I am very happy with Merlin, it’s very powerful and comprehensive. I can customize my views, limit the projects visible date range if I want, print with or with out the Gantt, and combine more projects into a master and even publish my project for web access. Merlin’s support is very responsive and their user forum very active and helpful.
Cheers.
