Functions of MS Project 2021 at a glance
Microsoft Project 2021 is a project management tool that optimally supports you in the planning, implementation and monitoring of projects of all types and sizes. The programme allows you to create and manage resources (employees, machines, rooms, etc.) that are used to complete tasks and processes. For example, personal and shared calendars are available for this purpose, allowing you to keep track of the attendance and absence times of all project participants at all times.
Numerous templates facilitate the creation and management of projects as well as reporting. Generate dynamic reports at the touch of a button in which you can visualise the progress of the project in any level of detail. These can be displayed on the screen or saved as a document, e.g. distributed to all participants by email.
In a comparison of MS Project 2021 vs. 2019, the latest version also offers automatic planning systems and "what-if" scenarios to simulate the effects of various factors on the course of the project. The templates provided have also been significantly expanded, offering even more flexibility and time savings.
You can familiarise yourself with the numerous functions of the project management solution with an MS Project 2021 tutorial (as a pdf file or in the form of instructional videos). Microsoft has also developed more than one MS Project 2021 tutorial and makes these tutorials available online free of charge.
