The authors were praising the software and complaining about project managers who didn't know how to use it correctly. LOL. They were recommending managers to find trainings and spend months on learning to use MS Project appropriately. I have just one question, was MS Project made for real people and real projects then? I really love the fact that more and more lighter tools emerge these days. Tools like Clarizen or Wrike are much easier to use than MS Project. You don't need training to know how to use their features. These tools will bring more benefits to managers, as they are focused on collaboration. Not to mention the fact that they are at least 5 times more affordable than Project. I recently read an article about MS Project.

They seem to be more focused on the higher end of the features spectrum--heading towards the space occupied by companies such as @task. We've started cataloging Clarizen and other products in the project collaboration space at: <a href="http://www.projectcollaborationcenter.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.projectcollaborationcenter.com</a> to help people sort through the noise and find a tool that is a good fit for their needs.
