The best projects are the sons of Microsoft

4.0 2 months ago

Comments: A positive experience after all, excellent for university projects, and above all very qualitative.

Pros:

Of Microsoft Project I like the few (but good) tools available that allow you to create quality projects, exporting them with equal quality.I also like the fact that you can easily work in groups, and retouch your creations in just a few clicks.

Cons:

I don't like that many tools that I consider essential for the success of a job are paid for, and therefore not available to everyone.
