"We found it very simple and intuitive to use...The initial setup is straightforward."
"It is a scalable solution. I would rate it a ten out of ten."
"I am currently exploring ClickUp AI, which I think is very good."

"It gives reminders for important project dates and when a particular task is about to close."
"If you work with Microsoft, it's very easy to work with this."
"The solution is well established and runs very accurately."
"The tool has a simple and excellent approach."
"The solution is very useful for project planning."
"I find all the features of the solution valuable."
"Dependencies (not typically effectively used in "Agile" techniques) allow understanding of actual project status and challenges."
"The most valuable features of Microsoft Project are you can create critical paths pretty easily, and you can import from an Excel spreadsheet to your task list as you create it during your working sessions with your team."
"I have found that the chart reporting feature is very helpful for us currently."
"The cloud-based solution can get bugs in it occasionally, causing latency and loading issues."

"The tool is not user-friendly."

"ClickUp could improve by streamlining its functions and organizing them better for easier access."
"We'd like the solution to have better integration with other third-party and open-source solutions."
"Project is not easy to scale. It isn't a cloud-based solution where everybody can utilize it at the same time without version issues when you save your file. We use it at the enterprise level, but you have to share the files to others within your organization through Teams or SharePoint. One improvement would be to transition to cloud-based functionality. However, that might limit the functionality in other ways."
"We need more integration with Microsoft Teams and other collaboration tools."
"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."
"The solution could be more flexible when it comes to integration."
"It needs to be more comprehensive."
"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."
"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."
