LiveProject allows you to view and print your MPP project files without the need or cost of extra Microsoft Project licenses. It includes Project Dashboards and Project Portfolio Dashboards with drill-down functionality. Export to several formats.
Features: LiveProject allows you to share project planning data with all your collaborator. Usually there would be many who do not need to have full fledged MS Project as they are not required to change any data. They need access to the data though. So this MPP viewer would be a good fit to such situations. These collaborators then would not to invest in MS project. They would be able to view, print and share your project`s .MPP file on any computer without the need or cost of multiple Microsoft Project licenses. With LiveProject, you can enjoy the view of your own project, print it, share it with others, or easily open client project files that have been sent to you.
The viewer can set passwords for user based on the need to access. The utility also supports auto filtering and priority support. You can also export the data in MPX format or the open source format for project data. Color coded view makes it easy to see the status at a glance. Gantt charts can be viewed in zoom, timescale or layout options and it is possible to easily toggle between the views easily. Print out the Gant charts easily too. Tab based interface lets you view multiple files simultaneously while project dashboard and project portfolio dashboard provides you with high level views of a single project or multiple ones. Calendar view, customizable colors used on task information are some features that make meaning out of the data easily. Ability to encrypting parts of data prior to distribution ensures people get to see what they need to know.
Overall: Really a useful product that is full of useful features and is actually easy to use.
