Microsoft
Project is a project planning application that can be used by the project
managers in order to develop a plan, track the progress or manage the budget.
With Microsoft Project managers can also analyze workloads. Microsoft Project
has come up in numerous versions and the one we are reviewing here is Microsoft
Project 2016.
In this version there are few resource enhancements. It has always been a
challenge for the managers to secure the resources in order to ensure that
their project has been staffed properly. With the 2016 version now it is
possible to request the resource and once it is approved can be locked to
guarantee its availability. It has also added a new Report Section and it has
better integration with other Microsoft products. The user interface of
Microsoft 2016 has also been improved. This version also uses the new Office
query “tell me what you want to do”. It will also let you customize the views
in order to have multiple timeline bars as well as custom date ranges.
