This is a community for those who want to be Microsoft Project 2010 ready!
Project 2010 is possibly the most significant Project release in a decade.
Three Versions of Project 2010
A simplified product: only three SKUs for MS Project:
· MS Project Standard 2010
· MS Project Professional 2010
· MS Project Server 2010
Few Major Changes of Project 2010
Simplified User Interface
Like that Ribbon UI in Office 2007? Well now you'll have it MS Project 2010. The new Ribbon UI makes commands easier to discover based on the task you are doing at the time.
To go along with this new Ribbon UI, there's a new View that could make the Gantt Chart obsolete. It's called the Timeline View and it's a graphical representation of your project.
You can quickly drag and drop to create a timeline and it has zoom and pan functionality. Even better though is the ability to cut and paste your timeline view in PowerPoint or Outlook as a real image.
Portfolio Server Included with Project Server 2010
2010 combined Project Server and Portfolio Server — a single server product offering.
The new Project Server 2010 will contain the functionality of both Project Server and Portfolio Server.
Other new integrations for Project Server include:
Exchange Server: Team members can look and manage their tasks and statuses from Outlook, and mobile users can access their schedules and provide updates using Outlook Exchange for Mobile or Outlook Web Access
Visual Studio Team Foundation Server: Development teams can continue to work within TFS on tasks and assignments and have updates synchronized with Project
MS Dynamic: Out of the box integration with AX (ERP) and SL, so that SMBs can extend Project accounting applications
SharePoint 2010
Project Server 2007 was built on WSS3.0, but Project Server 2010 is built on SharePoint 2010. [Which means you need to have a full SharePoint installation if you want Project Server 2010.]
