Project Management App.

Couldn't agree more, Jon.
Another couple I have learnt about today are:
APEX by SIACAD - http://www.siacad.com/
Copper Project - http://www.copperproject.com/Little info on the APEX website but have been emailed a brochure and it looks fantastic, except it's on-line and a little expensive.....
Copper seems well put together also, but is also on-line and $$$$$ ! -
Not sure you you all have looked at OpenProject but it might be worth a look.

Thanks Glen
Do you use it? It looks like a very good option, I need something like MS Project and as this claims to be similar I'm going to try it out. -
I don't use it but I found it looking for a cheap MS Project like application for someone else. I have used MS Project before a bit and this seemed to have most of the basics. Worth a look for the price

Hi Guys,
I'm curently looking at whats on the market Project Management wise. Not for a Building / Construction Management, more to do with general business managements.
I have found an interesting site which lists quite a few of the MP aps that are on the market, http://pm-sherpa.com/features/basecamp-alternatives/ and this one http://webworkerdaily.com/2007/04/07/alternatives-to-basecamp-for-project-management/
I noticed in one of the above, under the lists in the Blog, that therw were other apps mentioned and one of these was a Building / Construction PM app. I will try and locate it and post here. But in the meantime you might like to check out whats available. The ony advise I can offer is that the Project Management Software SHOULD NOT be a project to learn
Mike

..... further to the above. The app I was thinking about is http://www.tangentworks.com/ Here is what the Blog said,
Basecamp is not for everyone. Our architectural firm is using a brand new product called . Tangentworks was written for the AEC (architects, engineers and contractors) but it’s VERY suitable for any person who works for clients and produces something (projects, art, graphics, etc). 550 has all the basic collaboration tools such as calendars, announcements and to-do’s but also has AEC industry specific lists. But if you find that you want a list that’s not there you can create your own Custom List of any type. We’ve found it to be a great use to collaborating with our clients and project team members.Tangentworks 550 is affordable and charged by the project plus storage cost. There are no additional charges for users.

If all you need is are bar-charts, and if cost is a factor, get a old copy of Project 98. I use Project 95 in a WinXP VPC for bar-charts. Could never bring myself to pay for upgrades when I use it only a couple of times a year. Tried Pert, and Cpm a few times (a long while ago), but (I) found it too difficult for dynamic projects. I am told that MS Project is hard to beat, $60.00 on ebay.
