Project Management App

[burkster_j]

thanks @peter105 for the cost calculator -- was just looking for something different to use. i'm familiar with these project management tools:

• Gnome Planner
• GanttProject
• dotProject
• Tutos
• ProjectPier

Would love to hear status update if anyone has a better/best tool. Also, let me know of good project manager salary resources, as my friends are telling me my salary is lagging behind the industry.

I'm using OpenProj, good and compatible with MS Project

Read my review....

I'm also using OpenProj, it's a good Linux equivalent of MS Project. Not quite as elaborate, but it handles everything I need so far.

Interested in learning more about project-open - it seems pretty amazing but also seems pretty difficult to install at least in Ubuntu...

I am using Project Pier as I found that to be the best Open Source Online PMS. I do miss time tracking, Gant Charts and or Agenda integration though. Especially an overview of what is up in a specific week or month using a calendar view would be a great asset. The only better ones out there I found are commercial ones, so I am sticking with Project Pier for now. And, maybe, when I finally have some time, I try to improve it myself..

Yes, its a good software but it may have issues if your project has tasks in 100's. For relatively smaller size projects, its very nice solution. However, I had it installed in Ubuntu 10.04 without any issue what so ever.
What problem did you face?

Using Onepoint Project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/opproject/) for years now I am very satisfied. It has a Gantt Chart showing critical path, runs well on ubuntu (although there is also a web solution called open edition) an interactive WBS supports export and import from/to MS Project a Resource Utilization chart and excellent plan-is comparison tools. If you require additional features like reporting functionality you may also take a look at there commercial version at http://www.onepoint-project.com
