★★★★★ Paid for itself in the first month
Real critical-path Gantt charts. We switched from spreadsheets and the team picked it up quickly.
Liked: Resource planning across projects Disliked: No kanban view
★★★★☆ Solid, with a couple of gaps
Does the core job well. Strong permissions. The main thing I'd change: dated interface.
Liked: Strong permissions Disliked: Dated interface
★★★☆☆ Good, but check pricing first
It works, but no mobile app, which surprised us at renewal.
