For scheduling and resource management of our company's projects, we use JIRA and Microsoft Project Server. The reporting and analytics part of the product is very good. The integration capability of Microsoft Project Server is phenomenal, and it serves as one of the reasons why the product has been holding up in a good way till now in the market. For certain use cases, Microsoft Project Server is a good product. I would recommend the product to others who plan to use it since it is good when it comes to analytics and reporting. The value or positive impact of the use of the product stems from the fact that it degrees with other products like Office 365 and other Microsoft solutions. Microsoft Project Server has been in the market for a long time. Over a period of time, I have seen a lot of features introduced in Microsoft Project Server. I believe that the product still has room for improvement. I rate the overall tool an eight out of ten.

Valuable Features

"The solution offers excellent resource allocation tools and is flexible, particularly in portfolio management."
"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 ability to track a project's progress using Microsoft Project Server is the most valuable aspect. It depends, especially when managing multiple projects."

Room for Improvement

"Microsoft Project Server needs improvement in the integration of more tools and syncing of Blockly tools on time."
"We sometimes need support from the IT department for installing and deploying the Microsoft Project Server. It is not user-friendly, and users cannot install it themselves."
"Microsoft is going to integrate the Co-Pilot features into Microsoft Project. The AI feature is an additional feature. It can look at the plan and identify risks early on from any part of your project."

Pricing

"We have an enterprise agreement with Microsoft, and our licensing is based on the agreement."
"The product is expensive."
"A standard license is cheaper, but if you want more features, then there is a premium license or professional license."
