Our group is currently investigating and evaluating UNIX-based Project Management tools for use on Sun workstations (Sun 3/xx). I am looking for input from anyone who has had experience with such PM tools. This includes tools that are in use, tools that were evaluated and not chosen (and reasons for not chosing them), etc., as well as your experiences with these tools. We are mainly interested in PM tools for Software Project Management, but would welcome input on tools that are general but would work for s/w PM. If possible, please include vendor contact information. Thanks in advance. -- Jim Gowgiel 1501 W. Shure Drive Motorola Inc. Arlington Heights, IL 60004 uucp: ..!uunet!motcid!gowgiel (708) 632-4753

I have seen their product, but since I am not a direct user, I can not comment beyond the fact that it greatly impressed me. Digital Tools, Inc.

Back at CompuGRAPHIC I used SUNTRAC and found it very useful. Possibly the best feature was the ability for a task to be its own project plan with subtasks and activities. It has a graphic interface under suntools (I don't know if there is an X windows version). It has been a couple years since I have actively used it. Ask SUN for a demo. Edward J.

It's both a planning (based on the COCOMO model) as well as tracking tool. We plan to get a copy to evaluate at some point as we've been generally unimpressed with such tools running on Suns.
