Microsoft Advances As A Leader In The PPM Market

The Forrester Wave™ Vendor Summary, Q4 2007

by Lewis Cardin

with Alex Cullen, Marc Cecere, Tim DeGennaro


Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Microsoft has a long and successful history with its MS Project project management software solution. Portfolio management requirements crept up on Microsoft: It responded by acquiring UMT — a premier portfolio management application — then moved its thick project management software to a thin workstation environment and deployed both the project and portfolio management solutions on top of its new Web-accessible server solution. The company's flagship enterprise project management (EPM) solution has been augmented by rich portfolio management software, extended reporting capabilities, and transparent scheduling.
