Not really designed for end users, but admirably helpful and dynamic for managers

What are the best aspects of this product?

LiquidPlanner is exactly what every project manager needs: a tool for structuring projects, creating separate assignments, and estimating time. The UI is intuitive and equipped for granular analytics, meaning you can make your own nests/tree branches to divide and evaluate primary and secondary factors. The system is rich with layouts and functions, and it provides more content than the one apparent at first sight.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

The system is a piece of heaven when there is a detail-accurate analysis behind the wheel. While this is completely fine for project managers, less hard-wired employees struggle even to understand even the basics of their assignments. I’ve received many complaints recently (mostly from my writers and editors, but also one from my software engineering) that provoked a second thought of whether I’ve brought a facilitator or a challenge in the office. I see a serious lack of connection between the system and the skills of my employees.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

My role doesn’t encompass project planning with the software: all I have to do is to log in and to track my working time, and I’m quite satisfied with it. I can’t really access the benefits for the entire company.
