I've stumbled across this informative site and being in the midst of starting up a new PMO from scratch I thought I'd ask for someone advice re PMO software.
Currently reporting is all completed manually by PMs and Project Plans are all saved locally so lack of visibility and transparency for Senior Management.
Couple of questions, if we are using Microsoft Project as the preferred software, is our only option to have greater transparency of project plans through implementing Project Online / Server? If anyone uses this does it come with reporting dashboards that we could configure for Senior Management or would that be a separate product or integration required?

We do our project plans in Excel that includes Project request form, Plan on a Page, EVM forms and MS-Project (detailed plan) submitted to Steering committee as a package for approval. (The request includes business case and project benefits justification.)
However, for reporting, (weekly updates) to top management we used a QUAD chart power point format with Project Objective/Scope (with Green, Yellow or Red indicator), Accomplishment this week, Plans for next week and Risks or concerns. Saving Changes...
