How to Install Add-Ons in Project Insight (Free, Pro, Business Version)

Project Insight’s free edition includes unlimited projects, tasks, co-workers, and team members. If you want to expand your workspace with additional functionality, you can install add-ons from the Add-Ons area.

Some add-ons are available in the free edition, while others require a paid plan. For example, certain add-ons, such as Time Tracking And Time Sheets, may require the Pro plan or another eligible plan.

Project Insight add-ons let you expand your workspace with additional capabilities as your team grows. Add-ons can support project work, capacity planning, time tracking, financial reporting, collaboration, workflow automation, integrations, and more.

How To Open The Add-Ons Page

You can access add-ons from either the home screen or the My Insight menu.

1. Log in to your Project Insight workspace.
2. From the home screen, select the Add-Ons app.
3. Or, open the My Insight menu.
4. Select Add-Ons.

This opens the Add-Ons administration page.

Installed Add-Ons Vs. Get More Add-Ons

The Add-Ons page includes two tabs.

Installed Add-Ons
Shows the add-ons currently installed in your workspace.

Get More Add-Ons
Shows additional add-ons that may be available to install.

In the free edition, some add-ons may be locked because they require a specific paid plan.

How To Install An Add-On In The Free Edition

In this example, the Comment Options add-on is available in the free edition.

1. Go to the Add-Ons page.
2. Select the Get More Add-Ons tab.
3. Find the Comment Options add-on card.
4. Select the add-on card.
5. Click Install.
6. After the add-on is installed, click Configure if configuration is available.

How To Configure An Installed Add-On

After installing an add-on, Project Insight may take you to the configuration page for that add-on.

For the Comment Options add-on, the configuration page is called Comment Settings.

To return to the configuration page later:

1. Go back to the Add-Ons page.
2. Select the Installed Add-Ons tab.
3. Find the installed add-on.
4. Click Configure.

How To Disable Or Uninstall An Add-On

Once an add-on is installed, you can manage it from the Installed Add-Ons tab.

1. Go to the Add-Ons page.
2. Select the Installed Add-Ons tab.
3. Find the add-on you want to manage.
4. Click the More Options button.
5. Choose Disable or Uninstall.

Disable keeps the add-on installed but prevents users from accessing its features.

Uninstall removes the add-on from your installed add-ons list.

Best Practices

• Review which plan is required before trying to install an add-on.
• Use Get More Add-Ons to explore what is available for your workspace.
• Use Configure after installation to adjust add-on settings.
• Use Disable if you want to temporarily stop access without fully removing the add-on.
• Use Uninstall when the add-on is no longer needed.
