Excellent software for small-team project management
What do you like best? I like the versatility of the interface, the ability to link start of one task/project behind the completion of another task/project. Also, the ability to link with JIRA (via plugin and link to & automatically. What do you dislike?

Great tool for managing large scale projects
What do you like best? Microsoft Project has been a standard for tracking projects of various sizes. The dependency chaining works quite well and helps visualize resource and task scheduling. Good for milestone tracking at a high level, while also designating resources to specific tasks. Fits well if you use a waterfall model. What do you dislike? With agile development taking more of a front seat, MS Project doesn't really lend itself to this type of model. You could easily use Excel ...

Honestly, this is the best tool, EVER! Im not kidding. It's very helpful and easy to use.
What do you like best? It was very easy to manage the different tabs. What do you dislike? It would've been better if there were more functions like MS Excel. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Ok but somewhat buggy
What do you like best? I loved the ability to get organized with my team mates based on projects and having one sure place that we can share items in one spot! What do you dislike? It is buggy and difficult to use at times. It does not lend its self to ease of use. Recommendations to others considering the product There are honestly better programs out there have more things in one place. Its a good start but not as robust as a bigger company would need. What business problems ...
