Project Management, Refined for Microsoft 365.

Designed to simplify both daily operations and complex project timelines, it integrates seamlessly with SharePoint, Microsoft Planner, and Microsoft Teams.

From interactive Gantt charts and role-based access to real-time effort variance reports, every feature is designed to help teams work faster, smarter, and more transparently. 

With support for custom fields and hour approvals, the platform adapts easily to internal task management and client project delivery. 

Stay ahead with dynamic dashboards and reports that give managers the real-time visibility they need to make informed decisions and take timely action.

Why Project Works Outperforms Conventional Task Tools

1.Live Project Tracking, Not Static Templates

Unlike Excel-based trackers or printed schedules, Project Works delivers real-time updates on tasks, timelines, and progress — ensuring you always act on the latest data.

2.Visual Planning with Gantt Intelligence

Traditional tools lack visualization. Project Work’s interactive Gantt charts let teams visualize dependencies, adjust schedules by drag-and-drop, and track effort in context — all within a few clicks.

3.Built-In Automation, Less Manual Overhead

Stop updating spreadsheets or chasing approvals. With hour tracking, bulk approvals, and Power Automate integration, Project Works cuts repetitive tasks and keeps your team focused on execution.

4.Designed for Microsoft 365, Not Against It

No need for external logins or disconnected systems. Project Works natively inside Microsoft Teams, Planner, SharePoint, and Outlook, delivering power without disruption.
