The best web-based project management system

I haven't really used the other systems so my argument can't be take REALLY seriously but my experience with basecamp has been a good one. I love its simplicity and as many people don't know 37 signals actually boasts about its lack of features generally.

Basecamp organizes all my projects very well and has what's necessary not the bloat. I'd recommend it to anyone maintaining a large project.

I only have experience with Central Desktop, and even that is limited, but I can vouch for it's quality. It may not be in depth enough for enterprise or other high level projects but it certainly will get the job done for the website's real target audience.

Seeing as I am not really in a position to necessarily need a project management system, I don't know if I am particularly the best candidate for a debate. Nonetheless, I strangely enjoy playing around with them. Lately, I have used clockingit.com. it is more for time management but I really like that I can make notes of my work so that I am constantly tracking what I am doing. It has a built-in forum, chat, file management and a place to set up notes. I haven't particularly used those extra features, but the layout is really nice and you get used to the system fairly quickly. There are also lots of cool features you end up using the more you stay with it. The best part is that it is completely free and you get to customize it a bit as well as having a link to your team's page.

I want to use it with a college magazine that I work for, but I have struggled in the past to get them to adopt tools like these as we're all students and they'd just rather check their email and deal with task/project management in their heads. So instead I use it as a kind of note-taking app and journal that tracks my time and keeps me thinking about what I am doing.

I'd like to see more free options like these. One feature that I would really like to see is better idea-management. I haven't seen anyone that has done it right. I could just have this idea in my head though that I won't let go of. I want to see ideas organized similarly to projects with features and attributes that you can discuss and modify. Essentially I want a system that allows me to think of an idea/project like a program and each attribute and feature can be arranged in hierarchical or folksonomical way and then everyone can discuss their stance, comment, modify or add more. This isn't really the place to discuss this, but I thought I should elaborate on what I want.

I have found a web-based project management software which Shares Microsoft Project schedules with team. Includes Project Portfolio Management, Issue Tracking, Risk Management, Timesheet Management, Document Management, Calendar Management, Forums, Reports and Project Dashboard.

A good hosted Project Management software that suits my EPM needs is called valleyspeak project server, which I found at http://www.valleyspeak.com. One of the main reasons why I like the software is the fact that I could continue to work in Microsoft Project 2007 while sharing my Microsoft Project plans with my teams.

Because it is a hosted service, I did not have to buy expensive software or deal with installation and maintenance headaches. The functionality that I have with valleyspeak to manage my geographically dispersed teams works well for me. We also evaluated Basecamp and some other solutions but were not impressed.
