20 Years of Merlin Project – A Milestone in Project Management Software

Happy 20th birthday, Merlin Project

Today we are celebrating a very special birthday: Merlin Project is turning 20! Two decades in which the software has developed from an ambitious tool to an indispensable companion for project managers worldwide.

Over these 20 years, many millions of lines of code have been written, continuously improved and expanded to meet the needs of users and set new technological standards. Behind every line of code is the goal of providing the best project management tool on the market – and we are proud to say that we are very close ;-)

With the intelligent assistant in the (upcoming) anniversary version of Merlin Project 9, we are now also entering the world of artificial intelligence. The AI-supported assistant automatically creates a complete project structure from a simple text entry, including processes, dependencies and resources.

Since its release in 2004, Merlin Project has been used to manage countless impressive projects worldwide – from complex construction projects that have made architectural history, to events by famous artists that fill stadiums and arenas, to innovative IT and software development projects that are driving digital transformation. Whether it's creative film productions, international events or research projects, Merlin Project has always helped project managers turn their visions into reality. Merlin Project has even left its mark in outer space.

Merlin Project's success would not have been possible without our dedicated community of users and developers. Your feedback, ideas, and projects have shaped Merlin Project and made it what it is today: a powerful, flexible, and intuitive tool that is indispensable in the world of project management.

We are celebrating this milestone – here's to the last 20 years and many more successful years with Merlin Project! Thanks to everyone who has accompanied us on this journey.
