Why we like it
A smart solution for businesses both large and small, Microsoft Project makes planning and implementing projects very easy. Complex projects can be managed using a variety of tools to meet each user’s needs. For instance, we found project scheduling tools, with dynamic features for assigning tasks and tracking project duration. We also found the interactive dashboards to be an excellent feature for managers looking to view overall status and figure out issues using Power BI visualization.
Microsoft Project’s pricing starts at $10/month, but businesses can opt for a private plan as well. Built on Azure, businesses and freelancers can create automated workflows with flexible platforms. All of this is very secure and allows for improved collaboration across teams. With file sharing, chat, and meeting capabilities, Microsoft Project has proven itself adept at streamlining businesses, particularly those where teams are spread around the globe and not always in the same time zone.
