I like how you can visualize the entire project and have all the information in a single platform and tool.

It is a software completely aligned with the European programs. It is very versatile for project design and for project management.

It is difficult to prepare the Gantt and introduce in the software the project resources and all the information when you are preparing a proposal. You have to invest time in it and compared to other tools (i.e., Excel) it is not that simple.

Using EMDES as a project coordinator has allowed me to easily manage projects, ensuring proper compliance with the work plan, continuous verification of work development and correct use of resources. All of this also allows for easy preparation of periodic and final project reports.

It is very important software for the continuous management of a project, allowing a complete and updated view at any time. In general, it is easy to use and the technical support is efficient and quick to respond.

The impossibility of editing files of various extensions on the platform, namely Word, Excel, Power Point and others, which greatly limits teamwork.

Complexity of using and creating profile of a project

I am a great enthusiast of EMDESK and I recommend it quite often.

The "one-solution-for-all-needs" mentality, I do appreciate most. This approach will help me now and in the future to use less single tools for different needs. EMDESK can support many project management needs with one single platform.

An older version of EMDESK was used by us for a number of years. The new EMDESK is much more advanced and I was very positively suprised by the new layout and new functionalities. However, some important tools are still under development, such as the project calendar or also the 'track-changes' option in EMDoc, when working collaboratively in the team on one document. If the development would be a bit faster, I would have more good arguments for our project partners to decide now for EMDESK. Currently some projects, mainly those with very tight budget, prefer the 0€ costs options out there, even if using multiple ones is then needed for having all the features wanted, and even if the safety of their data is then not guaranteed.

EMDESK is best used if you are a project coordinator, however you can effectively manage multiple projects as partner and keep track of all the main deliverables and milestones with a single software

EMDESK is a project management software built for EU projects. The structure of the tool mirrors the format of EU projects and this makes life of an EU project manager easier than other more general software management tools that need to be adapted.

I'd like to see more features designed for managing day- to-day routines and minor tasks that you need to carry out to achieve project milestones. However the regular software updates tend to introduce more and more flexibility and with a bit of creativity you can adapt the activities and events to most of your needs

We're very satisfied with the product

The data - analyses, the budget vs expenses and document sharing

What we are missing, is a multi variable gant percentage per cost component per projectpartner

The interface is very clean and objective. Functionalities are easy to find and configure.

Some missing features are very important on a daily basis for users with multiple projects, such as the possibility to remove/delete a project and include personalized projects templates.

My experience is very good.

I like workplan with all capabilities. It would be great to have all tasks view, even with smaller icons

Schedule. I would like to have an inormation on ongoing activities and when I am nów in the project - sych as in Sharepoint

None

the platform is complete and has a lot of features

improve ease to access to the platform fo the user

EMDESK allows to keep track of tasks and deliverables easily. The reporting function on budgets are really useful.

the user interface is very complex. the Gantt chart printing options are not useful (had to redo it in a different software to make it look ok)

la possibilité de retrouver toutes les présentations des conférences et séminaires

La plateforme est complexe en ce qui concerne la planification.

Emdesk is easy to use and saves time for administration. It offers all the critical features and is perfectly designed for the needs of academic research projects.

An integrated scheduling app would be very helpful.

It helps to organize EU projects and to stay on track,

It is easy to use for EU projects and the ACADEMIC link is very useful

For me the software is just fine, I just find it a bit overpriced.

EMDesk enables the tracking of projects for the daily routines of project management processes.

I wasn't able to fully use the tool and, up to now, all features presented seem to be needed. Nothing in special cought my attention.

There are no options to create projects from existing projects or templates (including tasks). It is desirable to track projects also considering events (milestones and deliverables).

Thanks. A tool that helps to plan and maintain a project, forms the rules of project behavior.

Planning, visualization, detailing and informative ease of use.

Additional links to calculations. Presentations and reports encourage research.

It is a little difficult to initiate the project setup from the zero, if the project does not fit into any template.
