"Extra effort for capacity planing"
What do you like best about ProjectManager?

the huge overview of the projects, the workload for each developer, we can see the workload based on hours thats great, we can organize our developer over all projects, the reporting is good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProjectManager?

We have a huge extra effort with the capacity planning. If i set a day in the calender as a holiday or non working day. The tool count and show the hours in the work flow. We do not work on a holiday and we have extra effort to set those hours on 0. We have a lot of Task in a project. If i forget to set the holidays to 0, our capacity planing is wrong. If we do not solve this problem this will be the show stoper for this tool in our project planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"PM is the best one I've tried for the money"
What do you like best about ProjectManager?

The monthly fee is low enough that even a public university can afford to use it, but it is robust enough to help you manage projects across teams in multiple departments as well as external agencies. The format is very customizable for use with widely varied projects from building apps to developing new clinical programs in a hospital. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProjectManager?

Reporting is comprehensive but you can't change the format - you have to clean up the report after you run it to make it look the way you want; that is you can't just ask for the data and then format it the way you want, you have to accept a formatted report and then revise it.

"Simple & User friendly"
What do you like best about ProjectManager?

It is simple. user friendly product and does not require much training to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProjectManager?

There are some of the basic requirements that are missing.

1. Ability to provide different types of access to projects for the users with same role. eg: If there are 5 managers and we would like to provide Manager A with edit access and rest of the managers with view only access to a specific project, it is not possible. It is all access or no access on projects.

2. Ability to track the changes made by other users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Meets our needs, but nothing fancy"
What do you like best about ProjectManager?

The app is extremely easy to use and on-board. Entering projects is a breeze and seeing your projected tasks is simple on the dashboard. You can use deadlines and link tasks to project out. You can also check capacities of people. There is even a time sheet built in to track how long it takes so next year's plans are easier to predict. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProjectManager?

There are only a few features that I dislike. 1. When someone changes the project, you get a notification, but it isn't logged as to what the change was.

2. You can't customize alerts per user; it's per user group.

3. There is nothing fun about it, unlike Asana. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
