Project phases and milestones are both critical components in project management, but they serve distinct purposes. Milestones are significant events or achievements within the project timeline, marking the completion of a key deliverable or a phase.
While project phases focus on the work that needs to be done, milestones serve as markers of progress, highlighting critical points in the project timeline and providing opportunities to review and adjust the project plan as needed.
You can set a date range for phases, but you can only set a single date for the milestone.
