Pros/Cons
  • Pros

  • The ease of use with this software is really nice, if your company is like ours, we have companies all over the country.
  • Outstanding performance, highly accessible, easy to use and the pricing is by far the best.
  • Cons

  • I am a multi-disciplinary designer myself, and despite trying (very hard) several times to use Basecamp, I just can't get past how ugly, unintuitive, and clunky the UI is.
  • I just found it boring that you can only view one person's task list at a time, if you have a project with multiple members, it makes it difficult.

  • Pros

  • It integrates with Outlook, so tasks can be emailed to responsible staff. The export to PDF is great for sharing a snapshot of all the tasks in the entire project along with the Gantt Chart.
  • User-Friendly and easy to navigate. With little instruction, our special events director was able to set up the events with mininal assistance.
  • Cons

  • If I have a problem with MS project I can usually just google the problem and find something on a forum.
