Existing users, 
$70 is a lot to pay for nothing. If a mouse click or key-stroke produced the same action twice I was lucky. Printing was a dissaster (ten pages to print a pert chart of fifteen tasks).
Support was quick to answer simple preference questions and asked for a detailed description of my system, which I sent along with a detailed description of the many problems I encountered (ex.When you close a window the program quits; double click on a saved file and the program will open to an empty window.) They are not quick to answer anymore if ever.
Having said that, even If the program worked as advertised, it is still useless as a project manager because, oddly enough, it has no method for collapsing tasks into phases for an overview of your project. You cannot edit the gantt chart, which displays tasks in alphabetical order only. Unbelievable!

Beware: it's great. - A. Dixson
On this page, it states that you can plan sucessful projects. How is that possible without the ability to make some kind of an outline. If you have found a way to do this, I will retract that part of my review.A.D.

I appreciate your comments. I bypassed the demo and bought the product because I needed to get to work right away. The company says the product was rock solid. It isn't on my machine (PowerBook G4). I knew there was no importing of subprojects, but that is not the same as saying that you cannot make subtasks, which is a prerequisite of any program advertised as personal project management software. Do you disagree?I feel that buyers of version one are being used to subsidize version two, which I am sure will have some sort of subtask/outlining capability.

Your experience certainly doesn't match mine. I got the demo, liked how it worked (which was how it was documented).Reply to This
