"Effortless Planning with Seamless Stakeholder Collaboration"
What do you like best about ProjectManager?

I appreciate ProjectManager for its effortless planning and smart execution, allowing me to manage projects smoothly from start to finish. I enjoyed the comprehensive overview it provides for tasks and the entire lifecycle of each project, simplifying complex processes. This tool excels in facilitating collaboration with stakeholders and other departments, significantly enhancing project execution through effective communication and coordination. The dashboard is particularly valuable, keeping everything on task at each step and ensuring that no detail is overlooked, which makes it much easier to monitor progress and stay organized. ProjectManager’s strengths make it an indispensable tool in project management, deserving a high recommendation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Not the best in the area"
What do you like best about ProjectManager?

ProjectManager offers a user-friendly interface with flexible project views—Gantt charts, task lists, kanban boards, and calendars—all in one place. Its real-time updates and collaboration tools make it easier to manage distributed teams and track progress effectively. The time-tracking and resource management features are also solid, helping with workload balancing and deadline control. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProjectManager?

While the platform is powerful, it can feel a bit overwhelming at first due to the number of features. The mobile app lacks some of the functionality found on the desktop version, which can be limiting for users on the go. Additionally, reporting features—while customizable—could benefit from more templates and visual options. Integration with other tools is decent but not as seamless as with competitors like Asana or Monday.com. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One of the my go to tool is ProjectManager when i comes to managing a project"
What do you like best about ProjectManager?

The feature that I like about the ProjectManager tool is are user-friendly interface, collaboration, range of processes for planning, tracking and managing end-to-end project management from initiation to delivery.

Also, to mention, I can use it on a mobile phone, and it gives a free trial to new signups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProjectManager?

I would say:

1. Steep learning phase - some might find it difficult to navigate as it has extensive features.

2. Limited customisation in certain areas, like notification settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A truely useful tool"
What do you like best about ProjectManager?

The functions offered are well thought out and do not require extensive customization. The help desk is staffed by knowledgable people who know how to communicate.

The sales staff are knowledgable and honest so we did not experience a disconnect between what we thought we signed up for and what we experienced. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProjectManager?

I honestly have no criticism or have experienced any shortfall for waht we need from a project management software.

the only problem we are experiencing is a slow update and find we have to keep refreshing the screen. This may be because of the number of sub-tasks we have and is something we will discuss with the Help Desk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great interface making the software easy to use"
What do you like best about ProjectManager?

The user interface is simple to use and easy to communicate to others. It has a great team environment to get adherance to the usual project management activities. It has a dashboard and report that can be easily used so can be powerful for managing projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProjectManager?

At the moment we have a number of projects that interact with each other but we cannot link them together unless we have them in a large plan, however we would like to keep them separate for simplicity otherwise have thosands of lines. Also, it would be good to have a feature which if you press updates the entire plan making sure all links between tasks are updated - if anything is in the past it will then shift the entire plan to the right - similar to data date in P6. It would also be good to have a an area to see total hours in the plan - I have a workaround for this but great if i could find it somewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
