Abstract

Project management is unthinkable nowadays without the use of appropriate software. We compared different features of Asana, Basecamp, Microsoft Project, Smartsheet and Oracle Primavera software to investigate which of these solutions has the best characteristics in the opinion of the project managers in the UAE. In this study, a multicriteria analysis was used to evaluate selected software solutions. Entropy and multi-attributive border approximation area comparison (MABAC) methods were used. The entropy method was used to determine the weights of the criteria, while the MABAC method was used to determine the software ranking. Data for the purposes of this study were collected from the five top-ranked project management software by the g2.com user community. The results obtained showed that Asana software was rated the best, while Oracle Primavera was rated the worst from selected software solutions. These results were confirmed by the performed sensitivity analysis.
