Project X 1.5 updated : more speed and features [ MacOS ]

Don't be shocked, but here's some non-iPhone news!

Marware's project management application for Mac OS X, Project X, has received a feature and bug fix update. Project X version 1.5 requires Leopard and offers a pile of enhancements over previous versions:

• New flexible licensing system
• 60% speed improvement
• A duplicate command for duplicating tasks, milestones, resources, etc...
• Resources are dispersed to all child tasks when you drag and drop resources on subprojects.
• New project templates for Law, Marketing, Software, and more

As a former Project Manager for a large multinational corporation, I can see where this application would have limitations for large projects. However, it is a great way for smaller workgroups who use Macs to set up and track their projects. I'm impressed with the way that Project X integrates iCal, Mail, and web sharing.

Project X version 1.5 is a free update to current owners of the application. There's a free demo available for download, or you can purchase Project X for $199.95 online or from a number of Apple Stores. If you're new to the profession of project management, be sure to visit Marware's online training page for tutorials and links to PM sites.
