iTaskX

Comentarios: If you need a PM Tool, which supports you in planning and monitoring & controlling iTaskX could be the right choice. This tool gives you a clear overview of all activities which have to be managed in your project. Moreover, you have a high degree of transparency in resources and costs. ITaskX is a tool for both, for specialists as well as for beginners. You get a lot of options to customize your appearances. The product services and the functions you get are unbeatable. And the best, if you have knowledges in working with MS Projects, you will see how easy it is to switch to iTaskX. For me, it took me hours and I was familiar with this tool.

Comentarios: I am a PMP for more than 15 years and a Native Mac User, I been user of itaskX since version 2, this software it's very important on my day to day, it's very easy to work with and easy to collaborate with MS Project users.

Puntos a favor: The easy to learn and intuitive interface, its easy to work even when you have never touched itaskX before.

Contras: Hasn't an iPad version, or even a mobile viewer.

Comentarios: at the beginning was a little hard mainly in the compatibility with MS Project. The I was in a project in India 2015 (I guess) I requested support, and the support was really effective and fast, really good support.
I remember one of the problem that I have to deal with was the ID. Muy understanding is that in MS project the ID assigned to a Task never change even if you insert rows, as far as I know in iTask if you insert row the ID change. You lost the original ID assigned to a Task. This is one of the problem that I consider should be fixed

Puntos a favor: 1.- I have no other option to run MS project in MAC.
2.- Very easy to use
3.- Excellent support.
4.- Microsoft Compatibility

Contras: the inability to export as MS Project directly, I mean, it does not have the Save As .mpp file, instead you have to export as .xml file

Comentarios: We have used it to support many complex projects in the Digitial and ICT domain. We have found it useful in a world of users that operate across Mac and Windows. The ability to import MS Project templates has been an added bonus on getting projects off to a quick start during quotation.

Puntos a favor: Firstly it is one of the few tools that offers real support for Microsoft Project on a Mac. It is highly intuitive and I can readily share and manage projects on Mac and Windows. The tool can readily scale to support complex projects with a comprehensive set of functionality for resourcing, scheduling and reporting.

Contras: Nothing - I am very happy with the tool and capability.

Comentarios: This software is way better than MSP and top of the list in useability, if it could do more functions like MSP it would be the best PM software on the market. Keep up the good work! The development of this product through the different versions is definitely noteable.

Puntos a favor: It is close to what MS Project does for starting a project. I like the functionality of the graphical outputs better than MS Project, they are easier to select and print. Once you are familiar with the software it feels easier to use than MSP.

Contras: My largest complaint is I can't make multiple selections and changes to the WBS. This has been an issue on a large project where I had to change multiple WBS elements. I would like to see more of the data be transferable between MSP. So I can use my Mac while colleagues use Windows and all the data can transfer back and forth.
