Thanks. I was looking for something like this on Windows for my better half who needs a basic, easy-to-use project management solution (she has no project management training or familiarity with such software. I know, opposites attract :). But after playing with it for 5 min, I uninstalled it, thinking that Amode might be still be a better option.

Things that I didn’t like: it took a long time to create and open even the very first empty file, which made me wonder what would happen with hundreds of entries. When I accidentally clicked “done” for a task that was going to take place in the future, the Gantt didn’t refresh after I’ve undone the task. I think I needed to do some other operation (enter another task) before that “done” message from the Gantt went away. So that added to my impression of sluggishness.

I did like the fact that it did have a Gantt view and that everything was integrated into a single page. Was I too rash to uninstall it? I think I’ll ask my wife to give it a try.

Any long-term users of Pagico out there with more insight into its project management capabilities?
