And it is not cost-effective for a Small to Medium Enterprise (SME) to spend so much money on one license of the software. So, we did a bit of research and came across this tool which is a perfect alternative to Microsoft Project and comes for free, yes free as in free beer.<\/p>\n<p>OpenProj (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.openproj.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" name=\"openproj.org\">www.openproj.com<\/a>) is a free, open-source project management solution and an alternative to Microsoft Project. It can open existing Microsoft files and is available for Windows, Linux, Unix or Mac. OpenProj can do Gantt charts and PERT charts.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the features available out of the box from OpenProj are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Define Resources with the type Work or Material<\/li>\n<li>Define Standard and Overtime rates or Cost per use for resources<\/li>\n<li>Put resources in groups<\/li>\n<li>See Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)<\/li>\n<li>See Resource Breakdown Structure (RBS)<\/li>\n<li>Checkout Task Usage and Resource Usage<\/li>\n<li>Run different reports<\/li>\n<li>Gantt Charts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It allows you to open files from other applications such as Microsoft Project 2003, Gnome Planner and Microsoft Project XML format.<\/p>\n<p>Now go ahead download and install OpenProj and start managing your projects.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently someone asked me about an Open Source or Free alternative to Microsoft Project and why not&#8230;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kadence_starter_templates_imported_post":false,"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[273,279,420],"class_list":["post-2459","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-article","tag-finance","tag-inventors","tag-market"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>OpenProj - Open Source Project Management - Target Integration<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Recently someone asked me about an Open Source or Free alternative to Microsoft Project and why not because Microsoft Project Standard 2007 comes for nearly Eu...\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.targetintegration.com\/en_ie\/openproj-open-source-project-management\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"OpenProj - Open Source Project Management - Target Integration\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Recently someone asked me about an Open Source or Free alternative to Microsoft Project and why not because Microsoft Project Standard 2007 comes for nearly Eu...\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.targetintegration.com\/en_ie\/openproj-open-source-project-management\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Target Integration\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2010-04-29T10:54:26+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.targetintegration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/OpenProj.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"alberon\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"alberon\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.targetintegration.com\\\/en_ie\\\/openproj-open-source-project-management\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.targetintegration.com\\\/en_ie\\\/openproj-open-source-project-management\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"alberon\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.targetintegration.com\\\/en_ie\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/6cf1a626a98188cb709e7c650b1e35a0\"},\"headline\":\"OpenProj &#8211;
