I am looking for a Unix-based (SUN platform) project management tool to
aid in project planning and tracking for a 40-60 person project.  I am
looking for something other than SunTrack. Microsoft Project appears to
have nice features - but alas only runs under Microsoft Windows. My
requirements are a Mac-like user interface, multi-level views of the
project (sub-projects, tasks, activities), an alternate flat project view,
resource leveling, good tracking, and ideally multi-user support.

Also, has anyone had any experience with a tool called HP Softbench?

Last, but not least, I am looking for a tool that aids in rate chart
preparation and performs the projected project completion date
calculation. In case terminology is a problem, a rate chart is a graph of
actual vs. plan accumulated Milestones to date by reporting interval.

Please respond via e-mail.

Thanks in advance.
