EMDESK platform pros & cons

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: I like how you can visualize the entire project and have all the information in a single platform and tool.

Pros:

It is a software completely aligned with the European programs. It is very versatile for project design and for project management.

Cons:

It is difficult to prepare the Gantt and introduce in the software the project resources and all the information when you are preparing a proposal. You have to invest time in it and compared to other tools (i.e., Excel) it is not that simple.

A good experience with EMDESK

5.0 last year

Comments: Using EMDES as a project coordinator has allowed me to easily manage projects, ensuring proper compliance with the work plan, continuous verification of work development and correct use of resources. All of this also allows for easy preparation of periodic and final project reports.

Pros:

It is very important software for the continuous management of a project, allowing a complete and updated view at any time. In general, it is easy to use and the technical support is efficient and quick to respond.

Cons:

The impossibility of editing files of various extensions on the platform, namely Word, Excel, Power Point and others, which greatly limits teamwork.

EMDESK is a great tool to monitor and manage multiple projects

5.0 last year

Comments: I am a great enthusiast of EMDESK and I recommend it quite often.

Pros:

The "one-solution-for-all-needs" mentality, I do appreciate most. This approach will help me now and in the future to use less single tools for different needs. EMDESK can support many project management needs with one single platform.

Cons:

An older version of EMDESK was used by us for a number of years. The new EMDESK is much more advanced and I was very positively suprised by the new layout and new functionalities. However, some important tools are still under development, such as the project calendar or also the 'track-changes' option in EMDoc, when working collaboratively in the team on one document. If the development would be a bit faster, I would have more good arguments for our project partners to decide now for EMDESK. Currently some projects, mainly those with very tight budget, prefer the 0€ costs options out there, even if using multiple ones is then needed for having all the features wanted, and even if the safety of their data is then not guaranteed.
