The project charter, idea scoring and portfolio reviews come as ready modules in FlexiProject. It is an InLoox alternative you can test on your own projects.
The Gantt chart, baseline and resource workload sit in both systems. FlexiProject is a good InLoox alternative because you run PMO decisions in ready modules. Below are five of them: the charter, approval paths, scoring, reviews and a portfolio with strategic goals.
You prepare a charter template once for each project type, with goal, scope, KPIs and stakeholders. Data from the schedule, risks and budget feeds the charter automatically, and the manager sends it for approval. In FlexiProject every approved version goes to an archive, so the sponsor compares the current charter with the one from project start.
You build an approval path from project roles: sponsor, CFO, compliance or the steering committee. Steps run in sequence or in parallel, separately for the charter, the plan and the budget. In InLoox one person approves a project request with one decision. In FlexiProject every schedule or budget change shows who approved it, when and with which comment.
You set a scoring model per project type, with your own criteria, scale and weights. In InLoox scoring has three fixed parameters: risk, size and value. In FlexiProject you score a project again mid-way, and a weak project loses priority before it consumes the whole budget.
Each review has a fixed date. The report follows your corporate layout and pulls the schedule, budget and risks straight from the project. In FlexiProject the board’s decisions and comments after each review go to an archive.
A portfolio brings together the schedules, budgets and risks of its projects. In a simulation you switch a project off and see how the budget, the team’s workload and the goal KPIs move. Goals form a tree with subgoals, and you link projects to them with a level of influence. In InLoox portfolios sit in the Enterprise Plus and Self-Hosted editions, without simulation or strategic goals. In FlexiProject the same project can belong to several portfolios at once.
A PMO writes its process once: a charter template, an approval path and a scoring model. One project template carries the schedule, budget, risks and products. Every new project starts with these settings, so it is clear from day one who approves a budget change. Management and auditors see the same decision trail in every project. That makes FlexiProject a good InLoox alternative for organizations with their own PMO standard. You set up the configuration without a developer and without an implementation consultant.
You open FlexiProject in the browser or in the mobile app. The Teams integration, Entra ID sign-in, Active Directory sync and time off imported from Outlook are part of the license. The same price covers the Jira integration and MS Project file import and export. Teams outside Microsoft 365 sign in with their own accounts and two-factor authentication. The interface comes in 28 languages, and data stays inside the European Economic Area. FlexiProject is an InLoox alternative where teams across several countries work in their own language.
Engineering firms run many projects that share the same specialists. You see each engineer's availability, time off from Outlook and departmental workload in one place. Before you accept another order, you check who will be missing.

InLoox is rarely the only name on a PMO shortlist. See how FlexiProject compares with Microsoft Project, Wrike or Smartsheet on the same governance questions.
Yes. FlexiProject is a good InLoox alternative when a PMO needs a project charter, multi-step approval and portfolio reviews. FlexiProject is project management software that covers the whole project lifecycle. An idea goes through scoring, the sponsor approves the charter, and the budget keeps approved versions. In InLoox you plan on a Gantt chart and track time, including from Outlook.
Yes. FlexiProject is a good InLoox alternative for portfolio management, because projects enter the portfolio on scoring and organizational goals. The portfolio is part of strategic project management software for the board. A simulation switches a project off and shows the effect on budget and KPIs. In InLoox portfolios sit in the Enterprise Plus and Self-Hosted editions, without simulation. In FlexiProject the portfolio budget holds a reserve and an expected NPV, and one project can belong to several portfolios.
Yes. FlexiProject has its own accounts with two-factor authentication and runs in any browser, whatever your mail provider. When an organization uses Microsoft 365, the FlexiProject system integrations with Teams, Entra ID, Active Directory and Outlook are part of the license. Teams working in Google Workspace or a mixed setup use the same modules. You can also install the on-premises version with the full scope of modules.
Yes. A team that tracks time and collects tasks in InLoox can keep doing so. The PMO then runs the charter, baseline, budget, risks and reviews in FlexiProject. Small requests that are not projects go into the operational tasks module. This lets management see project work separately from daily work, and it lets you roll out FlexiProject in stages, starting with the PMO.
Yes. In the project plan module you save a baseline and see the variance on the Gantt chart. A change to an approved plan goes through a request with a justification. The sponsor sees the planned and requested end date and budget, with the difference. In InLoox you save plan snapshots and overlay up to three at once, without a request or approval. In FlexiProject every approved plan version stays available for comparison.
