When MS Project Doesn’t Work on a Mac Most project managers have endured Microsoft Project. For years, it was an industry standard tool, even though it was (and is) difficult to use. Whether using MS Project for desktop or MS Project Server, the problems of the tools are legendary.
The calculations are confusing and overly complex. Sharing files requires add-on tools like Sharepoint. It’s non-collaborative, meaning only PM Pros can use it. And it’s costly. MSP Desktop can cost $1200 per license. And MS Project Server, can easily start at $100k for an install.
For Mac users, MS Project is a non-starter. It simply doesn’t work, leaving many looking for an alternative solution.
