Extremely helpful every single day.

What do you like best? The program allows me to organize a schedule in a matter of minutes or hours. The shortcuts are extremely helpful when it comes saving time. What do you dislike? I think the program can become confusing when it comes to being able to organize each column and row. I believe the chart can be a little difficult to understand unless you are the one who organized it. Recommendations to others considering the product It can save you a lot of time in the ...

Great Program - Just Difficult to Learn

What do you like best? I like that the program really helps you stay organized. Working on a multi-million dollar project can be overwhelming but having the project software allows me to collapse only the items I need to work on in the immediate future. It also allows me to see how delayed the project I am working on is as a whole. What do you dislike? It is difficult to navigate and you have to have a lot of prior knowledge to be able to work with it. What business problems are you ...

I love the visualization of this program to be able to schedule out a project and then be able to see each task and how they relate to each other as well as see what the timeline is for a project. What do you dislike? I dislike how difficult it is to set up the predecessors and how tasks relate to each other. I have had quite a few issues trying to schedule out a project and keeping dates in line with what actually needs to be done. Recommendations to others ...

Great for multitasking mulitple platforms

What do you like best? We have to balance multiple platforms that range greatly in size and range form constituent services, press, government, legislation etc. This platform allows us to have a program that organizes all of our projects in one place while saving us time in allowing us to use various pre-made templates which we use often. What do you dislike? The task boards are really useful but it would be nice to have an alert system for upcoming deadlines. Recommendations to ...
