# Milestones

Project milestones represent key achievements that mark significant progress in a project. They serve as checkpoints that help track how the project is advancing and build momentum toward final completion.

When a milestone is created your team basically has a target to point to.

**With Milestones:**

* You can view the periodic progress of your project through time.
* You’ll be able to know which milestones are completed (Green), In progress (No color) and which are overdue (Red).
* You also see the current status and comment on it.
