Some folks use Artemis. It's a bloated thick client, oracle based, that runs
on NT and probably other things. Managers seem to be able to use it.
Lotus has something too, and that prolly runs on Linux.
The freeware stuff isn't quite up to hardware engineering project management
although for software project management I think there are some potentially
nice things being developed... there are a few little ones on freshmeat.
I think Umar had some comments about large-ish project management s/w -
check last year's archive maybe. Wasn't Linux based though.
We are also looking at "Product Data Management" S/W. Again, haven't seen
anything for Linux. Some of the more decent ones run on big iron though.
I look at the offerings and see if the s/w is extensible, able to grow with
the company, supportable without having to hire a team of programmers, what
are the annual license fees, rock solid db backend, runs on various
platforms, web front end, who can get you out of a bind if it breaks, bla
bla bla. M$ doesn't even cut it.
Cheers,
Jill.
