As it is the Microsoft platform, program and project-relevant information that crosses Microsoft, for example, MS Project, PowerPoint, Excel, can perceive to be "all in one place" for cross-talk/usage and application, and for cross-function teams' access. It also assists with more convenient organization across programs within the portofolio, for example, the project plans "look and feel" the same for all programs! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Microsoft Project Server? The platform in some ways is quite complex and required IT support on configuration and subsequent maintenance. The price is steep as our company is charged monthly one license per user or per laptop. It is mentioned that this will be discontinued by September 2026, which is just a little short of one year from now! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Microsoft Project Server solving and how is that benefiting you? Microsoft Project server is beneficial for my program management team to harmonize the "use and feel" across programs, and we have this on the "cloud" so multiple users can have access at the same time.
