Microsoft Project Desktop is still a popular software!
If you are using any of these products, this book is for you:
- Microsoft Project Standard 2021 or 2024
- Microsoft Project Professional 2021 or 2024
- Microsoft Project Online Desktop Client (subscription version)
- Earlier versions (Microsoft Project 2010 through 2019) – feature differences are summarized in Chapter 1
Although Microsoft has announced they are retiring Project Online, this does not impact the desktop client software. In fact, the desktop client software is still needed for companies who are using Project Server. (Refer to Appendix C for a sample solution using Project Server).
Microsoft Project Desktop has been around for over 40 years and continues to be the most robust scheduling tool available for managing projects!
