Avantages: Good interface in creating project plans and presenting them to leadership teams.
Inconvénients: It would be good if the GANTT Chart and visuals offer more customization ie. different coloring. Otherwise, the software is good.
Project Planning Pro in Film Production

Commentaires: I encountered PPP while doing project management for the one of the many government agencies. I was looking for alternatives to MS Project. Since I stared using it I have since expanded my usage to my blossoming second career in film production. One could use MS Project as well, but I have found the PPP just flowed more seamlessly. We track tasks and dependencies for Development through Post-Production without any issues.
Avantages: The ease of use when I was doing PM work with the government caught my attention. That allowed me to port our previous project planning from spreadsheets to a robust project planning software.
Inconvénients: None that readily come to mind.
Project Planning Pro

Commentaires: Overall I love how this program helps me and my team to stay on track of projects. It has helped us in providing updates to leadership on the spot. Whenever we have been in a meeting and someone questions our timeline on the project we simply pop our Development Plan and guide them through our tasks. Very user friendly.
Avantages: I love the availability of not starting from scratch. I can upload my project time line from Dropbox, email and or GServer. I like knowing how many days I am spending on each project and the "duration" columns in Task Information that allows me to see the total days and be able to compare how long each projected project will take. I also LOVE the fact that I can add resources to each project as well.
Inconvénients: The filled in timeline colors and arrows may seem overwhelming for a new time user but once you are comfortable with the program, you learn to love the arrows.
I found it by searching under project management and it is available on iPhone and Mac.

Commentaires: None yet but I did track purchasing a home with this.
Avantages: The fact that it is visually effective and it is compatible with the iphone and mac is ideal. Ability to have multiple projects is good.
Inconvénients: It could be made more user friendly and losing data is frustrating. I wish it had a backup system. I also wish it was more compatible with other apps including calendar.
I have enjoyed using the program and it has facilitated getting info to all sub trades

Avantages: I like that you can see thru gnat file how it is all fitting together. The ability to add or delete atems as needed. I love that it auto changes everything when you change one date.
Inconvénients: I do not like that i cannot print directly form program itself I always have to send my self and email and that is frustrating. That is does not do an automaiic save is also frustrating
Great for planning on the move

Commentaires: Management of existing projects in a mobile app.
Avantages:
Easy to use, and has decent reporting. After trying most of the free and paid iOS iPad apps for project management, this is by far the easiest to use after coming from a Microsoft Project background. The charts and timelines update automatically and smoothly, but without using up all the iPad's memory (unlike Microsoft apps). The ability to import existing MSP files is crucial, and although there are some new MSP features that don't always import perfectly, this app is way ahead of the other project management iOS apps I've tried.
Well worth learning to use, with plenty of features to fine tune my projects 'on the go'.
Inconvénients: Doesn't always handle all aspects of MSproject files when importing. However it does a much better job than other iOS apps.
This is a great little tool to use when you require a mobile solution.

Avantages: Its Mobile. I can be out onsite with my iPad and be able to enter information as it happens. If a scheduling conflict arises I can update it quickly without forgetting.
Inconvénients: It doesn't easily integrate as an overall desktop and mobile solution. Just for on the go needs. So if I want to work on the iPad the. Go back to working on my desktop it won't live sync.

Hello Jeremy,
Yes it was not possible to sync your projects in realtime until the latest version of Project Planning Pro was released.
Now you can sync projects in realtime with iCloud.
Hope this helps you organise your projects better and save time in making changes on your desktop version.
Happy Planning!
Good program to managing projects

Avantages: Ease of use and the ability for me to share the project with my team. Has been easier than other products at my disposal

Simple & Effective Alternative for MS Project on Mac

Commentaires:
I tried many apps when i switched to Mac from Windows and this had most features which i used on MS Project. It is very easy to use and fulfils most of the features i used.
Pros:
Cheap
Imports Ms Project files, also from dropbox and email
Gantt Charts
Milestones, Critical path
Cons:
UI could be better
Cant change color of the tasks (which they said comes soon. *fingers crossed*)
It lacks some features but the major ones i use are available so i was happy. I contacted support regarding importing a file and they responded quickly (one reason why i am writing this).
Totally recommend it! :)
P.S it's very cheap compared to other apps available in the market.
Great and easy tool to use. Helped me very much during my course

Avantages: It's very user-friendly tool. It was also easy accessible for me to train my team members. Everyone learned very quickly how to use the tools as well as to adapt and streamline processes
Inconvénients: Customer support was a bit timely. If I needed customer support it took longer for me to get a hold of someone .

Commentaires: Great value for the money. I enjoy this program it is very helpful for day-to-day activities. It helps our project stay organized so we are not missing details. I searched for a while for a program to help and I'm so glad that I found it.
Avantages: It's easy to use
One of the best planning apps I've ever used

Commentaires: I downloaded this app to test it (I've been using other software - omniplan 3 ) and I really loved it! It's way simpler than other apps such as omniplan and the ms project. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is that it does not works on windows and that can be an issue when your client does not have macs, so sharing the files to them is not easy... they have to see it in their iPhone/iPad... anyway, do not hesitate in download it and play with it... is simple, effective and above all, user friendly!
Great program!

Commentaires: Easy to use...the only problem I had was the fact I am not an avid user of project management software. I was familiar with Project Manager with Microsoft. This program closely simulates it. It is easier to use than the project manager templates offered on Word by Microsoft. I would have loved the opportunity to use it until project was completed. That was my only problem.
Vast potential, complicated user interface.

Commentaires: Finding the strengths and weaknesses of everybody in the company.
Avantages: The specificity of defining constants and roles to each individual in an organizational project. As well as clocking in and out and being similar to a mindmap but it's for mapping out each individual's roles.
Inconvénients: It takes time to learn and fully operate. It's expensive, and finally there aren't training videos on the application in its UI at least.
Great product for my architectural practice

Commentaires: I have been using this software to program and keep track of design/build projects at my studio and I can comment that it has been a breeze to learn and adapt to it. I am not likely to go deep into tutorials and manuals and this software is so intuitive and adaptive that I have been able to incorporate it into daily use without any stress.

Avantages: Being able to do a project timline to show the customer
Inconvénients: As project progressed remembering to update as i completed tasks
Inexpensive and does many things

Commentaires: Since switching to MAC i have missed my MSProject. This program does a lot of project functions at a fraction of the price. Wish the prints had more options. I have never had a need to contact product support.
Avantages: Inexpensive
Inconvénients: Limited printing options
Great for Scheduling and task ordering.

Commentaires: This is a great app to help with Project Planning especially scheduling.
Avantages: This app is great for scheduling. It has the finish-to-start (FS), start-to-start (SS), finish-to-finish (FF) and start-to-finish (SF) which is very useful. I also like the task ordering feature.
Inconvénients: The app does not directly address risk management. This would be a helpful addition to the Project Management Software.
