Testimonial:

The best Viewer on the market.

"I tested all of the viewers for MS Project available in the market place and in my opinion, Seavus was the best by far. Not only does it look similar to Microsoft Project (thus reducing our training overheads), but the Seavus network licensing model also made it possible to make this viewer available at an extremely cost effective price to all the users within our organisation. Well done."
