Situation: You need some help with your project.

We rarely like to brag, but I just have to share these with you.  This is a partial list of responses from a survey that just ended a week ago.   Forgive the typos, etc. -  I just grabbed a bunch and pasted them in here to give you a sampling.  

Our members really love gantthead - and love you guys right back.  As always, please let me know if you need help and can't find it on the site.

Now for the rave reviews...


 

In a couple of sentences, please tell us what you value on gantthead. What makes us different or better than other project management resources?

 

 

Gary Rosenfeld

 

Many sites vie for the IT project manager's attention. IT Project Managers look for insightful and worthwhile content. Content that can add value to their job and assist in their professional development. This could be a much needed template or a forum in which to safely pose a newbie question. gantthead fulfills this need better than any other site out there.

 

 

 

Gareth Nicol

 

Much more realistic discussions and information that I find useful to either stimulate some creativity within my Program or to address real issues positively.

 

 

Jean Chrest

 

I can usually find something in the list of articles that will give me insight into helping me with struggles I find in my work life. Gantthead was also a valuable tool for information and support when I was between jobs.

 

 

Rick McClure

 

the downloadable templates are a great help.

 

 

Kim Doll

 

gantthead provides a very well put together product with relavent articles to Project Management.

 

 

Karen Cash

 

I like the periodic emails which contain various articles and white papers on one single topic. This allows a PM to focus only on that topic for improvement and study. The hands-on experience in the articles is very helpful and can assist PM's on a fast-track through the learning curve. I look forward to more articles and resources from gantthead.

 

 

Yvette Moody

 

I appreciate the variety in topics available. I can always find tools, articles or other information that is useful in whatever aspect of a project I need assistance with.

 

 

 

Rich Eaton

 

gantthead is focused on IT project management issues (versus generic PM), practical solutions (versus theory) and great active (versus dead) forums focused on relevant issues. All content is professional and very little of it is designed to steer me to specific vendor products or services.

 

 

Irwin Franco

 

- I have been using this site since three years. It is my main source for articles, best practices and advanced subjects about PM - When I need a template, This is the first place I use. - The quality, importance and development of each article become this site a critical source of information and points of view of PM Leaders.

 

 

Steve Dale

 

Gantthead provides well researched and structured advice to project managers in real-time in a "just in time" delivery format. What I mean by this is, A project manager can say, "I am having challenges communicating with some stakeholders, what are some techniques I can use to overcome these challenges?" Gantthead answers questions like that with practical advice and tools.

 

 

Rona Sharland

 

I value the sound & practical knowledge which I can trust and access at a click or two. This provides me with a valuable resource to work with cutting out any "noise" that I sometimes find at other websites.

 

 

Diane Krieger

 

The true spirit of sharing and collaboration, downloadable templates and solid information found on the site.

 

 

Katie Mankins

 

I really value the departments that have been set up on gantthead. I find that they align very well with my areas of interest. The articles that I find on gantthead are thought provoking, well written, and worth reading as well as sharing.

 

 

Susan Telford

 

Excelent articles on leadership

 

 

Mike McKay

 

Key relevant articles that can be applied directly to current processes and techniques used within the project/program environment

 

 

Jolie Roy

 

The wealth of experience and information gantthead provides gives me the chance to check in whenever I have a question or issue I need to address. Having a place to gather with other PMs going through some of the same things makes it not so lonely out here!

 

 

Michelle Reavis

 

The templates and project plans really help my team define project requirements.

 

 

Trudy Salkin

 

I find your articles very informative and applicable for all industries. The information is clear, concise, and well defined. I always look forward to ganthead newsletter emails due to the relevant topics. No other online source provides the excellent material as well as ganthead.com. Many thanks for the outsanding articles and support you continue to provide!

 

 

Grant Gibson

 

Relevant PM information and insights; Frequently issued Well written Fun to read

 

 

John Meyer

 

I like the ability to scan through several topics and click to find more information and from that, more references. Ganthead provides an interface that is attractive and easy to select items of interest. Some technical newsletters are colorless, and just show typed information and a link. It is hard to find topics that you want without reading through al the abbreviated introductions.

 

 

Beverly Hurley Hill

 

I only access a few PM resources and I find myself printing or forwarding your articles more than others. We are all PMP's and our moderate sized organization has two PMO's - one for new product which is marketing and revenue generating in focus - the other for operational projects which is expense and resource streamlining focused. You tend to speak to both sides and sometimes even contrast the two. Thank you.

 

 

Debbie Lowery

 

I'm really getting a lot of benefit from reading other's experiences in the articles. As a new project manager, I'm constantly searching to see how others handle various issues and I can usually find an answer that makes perfect sense to me.

 

 

Jeff Faulconer

 

I like the content you provide. The community aspect is also a nice feature. It's one thing to read about PM the way PMI explains it, but it's a whole different story trying to work through it.

 

 

pat tagnani

 

I can quickly scan and see if there is anything I am interested in. Templates

 

 

Roxanne McClain

 

It's a great place for research - lots of information in a central location. gantthead also seems innovative and in touch with the times, providing good information on how to deal with evolving technologies and tools.

 

 

Stephen Booth

 

Readable relevant information. Not just heavy turgid theory.

 

 

Laura Polak

 

The ability to network with my peers, and the great articles on subjects that are hot in the industry today. Gantthead is a wealth of information for the project manager.
