Microsoft Project and SharePoint will join Office 365

November 20, 2012 | Author: Adam Levine


Together with SharePoint 2013 (probably in early 2013) Microsoft will release its project management system Microsoft Project 2013. These two systems have become inseparable, because SharePoint is used as a collaboration layer under the administrative component of MS Project. With the new version, this integration will become even tighter. You'll be able to start a new project by creating a simple page with a task list and calendar in SharePoint, and only when you need more close control over the project you'll be able to turn on this project management in the MS Project. But of course, the main news about Project 2013 is appearance of the online version Project Online, that will be available in the Office 365 cloud. And, (like in case with new SharePoint Online), developers will be able to create their own add-ons and even sell them via Office marketplace.



Microsoft promises that Project Online will support all browsers. However, the online version will not have all the features of the desktop syster. In particular, there will be no new super reporting module, which is already admired by all MS Project fans.
