  • Not allowing end users to create and define calendars basically makes Project for web useless for large enterprises, whose admins could be left with hundreds or thousands of requests to create and modify calendars.

     

    Maybe you guys intend for Project to be only for small businesses, and I can see it being great for that. For me in a company of over 30,000 people? Not very helpful.

    OnePlan has worked closely with Microsoft to advance the “Project Re-imagined” vision. We welcome the move to the Power Platform as it unlocks the ability to engage other business processes, brings core PPM capabilities such as issues and risks to the forefront and provides a new modern user experience consistent with other Microsoft solutions, namely CRM.

    Project for the web fills a specific role and we are confident it will evolve over time to include more sophisticated features. That said, there are certainly use cases to continue using MS Project and other scenarios where tight integration with AzureDevOps or JIRA are needed.

    OnePlan has invested in creating a solution, built in Power Apps that extends the Microsoft vision to include these other integration points enabling tool of choice within your organization. Our solution also enables resource management, financial management, strategic alignment and portfolio planning and prioritization. Finally, we have included the ability to capture status on work items and a timesheet capability for those needing to capture actuals.
