Overview

The Microsoft Project Professional platform is made specifically for the analysis and management of projects. You can use the platform to easily collaborate and plan your projects, prioritize tasks, and create visually pleasing presentations that increase productivity and efficiency amongst teams.

Microsoft Project Pro is associated with the Microsoft Office software family. However, it does not come with the standard suite of programs when you install Microsoft Office. Instead, it comes shipped separately. Once you install the product, you’ll see that it certainly looks and functions like an Office product. It has a familiar ribbon-based interface and a professional look that you will love.

Features

MS Project is a great product because it has user-friendly controls that make it quite flexible. It assists project managers in creating plans and allows you to assign different resources. Not only that, but you can track the progress of your tasks and how they’ve evolved. That way, your workload can be effectively analyzed, and your project’s budget can be managed properly.

Create Original Projects or Edit Templates

You can start from scratch and create a project if you want. But to make things easier, Microsoft offers a series of Project Templates which you can choose from to use for your project. They cover various aspects of virtually all businesses. Regardless of your project’s size, you can use Gantt charts and timelines to have total control over it.

Key Features

There are advanced reporting tools that make it easier to allocate resources and measure the evolution of your tasks. You can customize these tools to accommodate your requirements. One feature called the “Team Planner” is designed to help project managers predict problems that could cause scheduling conflicts. By doing this, the managers can change what is needed so that workloads do not become affected.

The Lync feature is a sharing tool for initiating messages and calls instantly to participants of the project. Through the integration of SharePoint and Office 365, you can access projects from pretty much any location.

Finally, project managers can depend on presentation features that are built into the software to highlight their project’s strongest points. This is great when presenting to executives and other important stakeholders.
