  1. Dear developers,
    My name is erico and my e-mail is ericobr@click21.com.br. It seems to me that this tool is very nice. I wonder if it has compatibility to migrate from dotProject 2.1.1, where I have more than 40 users, 20 projects with hundreds of tasks. I tried once to import mysql file to web2project but it failed for many reasons.
    And moreover, it is undoubtfully that you have done a very good job. But as member of a huge enterprise I wonder if both tools will scale to large projects and if it is worthwhile, IMHO, to have three tools that are, basically, the same.

  2. I can pretty much say that it's not worth having 3 project management tools for one group (that was an easy one). Will ITProjectGuide-PM scale? I think it's more then capable for a small to mid-size company (100 + users 50+ active projects) - but I have not done any stress/performance testing. Will it be an easy port? I think there would need to be come conversion since I've modified many of the tables, however not the key ones.

  3. Thanks Meade,

    By the way, do you think if i try porting dp mysql scripts into web2project will tough, then, porting to ITProjectGuide? Is there much difference between both, i mean, ITProject and Web2project?

  4. Web2Project was (from what I could tell) pretty close to dotProject from a database perspective. When I started IT ProjectGuide-PM one of the goals was to reduce complexity (what I considered unnecessary data) - so the difference is probably bigger for ITPG-PM then a port to web2Project - HOWEVER - with fewer tables/fields there's less to transfer. If you need help porting let me know.
