The best type of software. Balance between ease of use and power. Development for 1.5 is continuing! Though it may be a while. Anything worth having is worth waiting for. Tobias the lead is a very nice guy. Give him your Support and Patience if you support this project.

The component seems really good. However it does not work with Joomla V1.5.1.

The website says "basic support for Joomla 1.5 - there are some small bugs". These are not SMALL bugs, the component has major bugs. These are a few that I found:

-Backend
1. You cannot see users imported or access them. Which renders the component useless
2. Joomla menus disapear.

-Frontend.
3. Cannot log in. Which again renders the component useless.

There are a few hacks in the forums that helped me fix problem # 1. And there are a few post that claim that they fix problem 3 on their sites. However, it did not fix it for me.

Is there any support out there??

A really nice component however with the development site dead and no support it is hard to use especially as it doesnt really work in 1.5

I was up and running in less than 1 minute after the download. Install was a breeze, and the process is very intuitive. I am using this tool to work with multiple people and there have been zero issues.

Having tested a range of project tools I finally decided on this one – something I haven't regretted.

Installation is easy and the setup and configuration is easy and intuitive too. I currently uses it for planning projects in a society and am currently testing a Danish translation that I’ve made (I‘ll send it ASAP).

One small wish, that would make the component even greater, would be the possibility for exporting projects and tasks for use in e.g. a spreadsheet. This is of course possible from the database itself, but an integrated action would be perfect.

I like the component. Works great. I have been working wtih PHProjekt and I like this one better, since it integrates with my Joomla CMS instantiation. It is an excellent extension that I can use for managing work with my fellow developers. Excellent features are the importing of Joomla users.

The only difficulty I am experiencing with it is with the date management functionality in the task manager. If I put in a specific date, it defaults to the current date when I save a new/modified task. (v.0.6.7)

This works really well. I'm using for a web design team to collaborate on projects and it works great from installation to usage. Very good component!

hands down, best extension i have needed.

Event though it's young and in beta, this tool is incredible. The backend integration is flawless and admin tool design is cleancut and very functional. There's a great blend between an iconic and text button approach.

File management is fantastic. You can add files with new tasks, after the fact or add files separately altogether, and additionally can be secured to a specific user. Groups management is simple and slightly cumbersome but functions well right out of the box.

I'd like to see a little better front-end systems integration and management or ability to customize its sizing. Additionally workflow management would be useful, requiring that task contributors, etc. require their feedback or submissions be approved by an admin or Project Manager.

Another benefit would be templated projects - allowing users to create new projects with basic or templated tasks inserted (like a drop down menu); even more helpful would be allowing a finished projects tasks to be set as a standard template.

One final thing I'd like to see: integration with a billing/management system. Professional users could use this tool as a Professional Services Proj Mgmt tool. The front-end could help keep customers updated as to their project status; and billable items could be setup with tasks, i.e. billing could occur at 30% completed, 50%, completed, 100, etc.

Otherwise, this tool is incredibly useful for anything anyone has in mind.

This seems to be the best (and only?) component currently available for Joomla! that tackles all the common categories of a project-management-system.

Whether or not it can ultimately be useful is a different question. Most of the project-management-systems out there have the same problem - accessibility and ease-of-use of non-techie members/employees.

So although the features in the project are well-crafted, it's worth considering that accessing them requires a few clicks within Joomla.

Great for collaborative project work in small groups, but there may be some issues for larger organizations. Worth trying out, definitely.

This young program is off to an excellent start. I'd like to see full email integration both sending and recieving so that things like Sales Orders can be automatically printed.
Also a simple trouble ticket integration would be good that way things don't have to be duplicated.
All in all an excellent start. Lets not stop here though please!

Pros: Relatively simple and easy to use. No problems with installation. Looks good.

Cons:

1) Default display is 1024px width! Unless your Joomla template is full screen fluid width, you may want to think twice about this one as it will break your layout. There is a "business theme" at 800px width but it looks crappy and you have to edit your MySQL database to get it to work - kind of daunting if, like me, you have no experience with these kinds of things and are used to themes being installed automatically.

2) Developer is too busy to answer questions on the Project Fork forum. I've posted 2 or 3 questions weeks ago and still there is no reply.

This is one of the best extensions I have seen at the moment. Easy to install. Helpfull for having projects management on your website.

Look at the documentation if you want to install a theme or language

Great! Thanks a lot for your contribution!
However, I have some suggestion, hope that you 'll consider:

1. There should be some way to restrict Project's member not be able to delete or modify task & project!
2. There should be some way to restrict Project's member be able to access only the projects and tasks that they are responsible to!
3. There should be some way to restrict Client be able to access only the projects and tasks that they are relative to!
4. Ability to quick access to "My TODO" or Member's "todo list" should be displayed right after the toolbar after project's member logging in!
Best Regard!

We have installed software and even translated it to Bosnian. It works very good for us and I like integration with Joomla. We have made intranet site in Joomla and all users directly are in Project as well - nice stuff.

So far has all the good stuff we need for project management. I like it because it is just right. Some other software offers too much attributes for tracking project that we do not use.

Overall right balance of functionalities with nice visual. Good work.
