I use MS Project quite a bit but we do not use all the functions, we mainly use it for Gannt charts.

I am aware of its capabilities and its a good program and will report the cost portion of projects.

My only "potential" gripe about the software is that it would probably be labor intensive in controlling, updating, and reporting the data. Please remember that I say this as one who has not used it to its full potential.

I guess it depends upon the level of importance and committment to project management that your company has.

Any other comments from members who have more extensive knowledge in the application of MS Project?
