In past lives, I've been quite dependant on MS Project. Managing large projects, this is a decent tool (large like 10 to 20 workgroups, 50 to 100 milestones, hundreds of inter-dependant timelines, deadlines and headaches!) There are a couple of alternatives, though the only I've seen that are in the same league as MS Project run only on the windows platform. phpgroupware is not in the same class of software application as MS Project. Two very different tools. Not to knock phpgroupware and many other open source web based group collaboration tools. There are several out there, great stuff. If you can wade through this bunch 'o html, lots of choices for groupware. (If it's a mess, post me back on the list and I'll clean it up & repost, short on time at the moment, gotta run) Usability First, groupware product links

I don't know if Mr. Project runs on m$, but phpgroupware has a project module and it's all a web interface, so it runs whereever you want :). Ideally we need a project planner that runs as a GUI for day to day use, but also has a web interface for clients who don't have the app installed. ciao, der.hans
