### "Still need for enterprise features"

March 28, 2017

3.0

Ressource Management for managing your resources on a time basis, time management could be very improved. Standard Templates for Tasks would be a nice feature too, and in general there is a lot of enterprise features which is not there.

Pros

Nice interface and build upon a good concept.

Cons

The need for enterprise features.

### "It is easy to get the first thing done and I'm happy about the way it is oganized."

May 15, 2017

4.0

Hopefully a better traked workflow over the different projects and a easier comunication to the other projekt partners. Because of the web based interface the possible international incooperating of people on the project.

Pros

The possibility to tag files to issues und to trak the issues over the workflow. The difference between files at tasks and documents is very good to get projects organized.

Cons

The way of handling the timeline is not flexible as it shoud. The connectivity of phases and related issues could be better and more flexible in the way of doing frame timing and not exactly the issue time.

### "There are no excuses to get the control of your project"

September 13, 2018

4.0

I have two computers one with a MS Project license for profesional use and the other one with Open Project. That bring me the oportunity to open MS Project files in both computers with a single license.

Pros

The most is that this software is free, under no licenses nor trial version

Cons

You could miss some perfomance and funtionality in the case your are expertise user of other Project software like MS Project for instance.

### "Still a rookie, but learning fast ...."

March 22, 2017

4.0

Would love to have a "print" or "report" function for management reporting. Haven't found yet how to do budget planning per quarter (actuals for the past, forecasts for the future, estimate-to-complete for the project) so that I can forecast when we expect invoices and cash-outs. On the same note would be able to consolidate on project portfolio level

Pros

Good functionality

Cons

Lacking gantt chart drag and drop Work packages interface cluttered

### "It's free and easy to use (Open Project Community version)"

April 11, 2018

5.0

Pros

Well, first of all it's Open Source and it has a good community. You've got a lot of functionality and control over everything. I like the welcome screen as it has all the necessary links to Help files and the pop-up video is a good addition. Takes a tiny bit of a learning curve to get everything set-up but once it's done it's great.
