Easy to use, intuitive, nice interface
Pros
While there didn't seem to be a way to cancel the free trial from the platform interface itself even going to your account and it can be difficult to reach someone by phone, the service team was extremely helpful in getting my bill sorted out and money refunded that was charged for 12-months of the service.
Cons
Having to set weekends as working days prior to building a Gantt chart and no way to go back and do it later.

It does allow for more detailed project management. you can't expect it to do all of what MS Project does - it is not at that level.
Pros
I like the ability to create a fairly detailed project plan including budget and dates that are nicely mapped out in a Gantt chart. It works great for straightforward projects with a succinct task list and allows for the team to track their time to see a report on the budget for the project and the financial aspect of completing the project.
Cons
This product isn't great to manage really long projects or challenging projects with lots of iterations.

Detailed project planning and studio capacity management
Pros
You can set the working days of a person and the number of hours each person works, which helps accurately plan capacity.
Cons
There are a couple of features I'd like to see incorporated, such as a different colour in the workload view for potential projects, and on the calendar RSS feed the project name needs to be included as well as the task name, otherwise all your tasks can come across with the same name (i.e. design, design, design,).

Pros
The ability to track projects is useful in itself

With many projects and tasks it can be a nuisance to input dozens of time increments into the Timesheet, I would like to see a calendar that allows the user to visually capture time similar to Google Calendar.

Pros
It's an easy way to share information and track tasks.

Hello Angela,
Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate the gracious remarks.
We're so sorry to hear as well about the trouble with saving your data. We as a best practice recommend to use the save button often. We also have an Auto-Save feature that will save changes every 5 minutes in case you accidentally close your browser page or lose internet connection. Hopefully these will help!
Being able to create reports with % complete.
Pros
(I would like to be able to "lock" the planned start-finish dates though, so team members can't adjust their own task planned dates)
Cons
The notification system not giving me an option to be notified whenever ANYTHING changes - I want to know right away when a task is completed by team members if I'm not assigned to the task.

Hi Sharree,
We appreciate your feedback and will look to implement some of the features you mentioned you would have liked!
Among the many advantages with which ProjectManage has our organization has allowed: Manage the workload of the team more efficiently can solve the difficulties at the time they arise, manage multiple projects without major inconvenience and even achieve coordination between several simultaneous teams promoting healthy competition, Produce and send reports in real time to strengthen the proposed goals from the general management of projects.
Pros
On the other hand, the various teams that are formed to develop the projects can be created their lists of personal tasks, even if you have assigned several tasks at once and this will show the progress that each of the assignments that they have.
Cons
Like any program that manages the project, this is a complex system of monitoring resources, managing time and the activities carried out by our company's staff, so the complicated task is to automate the weekly tasks so that we can follow up with a margin of time. optimal and for that a team of developers is required that is very familiar with ProjectManager, also in a totally online program that depends on the internet service that you have since if there is instability in the service the online supervision as well as the sending of multiple documents of interest is affected by this situation.

Automated organization and task delegation for complex projects with many individual tasks.
Pros
Automatic Assignment of tasks and alerts and due dates helps immensely in keeping complex tasks organized and on-schedule.
Cons
Written helps are not very helpful - they describe the features but not how to use them. Tutorials that I have seen are mostly about general PM concepts- not how the software specifically helps. Tutorials that show how to use each specific part of PM.com would be great.
