We use Project Pro 2010 and are implementing Server. I have referenced the Microsoft site extensively for background – they have lots of white papers and a whole series of videos on the product.

Why are we implementing Server?

  • Enterprise resource management, including the ability to manage current workload and plan for future capacity
  • Project prioritization, the ability to select projects based on a defined and repeatable process
  • Metrics and reports at the project, program and portfolio levels for different audiences (using third party tool for some of this)
  • Forces us to improve our basic project management capability
  • Standard toolset for all our project managers

Project Server is a big investment and a lot of work to implement. You are right to weigh the pros and cons to see whether the system is right for you.
