5pm Project Management on Time 4+

Pretty good mgr

Pretty good. Works best under OSX. Clients on iPhone and iPad seem to be missing a few functions. iPad client should be done specifically for that platform, not simply a bigger iPhone app. The iPad has enough "real estate" to present all the functions.

But, in my work world, I have lots of small projects with employees and subcontractors doing many tasks. 5pm is quite effective in organizing the task "inventory" and tracking progress to completion. Notes, documents and messages ate easily "attached" to tasks and subtasks. Editing entries us pretty easy as well.

Overall, pretty good and I find it useful.

Generally Good needs improvement

I like the app but unless I’m missing something it appears to have extremely limited function. The website is great, not so much on the app.

Missing basic ability to see task by date due, priority etc making it impossible to manage more than a few task.

Hopefully we will see improvements soon as the developers have been responsive in the past.

Developer Response ,

We keep adding new features, but are also trying to keep the iOS interface light.
Sorting of projects/tasks by deadline, priority, name, etc. was already added to the app.

Easy to use, fast.

A great client for iOS. I like the global Activity view to go over latest messages.
