Hey HN team would love your feedback; any & all welcome.

Built this to solve a capacity issue in a small team w/in a F100 company. People didn't hate it, which ends up one of the biggest compliments project collaboration software can earn. It's a niche within a niche in a some ways, but I got perm to put it online for others to use.

AngularJS, Django15, RabbitMQ, lots more.

I need to fix the upload limit but for now it's basically XML edition MPP files < 1Mb if memory serves.

This looks like a cool idea.

Demo Link You should put a sample Project Plan XML with some demo data alongwith a demo link. This way, someone with MS Project can download the XML and see how it "feels" in MPP and compare it with the online version.

Copyediting > PMOcean can remove one FTE analyst role from your staffing plan on larger projects. Please don't scare your potential users, :) Every product has a positive impact, while creating an adverse situation for someone. E.g. how E-mail impacted the postal departments.The offering should be put in a positive context.

Viral Why not offer a Sign up with LinkedIn account?

Disclaimer: I'm probably not your customer, but will be happy to see this idea take off.

Great feedback thank you. A few points I'll jump on and will repost HN at a more sane time including a demo link (demo/demo username/password should work now if you're interested)!

Thanks again

You're welcome. How do I reach you? I tried to login using Firefox, but had few hiccups. It will be easier to send you an e-mail.
