Teamwork.com vs GanttPRO: Which is a better fit?

Blake: Hi, I'm Blake. I work as a program manager. We have about 56 people that work for our company. And I would rate Teamwork at a three out of five. Prior to Teamwork, we chose to go with Trello. We had it for a while. And it was a great program, but it didn't really have as many features as we needed as we were experiencing growth. We chose Teamwork because of the robust amount of features that it had. It offered a lot of different views for projects, and the task management tools were really good for it. We really also enjoyed the reporting structure that came along with it, as well as the financial side of it when it comes to projects management. We also really enjoyed the fact that de-collaboration was easy for Teamwork. Getting started with Teamwork wasn't very difficult at times, but we did have an issue with massive amounts of people trying to [inaudible 00:00:52] at one time. It was a little confusing. It was a little bit bogged down. The program was very large, so it seemed over stifled. Teamwork was a little bit messy for us. It was a struggle for our onboarding team to work with them as their supports team was a really great. They didn't get back with us in time on a lot of things, so we missed out on a lot of opportunities with them. We also had issues with the bugs with the system. There were a lot of technical issues that came along with Teamwork. The Gantt chart, which is what we primarily use for our project management, was terrible when it came to bugs, and it unfortunately made our projects late and our tasks off queue. And the collaboration was good, but the collaboration was buggy, so it was also a little bit lax and lagging behind, which caused us to eventually decide to go against Teamwork and move towards ClickUp. Which we have actually been using now for over three years, and we really ClickUp. It is definitely a program that's customizable and it's also very neat to interface. I would definitely recommend not using Teamwork if you are planning on growing or if you're in the process of a lot growth. Teamwork is definitely made for enterprise clients.

Juan P.: Hi, my name is Juan. I'm onboarding specialist at Spoonie. They were a small, medium-sized company from Canada. I grade GanttPRO with a four. So my recent change from [inaudible 00:00:15] to GanttPRO was mainly the option to integrate the Gantt charts with Jira and as well as a cost-effectiveness thing. So that was one of the main reasons to change to GanttPRO. We were actually looking for not a super pro platform that makes sense with a budget. We wanted to sign to it as it was going to be used for a few members of the team and one of the main things that we were looking for, it's the Jira integration to make sense with our other platforms we use in jobs. So Jira integration and portfolio views were kind of the top two things that attracted us to GanttPRO and make the decision. As well, it was making sense in the cost-effectiveness side of things. So I would say those were the three main reasons, cost, Jira integration and portfolio views. So being onboarded with GanttPRO was actually very easy. First, I booked a call with a specialist. I got a longer view of the platform. After that, just after making the payment, setting up things, importing projects from Jira was actually very easy. It's a very intuitive platform, I would say, as majorly all of the Gantt chart management tools or [inaudible 00:02:08] management tools. But yeah, it is actually a pretty easy experience. Two, three hours maybe to set up everything and then replicating projects within it. It's kind of a very fast feature. So yeah, I would say it was easy to set up experience overall. In terms of the advice to people looking to make the decision whether they go or not with GanttPRO would be, first of all, look at the alternatives. Watch if it makes sense, if the integrations they manage with other platforms are the right ones [inaudible 00:02:55] and whether the platform, it's going to be used by many users or just a few users from a company. I would say if integrations make sense for you and the cost as well makes sense for you, then I would say those are the main things, at least in my experience, that were key to make the decision after looking for the overall tools or other five to six options that are relatively close to GanttPRO's price and features.
