Book Description
Learn How to Manage Your Projects with SharePoint
Product Description
"If you are a project manager looking for a technology-based, easily implemented, and usable solution for project communications, document management, and general project organization, this book is for you!" -Susan Weese, PgMP, President and Founder, Rhyming Planet
Most companies don't understand SharePoint's power, and use it simply to share documents or spreadsheets. This hands-on book demonstrates how SharePoint can also help you organize and manage complex projects. With SharePoint for Project Management, you'll not only understand how to apply common and practical project management concepts in SharePoint, you'll learn how to build a Project Management Information System (PMIS), customized to your project, that can efficiently coordinate communication and collaboration among team members. With this book, you will:
- Learn to apply key project management techniques by leveraging SharePoint as a PMIS
- Track a case study that illustrates the circumstances and processes of an effective SharePoint PMIS
- Appropriately define access permissions for project stakeholders and team members
- Centralize project documents and keep track of document history with version control
- Automate project reporting mechanisms and generate on-demand status reports
- Track project schedules, control changes, and manage project risks
- Integrate project management tools such as Excel, Microsoft Project, PowerPoint, and Outlook
Each chapter includes activities that let you practice what you learn. Most SharePoint books are either too introductory (for end users), or too technical (for system administrators). SharePoint for Project Management is just what project managers like you need to learn how to harness the organizational abilities of this powerful software.

Format:Paperback
I bought this book as I am a project manager in a company that has just started to use SharePoint. As a newcomer to SharePoint the title of the book and my preview of the index seemed to match exactly what I wanted. The book quickly added to my knowledge and set seeds for further developing our site but without showing how to achieve those more advanced aims. After a while I found it getting a bit repetitive in describing in detail how to achieve things within the SharePoint menu system but I would not have had that knowledge if I had not read the book.
So on balance a very good book for the beginner who wants to stay within the realms of a normal user, not so good for anyone who wants to advance further and carry out more complex development of their site.

This book takes you through the basics and then on to the advance bits, and if you are e like me I spent every chapter adding to the templates and then playing . It is a great starter, if you want a simple PMIS then this is it, if you want a detailed PMIS then this gives you the starting block the gun and the track only you provide the bit you know it needs for your project or company. not al the videos on how to do it are on the site but still a top buy.
