Microsoft Project 2010 delivers powerful,
visually enhanced ways to effectively manage a wide range of projects
and programs. From meeting crucial deadlines to selecting the right
resources and empowering your teams, Project 2010 offers easier and
more intuitive experiences to help you simply be more productive and
realize amazing results.
- Familiar and intuitive:
The Ribbon makes finding and using your favorite tools simpler with
new graphical menus and a familiar experience to help you easily
create and manage projects. Tooltips and contextual guidance provide
information and shortcuts so you can accomplish more in less time. In
the new Microsoft® Office Backstage™ view, simply save, share, print,
or publish your projects from one location.
- Save time and effort:
Save time and effort with familiar and essential functions like text
wrapping, filtering, auto-complete, scroll and zoom, and more. Insert
new columns on the fly—data types are readily identified so that you
can quickly and effectively organize and analyze details. Quickly
share schedule details through enhanced copy-and-paste, and retain key
formatting between Project 2010 and other Microsoft Office
applications.
- Flexible and powerful:
User-controlled scheduling puts you in control and brings together
the flexibility and ease of use of a tool like Microsoft Excel® 2010
and the power of the Project 2010 scheduling engine. Create project
schedules at the level of detail that’s right for your project. Work
with summary data initially or shift to a more detailed approach when
it’s convenient. Place notes as reminders of where additional schedule
information is needed, or simply add information as it becomes
available.
- Easier to see and share:With a completely
new and visually enhanced timeline view, you’ll have a clearer view of
tasks, milestones, and phases. Newly expanded color palettes and text
effects help you make every timeline and plan look their best—and help
you to swiftly see and share important dates and deliverables.
- Control and deliver:Quickly compare budget
versus actual versus forecasted values to measure an initiative's
progress with the flexibility of setting multiple baselines. Create
high-level time-phased budgets with user-defined categories for costs
and labor. Validate budgets against bottom-up estimates built by using
labor, material, and cost resources. Control project costs by
comparing budgets to completed tasks and forecasted totals. Use
built-in earned-value metrics for predictive analysis and integrated
performance management.
- Enhance performance:Use the 64-bit options of
Project 2010 to enhance performance and support very large projects
and programs. Project Standard 2010 and Project Professional 2010 are
offered in 32-bit and 64-bit options to support a diverse range of
project types and sizes. 64-bit options take advantage of the expanded
memory and optimized capabilities of the latest processors and of the
64-bit versions of Windows 7 and Windows Vista. 64-bit Project
Professional 2010 also offers enhanced performance and handles
extremely large project files with ease when connected to Project
Server 2010
