Project Management software [closed]

Question

i'm interested in project management software similar to MS Project. the project is a serious rebuild of my software. we have a bug management system already but i need to track project progress.

i don't like web-based apps so much because the data is either hosted off-site or i need to set up my own server.

i like MS Project but it doesn't seem to compare estimated time with actual time and use it to pro-rate the future work estimates.

i'd like a gantt chart & calendar view.

thank you for your help!

Answer 1

Give open workbench a try: http://www.openworkbench.org/

Answer 2

Here's the rundown from Wikipedia.

Answer 3

From the list that Ben Hoffstein provided, two caught my eye - eGroupWare and Project Pier. Although those two might not meet your needs, they appear to be worth looking at for my needs.

Answer 4

I used primavera some time back, and I think it can do the said comparison.

Answer 5

I remember when Joel posted about the new Fogbugz Evidence Based Scheduling. Seems like it might be what you're looking for.

Answer 6

It's web-based, but Jira tracks time, and can be combined with the GreenHopper plugin to give an Agile-style Planning Board and Burn-down chart. It doesn't, however, do velocity for you.

Answer 7

I also used the open source tool OpenProj, worked perfect for me.

Answer 8

since i'm a one-man project, it became clear the best solution for me was an Excel workbook that tracks time management & pro-rates remaining tasks. the Recalculate macro updates the statistics.
