We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I find the planning features the most valuable to me.""We use Microsoft Project for its timeline and task management capabilities. The primary advantage is the easy application of tasks in sequence, confirming dependencies, and establishing relationships between tasks. It simplifies handling conditions, significant dates, and dependencies between various tasks.""It is easy to use and pretty intuitive. User interfaces have stayed the same for the most part for the last 20 years. So, there is a familiarity.""The ability to break down project phases is most valuable. Being able to align the tasks and reporting with project milestones and progress is also valuable.""It is a complete and all-rounded enterprise product. From a portfolio management perspective and an individual project management perspective, it is a corporate-wide project management product. It can be used for resource planning, financial planning, task planning, etc.""I use Microsoft Project to manage project timelines.""I have found that the chart reporting feature is very helpful for us currently.""The most valuable feature is probably the Kanban diagram. People are familiar with the Kanban tools. When they do their scrum meetings, they have that Kanban board where you can see the different tiles for all the queries and move them from left to right. IT is familiar with that because, for development, most of the tools have that capability. It could also be more graphical, like Asana."

"It is a very stable solution...The initial setup of Teamwork is easy.""Teamwork has made process management easier and much better. It is very robust and improves by making a lot of changes. It is easy to use and has lots of reports.""The setup was very easy. Deployment was very fast for us. We started using it within two weeks."

Cons
"Project availability and speed could always be improved.""The solution is currently a bit slow and can be faster.""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.""Once we commit our status, changing it is hard.""Microsoft Project could improve the interface, it should be more intuitive. It could be adjusted a little bit to make it a little easier to use and more user-friendly. It is a very powerful tool and it takes people a while to get used to it.""Microsoft Project has much room for improvement. The solution is still stuck where it was in 2013. Not much has changed since then. There is a lot that can be changed in the enterprise segment.""It would be ideal if the solution integrated more with Azure DevOps and other work management platforms like Jira.""It would be better if there were more access to Agile implementations."

More Microsoft Project Cons →

"The screen sharing provided by the solution can be a challenge to a user. Screen sharing is an area that needs improvement in the solution.""The product could be improved with more integrations and a mobile app.""The product is expensive. It needs to have a more robust and customizable calendar."
