MS Project is a simple application developed by Microsoft which works as a tool for project managers to properly implement a task. It’s a very simple application but could be greatly used for business purposes since it will be used as a measurement on how the project is being handled.

Although MS Project is a great application, it has something that pushes away users from using the application – it’s not free. The application comes as a bundle with other office products or could be purchased as a stand alone for various purposes. Since project management is a relatively easy task, purchasing a software may not necessarily be worth it.

If you’re looking for an alternative to MS Project, consider using the free tool named SimpleProject. Developed by Danish developers from Adept.dk, the application is fully compatible to MS Project files from 2003 to 2007 (the latest) version. The usual tools of MS Project are also available in this software and files from MS Project (MPP) don’t need to be converted to be opened.

But you can still work with SimpleProject even though you don’t have an MS Project file. You can use the application and save the project you created with their unique file extension (.prj). Unfortunately, this file type cannot be read by MS Project. But still, the application is a remarkable alternative to MS Project and could be easily shared to different users – as long as they have the same application. SimpleProject will make you realize you don’t have to spend extra money to get a good project management tool.
