Microsoft Project

[ben dover]

Hi All,

Any of you know any suppliers of Microsoft Project?

Axiz, Recton etc don't supply it, or i don't see it on their price list anyway.

Thanks.

Doesn't it come bundled in Office ?

I found it, my company can get it for:

Profession: R12190 incl. VAT
Standard: R6000 incl. VAT

Let me know...

We are in CPT though.

Comztek or Mecer.

Do you want all the fancy stuff, or will you consider alternatives, e.g. Openproj?

If you are not going with the Project server part, then might I suggest you try OpenProj (www.openproj.org).
It is free, and does enough of MS Project to be useful.

My word. I did not realise that is was that expensive. R12K for the professional version. At an old company that I worked for, there must have been 50 - 60 machines loaded with MS Project. That was a big company that did bulk licencing with MS.

Thanks Guys, will give Comztek a call on Monday.
Have Postnet as a client, and they need to print peoples' "Microsoft Project Documents" when they come into the store.

It seems a little steep seeing as though they will not be using it, only opening the Project documents in order to print them.

Does the OpenProj open MS Project documents?

Does the OpenProj open MS Project documents?

Yes, it does.

Try BCX, DiData and Bytes also

 

[medicnick83]

Yes, it does.

The question is, does it open and print them properly.

I've seen many documents (word, excel) open in OpenOffice, but not print properly.

Prints them fine just doesn't have all the eye candy. We have one PC with MS Project on the rest of the guys use OpenProj
