Microsoft Project is a powerful Project Management software platform which is used in a variety of industries including construction, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, government, financial services and health care. Known as the world’s most popular project management software, it was specifically designed to provide project managers with the ability to have more control over their: resources, tracking, milestones, budgets, and workloads.
The software enables users to drill down into the details of a project and really ensure that they are under budget.
MS Project is designed to assist project managers in setting realistic goals for project teams and customers. It does this by creating schedules, assigning and distributing resources to tasks and managing budgets. Microsoft Project creates critical path schedules that can be resource leveled and visualized in a Gantt chart or various reports.
