Simplified way to track and get project status updates and completion rate. It’s very easy to customize, it lets the user arrange information as preferred views to help ease the tracking of information. – Projects require a significant amount of documentation to support the tasks, to be used as ref...erence information, for audi. Software layout and design is a bit plane in comparison to other software for the same area. – Information can look a bit cluttered when browsing thru the tasks dashboard and Gantt view
