San Mateo, CA (PRWEB) August 8, 2007 — Projity, a leader in on-demand software for the enterprise, SME and SMB markets announced today that the public beta of OpenProj, a complete open source desktop replacement of Microsoft Project, is now being beta tested in over 400 customer sites comprising over 5000 seats. OpenProj, an important component to the open source ecosystem, is a complete replacement of Microsoft Project and available on Linux, Unix, Mac or Windows.

Since over 28 million users have Microsoft Project installed on their computers, OpenProj offers another opportunity for project managers and anyone trying to manage any type of project. Instead of a $1,000 license fee for Microsoft Project, Projity customers can download OpenProj for free and available on multiple platforms. “The Projity team has received tremendous feedback from key industry leaders, who are already using OpenProj to satisfy their desktop needs,” said Marc O’Brien, CEO, Projity. “We have been working on this launch for a while. The Proijty team is excited to provide worldwide usage of a free and open source project management solution that is a complete replacement of Microsoft Project and other desktop solutions. OpenProj’s familiar user interface and ability to open existing native Microsoft files makes migrating both free and seamless”

Very cool, this could be a real business enabler, the ability to share your Project documents cross platform, to abstract the document from the operating system is great news, it’s actually very cool software have been trying it with my mac today viewing some project files for work. Check it out.
