes the response time is slow, and the process is repetitive. 

The initial setup of the solution was something I did not take part in.

The pricing is affordable. It's not overly expensive. 

I've only used Project Server and have not compared it to others.

I did work for a Microsoft gold partner.

I keep the solution up to date. I recently updated it in February.

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten. 

When it comes to enterprise projects, we need a consolidated environment where we can interlink all project management activities, including the cost, resources, timeline, and the whole landscape of project management and portfolio management. We needed enterprise resource planning, and we implemented this for the organization.

It helps us integrate the projects. We can handle cost analysis, resource analysis, task analysis, and all the basic factors that should be covered and are important for any project.

Resource management and cost management are very critical features for us.

It can scale well.

Technical support is helpful.  

The solution needs to be much more stable. 

The project support is missing. We tend to use Primavera as opposed to MS Project when we are doing engineering or large-scale projects. 

I've used the solution for six years or so. 

It isn't stable enough. This is something Microsoft needs to work on. 

The solution is quite scalable. It extends well. 

Technical support has been very good. We are pleased with their level of support.

We have used Primavera in place of Microsoft Project on a few projects. 

It is not too complex to set up. It is actually pretty straightforward. 

We have noted an ROI while using the solution. 

The pricing is moderate. Something like Primavera is more expensive. 

I am not using the latest version. I'm on the 2017 version. 

If you have a Microsoft environment and aren't working on too complex a project, it is quite good and a solution.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. 

I am using Microsoft Project Server for managing projects, such as all the tasks-related activities are tracked.

When a project is complicated this solution monitors every task allowing us to have better control of the projects.

The most valuable feature of the Microsoft Project Server is the level of detail with which I can break down a task and check the dependencies.

The solution could improve the ease of access could improve. It can be time-consuming.

I have been using Microsoft Project Server for approximately one year.

I rate Microsoft Project Server a seven out of ten.

The most useful feature of Microsoft Project Server is you can select a function to see the baseline.

The price of the solution could be reduced.

I have been using Microsoft Project Server for approximately 15 years.

We have approximately 100 to 500 users using Microsoft Project Server.

The support we have received is good.

Microsoft Project Server is more expensive than other solutions on the market. We purchase the license annually.

I rate Microsoft Project Server a ten out of ten.

We are basically using it for project monitoring, scheduling, and resource utilization. We have some custom reports, in which we have used SQL server reporting services.

Before, we were doing project management and project management activities. However, it was siloed. This provides an enterprise version and a centralized environment. Everybody, every project manager, is contributing. We are getting clear visibility of the projects we are running.

We like the project scheduling and collaboration, as well as the rule optimization.

It's stable and reliable.

We are on the on-prem version. The cloud, however, gives more regular updates that we can take advantage of. On-premises needs more regular updates. 

The Project Server reporting is not very powerful unless you have another tool or other thing integrated with it.

Collaboration potential can be increased. 

It's very expensive to scale out.

We've been using the solution for four years. 

The solution is stable. It's reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. 

The solution isn't highly scalable. We do not have plans to scale due to the high cost.

We have 30 to 40 people using the product. It's a mix of project managers and some management or reporting. We also have some general team members.

Support is available. It's a very popular kind of solution so you can get help easily.

Neutral

I may have used a different solution, however, I cannot recall which solution. We're a new department. We didn't switch from something per se. 

It's not straightforward to set up - unless the person knows it. Then they can set it up with ease.

The deployment took about one week.

You only need about two to three people to maintain the solution, however, they do not have to be fully committed. It's only a few hours a week. 

Our team handled the deployment with some IT involvement. 

A different department handled the licensing. I can't speak to exact costs. 

There is expense in the case of maintenance. If you need some person to maintain it, since it's an on-prem solution, that's a cost. You can't measure it, however, it's a cost. It's also expensive to scale. 

I'm a customer.

If you don't want to go to the cloud, this is a good solution. 

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten. 

We use this solution for project management for the whole company different teams in different locations.

The most valuable features are the gantt charts. It's easy to use for me. 

Project Server could be improved by simplifying how tasks are assigned and reviewed on a daily basis. This solutions integrations could be made more user friendly.

The reporting and visualizations could also be improved. 

I have been using this solution for five years. 

This solution is stable.

I don't think it's very scalable. It's not that easy to navigate or scale up and down according to your needs. It has some limitations.

The initial setup was difficult, especially when it comes to resource assignments. We had issues because we have a lot of other software. 

If one is complex and five is straightforward, but I would rate the initial setup a two out of five.

It was done by in-house.

Microsoft Project Server is more suitable to small, medium size businesses instead of enterprises. I would advise others to work with a project management consultant as it is not that easy to integrate within a company.

I would rate this solution a five out of ten.
