"SharePoint site integration"
"We use the tool in our IT-related projects. All IT efforts are managed using the Microsoft Project Server. Every week, we have a project status meeting where we demonstrate the project's status using the tool. We track tasks and progress, assign owners, and monitor milestones and all project-related work using it."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that the tool's reporting is very good."
"Microsoft Project Server helps organizations in collaboration."
"Project schedule management is very good. Basically, it sits on SharePoint. So, every time we create a project, a new project site is created within that SharePoint environment, which is a very good document repository. It allows us to create issues and risks lists and additional functionality to keep track of what's going on with projects."
"The ability to look at the resource loading is most valuable."
"The technical support for Microsoft Project Server and the support is very good. Microsoft support is working very well."
"SAP is gradually introducing more flexibility and customization options to the system, allowing users to adapt it to their specific needs."
"The integration portion with SAP models is valuable."
"This solution could improve by adding integration with Primavera schedules to allow the reading and management of them."
"When we started using this solution from scratch, we got lost. Microsoft should provide some templates for configurations for certain use cases."
"Project Server could be improved by simplifying how tasks are assigned and reviewed on a daily basis."
"It would be better if the solution had some more training or resources available for a person who is new to Microsoft Project Server."
"The solution could improve the ease of access could improve. It can be time-consuming."
"When a lot of users logged onto the site, it took a big toll on the service. Therefore, there is a scalability issue."
"I'd like it if we could divide out the project calendars. On one project server, we might follow five projects or more at one time, and we'd like to see all of the items at once so that it becomes a long loop, but one where we can identify different projects in tandem and then focus on which we need to at the time. While I only have visibility into one, I'd like to see several at a time."
"Microsoft Project Server's user interface is pretty average, and sometimes it can have bugs."
"It would be valuable if SAP integrated seamlessly with some products like Jira and Bitbucket."
"The system is old, so there are several issues that arise when we fetch data from integrated systems. Sometimes the data gets stuck, and there are instances where we need to access multiple pieces of information simultaneously."
