RiskyProject alternative
When RiskyProject is the right choice
RiskyProject is the right choice when you do not own MS Project and want one affordable desktop tool that does scheduling and quantitative risk together: it has its own full scheduling engine, an integrated register covering non-schedule risks, published pricing, and a self-serve 30-day trial.
Unlike RiskyProject, Epoch SRA analyzes the MS Project plan you already have — imported with a report naming everything it could not translate, into the Excel workbook where your register already lives — rather than replanning your program in a separate desktop tool.