Yes. The Gantt chart tool supports all four dependency types, lead and lag, and dependencies across projects. You see the critical path, and dates on dependent tasks recalculate automatically. InLoox has the same set. FlexiProject also shows a warning icon on a task when a risk, a budget line or a product is linked to it.
The project resources module shows each person’s availability, with time off and their working hours, plus workload by department. Time off comes in from Outlook. When you assign a task beyond someone’s availability, the Gantt chart shows a warning. You also check workload across the whole organization. You can exclude a project that is not yet approved from the workload calculation, so it does not overstate the team’s load.
Yes. You import MPP files in the project schedule module, and load an Excel plan with column mapping. Dependencies, durations and milestones travel with the plan.
Yes. The project budget module shows the plan, costs incurred and the forecast to completion together. You approve every budget change as a new version. Cash flow runs month by month, and each line carries a cost center, a category and a supplier. InLoox plans costs and benefits split into CapEx and OpEx, without budget versions. FlexiProject keeps costs and revenues in one budget, so you see project profit right away.
Yes. In the project risks module you set a 3×3, 5×5 or a custom matrix. An administrator defines risk categories, and you link each risk to a schedule task. Risks from every project roll up in a portfolio tab. In InLoox the risk register sits in the Enterprise Plus and Self-Hosted editions, with a fixed 5×5 matrix. In FlexiProject you save typical risks in a template, so a new project starts with them already in place.
The project charter is a configurable document, with separate templates per project type and KPIs that carry baseline and target values. Every approved version goes to an archive. In the work areas module each team keeps its own charter templates and approval paths.
Yes. In the project template tool, one template carries the schedule, budget, risks, products and document patterns. Dates count in working days from the project start date. InLoox keeps planning, task and budget templates separate, and you load each one on its own. In FlexiProject you save a finished project as a new template with one click.
Yes. In the strategic goals module goals form a tree with subgoals, and you link projects to them with a level of influence. Each goal carries a KPI with baseline, target and current values. You score on your own criteria and weights. InLoox scores a project on three fixed parameters and has no strategic goals module. In FlexiProject the board sees goals, KPIs and linked projects on one screen.
Yes. The project programs module links the schedules of several projects on one shared Gantt chart, with dependencies between tasks. A date change in one project moves dependent tasks in the others. A what-if recalculation shows the effect before you confirm the change. InLoox has similar project groups. In FlexiProject the same project can belong to several programs at once.
You set a fixed date for each review. The report follows your corporate layout and pulls the schedule, budget and risks straight from the project. Board decisions go into a review archive. The FlexiProject reports module also adds dashboards with widgets and Excel export with filters.
Time off comes in from Outlook, users sign in through Entra ID, and you connect FlexiProject to Teams. Discussion about a project happens in the project communication module, next to a task, a risk, a budget line or a product. An @mention notifies the recipient right away. InLoox has an Outlook add-in that turns an email into a task. In FlexiProject the project chat goes into the archive together with the project.
Yes. The ready Jira integration is part of the license. You import epics, stories and tasks with JQL filters and map Jira users to FlexiProject users. Management sees IT teams’ work next to business projects. InLoox has no ready Jira connector, and prices integrations outside Microsoft 365 as a separate project. In FlexiProject you connect other systems through the open API and webhooks.
The FlexiProject interface comes in 28 languages. The knowledge base module and the user guide come in eleven languages. InLoox has six interface languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Polish. In FlexiProject, teams at offices in Czechia, Hungary, Romania or Ukraine work in their own language.
You export the InLoox plan to MS Project XML or to Excel and import it into a FlexiProject project. Dependencies, durations and milestones travel with the plan. Risks and budgets export to Excel and go into templates you prepare first. The team then works on the Gantt chart or the Kanban board tool on the same data. Setup and configuration for your organization are part of the license.
You add unlimited free users. A free user updates the status of assigned tasks and adds comments. Time against tasks goes into the time tracking module at every license level. InLoox gives free access as read-only only. In FlexiProject project managers work on a standard license, and the full license gives the full scope of modules.
No. One full license for an administrator is enough to start, with no minimum seat count. In InLoox the Professional edition starts at five users, Enterprise at ten, and Self-Hosted at twenty. The risk register and portfolios sit in the Enterprise Plus and Self-Hosted editions there. In FlexiProject a full license covers every module, including the risk register, portfolios and the project products module.
Contact us and describe the decisions your PMO documents: charter approval, a budget change, a portfolio review. We will set them up in a test environment on two of your current projects. On your own data you will then see whether FlexiProject is the InLoox alternative your organization needs.
