xTime Project 4.1.1 (Mac OS X)

Good value for my purposes  

I have tried the 4.1.1 product for the past few weeks and found it to meet my needs. True, it is not a full project management tool (No WBS etc) however it is easy to get started, does not cost $600 (Microsoft Project - I have Windows and Mac PCs) and integrates well with iCal so that I can communicate the project schedule to all the contractors. I have not run into any problems so far.

My son and I are building a house and he is 200 miles away from me at the work site. This application allows me to build a Gantt chart that everyone understands and also allows me to keep track of spending although excel is also a great help in this regard. I can publish the calendar to the web so that everyone can see it. This is very useful for all parties. They can see how they impact the critical path.

I handle risk management elsewhere and excel covers me for procurement information. I just needed a quick way to produce a Gantt chart. A picture is worth a thousand words.

With this tool and excel I have it covered. I am happy that I got what I paid for. [alert admin]

Customer policy  

I purchased the product after trying it for a few days. It has enough functionality and good iCal support for it to be useful to me and I do not want to spend $500 or more on Microsoft Project (I have Mac and Windows PCs). I like the user interface. Bad spelling and grammer doesn't bother me.

I am willing to be patient when it comes to problems. I have a project that I'm working on…
