Edwin,

if the software is used then it is good.

But people and companies have different requirements and if there is a choice select those tools that better fit to their requirements.

Plammimg and controlling quantities of work and overtime are two of many examples of features that you may find only in Spider Project. But if somebody does not need them then for this person it does not matter.

MS Project is the best tool for drawing Gantt Charts if you don't need anything else.

So the best tool is one that better fits to your personal requirements.

Also take a look at Spider implementation of productivity measured as volume of work per hour, different to other software that cannot speak the language of construction, un-intuitive software perhaps good for IT schedules and other industries that measure work per hours effort no matter if there is actual production or none.

Hi Edwin,

if you need planning by quantities look at Spider Project.

In Spider Project it is called Volume of work.
