Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Hey,

I used to work for the government and now I work in the private sector and have been exposed to so many different tools. I work mainly with software developers now and they suggested using PPT (www.pureprojecttools.com). It's new to me but so far it's been great. Apparently they really take into account the feedback that is given and often you will see your feedback reflected in the update. It's really easy to use and really keeps track of deliverables, schedules and people.

Hey Franco, 

you can also try out eResource Scheduler by Enbraun. It is a collaborative resource management software which can handle your resources(human & non-human) efficiently in order to optimize the output. This resource management program has a comprehensive set of features such as drag & drop scheduling, forecasting reports, you can identify\filter resources on basis of skill, role, experience, locationsetc., resource utilization reports, billable bookings. I think they provide a free 14 day trial as well. For more information you can log on to their website,

Time Doctor seems to be free but I don't think it is an open source tool.

I would like to try this though. However, I don't see the problem of using these software since it's using the same concept but rather just different algorithm calculation.

My problem is most of the contracts, if not all, in the middle east, are focused on just major players = MS, P6 or P3...

How can we implement this? just a query

Great list! I was surprised not to see Time Doctor, a time tracking software on the list though. It's relatively as good as all the others I see. It's also open source.

Were you the one who compiled this? You might want to add it too. Anyway, good job! Thanks for sharing. It's really helpful.
