Wanted: Project management tool

HCL Domino Domino Forum
1

This may be the wrong place to ask, but bear with me.

Im searching for a project management tool. Right now we are using a simple architecture consisting of views and documents in a database. In other words we are just writing our comments into a database. :wink:

I dont need a huge tool, spanning several systems. I need a standalone tool capable of handling various projects for various employees. The key features here is practicality and scalabality.

  • I should be able to access the tool through Notes.

  • I need some cross reference list of external users and their affiliations with our organisation.

  • I need to able to track a single developers (or a group of developers) current workload in some shape or form, a gant-chart perhaps.

  • I need a tool to make some very basic UML charts and analyzis - but that has to be an extra option.

  • I need a reporting tool to help a developer group track and handle posted errors from a user group.

  • I need to able to print monthly reports to the management.

  • I may need further features, but i cant think of them right now…

There it is - it may not exists, but i would be very gratefull to hear any suggestions you have.

With regards

Jacob Hansen

I’ll certainly go look at the pages, but i was kinda trying to get some first hand experiences with a solid project management system.

I have no doubt that there is a load of systems out there - I just want to find the best one :slight_smile: or a really good one…

Now we are getting somewhere.

It seems like a really good management system, but i’d love to have this kind of system as open source. :slight_smile:

We are a pretty dynamically development team, we would eventually want to make minor or mayor changes in allmost any system.
