GanttPRO vs Project Monitor: Which is a better fit?

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.
