Providing unparalleled reporting for our projects

What are the best aspects of this product?

LiquidPlanner's reporting is head and shoulders above the rest. Its reports are easy to make and provide a great tool for sifting through data. I also like the way the projects are presented; I get a feel for where each project stands with just a quick glance. In addition, the timesheet exports are great, as well as the customizable fields and columns.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

The scheduling is way too cumbersome and takes too much management to set it up. We need much more granular permissions than what is currently available so I can restrict people from setting activities, running specific reports, etc. For our purposes, LP seems to only have two levels of permissions. We also need daily timesheet submissions so we can know who logged in their time in a day. The portals were not a success for us and we need also to have custom fields that aren't just dropdowns.

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

It provides visibility as to where each project stands at any given moment and that has been extremely valuable to us.
