Ideal Project Software For Teachers

PROS: I have been using RationalPlan as a teaching aid for Project Management at James Cook University and I have nothing but praises. The platform is intuitive, easy to use, and well supported. My students find it very friendly and has a short learning curve, which means they are able to run with it and develop highly detailed and well constructed plans with the use of this tool.

CONS: Nothing to dislike. Especially when the latest version offers a smoother and better user experience.

My Thoughts on RationalPlan

PROS: No doubt the best alternative there is to MS Projects. Very user friendly whether you want to manage small projects or head larger, more complicated expansions. I run a small business and RationalPlan is an excellent tool for tracking and estimating projects.

CONS: There is nothing to dislike about this platform.

Best Alternative To MS Project

PROS: It is clear that RationalPlan is created using sound project management principles. Setting up is a breeze, as well as planning and managing projects. The software is easy to use and doesn't present any complications, especially if one becomes well versed in the platform. I also love how their email support is responsive, quick, and very friendly.

CONS: The way they describe Fixed Units vs Fixed Work tasks seems awkward. It also has compatibility issues with WebEx, which we use to train remote users.

Outstanding Project Management Tool For Multiple Platforms

PROS: RationalPlan is an ideal application especially for our company where we belong on a multi-disciplinary group. That means we have different individuals who are using different opeating systems. RationalPlan makes it easy for us to function individually and collectively.

CONS: I wish they could improve on their MS Project integration. That being said, RationalPlan is a comprehensive tool all by itself.

A whole lot better than MS Project

PROS: I love that RationalPlan is web-based and works well with my Mac. It is quite similar to MS Project, which I used before, so the transition wasn't painless. It comes with all the features I need, such as task management ans Gantt charts. I love that it offers Outlook integration, which makes emailing to other members of the team easy and quick.

CONS: Whenever I export to Excel, the tier levels of the tasks and sub-tasks just disappear. That is a big thing as setting email emails on tasks that are late is not an option.

Great Software for Project Management

What do you like best about RationalPlan?

I really like this software. It has a WBS portion to help construct your project ans it also has a Risk management Area. These are 2 features that really set this apart from other basic task tracking software. Don't get me wrong it does have task tracking and a Gantt View for schedule.

What do you dislike about RationalPlan?

The only thing I would like is a mobile app. I am out of the office and a mobile app would make this software so much better.

Recommendations to others considering RationalPlan?

Give it a try it is really nice software.

What problems is RationalPlan solving and how is that benefiting you?

We used this software to create an internal tech training project.
