Cons
"Some of the reports could be automated."

More Digité SwiftKanban Cons →

"The packaging of Microsoft Project Professional is pretty simple as a product. But, the end-to-end enterprise is complex.""Project availability and speed could always be improved.""There are a few bugs that can affect the stability. This is typical of most applications.""The solution could be more flexible when it comes to integration.""It is a traditional Waterfall-based solution, so it doesn't lend itself particularly well to Agile development. You can record Agile sprints within it, but it is not really an Agile-based product. It can store the basic information about budgets that an Agile set of work is looking to use, but that's about it.""I would like to see the inclusion of multi-currency support.""It should be easier to break things. Breaking up the visualization from the task is sometimes a little bit tricky to do. You can do it, but it takes a minute. It's not an easy function to do. The way you have to format it and stuff like that takes a minute.""When you start getting into the more advanced features, it can become unstable. The more you use the advanced features, the more exposure you have to an unanticipated result. I think we need to add the Kanban Board capability to the product that would help them advance that board into the project management methodology that's being used in the industry today. Being able to depend on Scrum management is key."
