Bamboo Solutions, a Microsoft Gold-Certified Partner, is working to take advantage of the growth of the Redmond company's SharePoint platform. Project Management Central is a complex and professional application, created for collaborative project management and developed on the Microsoft SharePoint platform. Meant to offer customers interactive and professional workspaces, Project Management Central (PM Central) is also set up to boost the collaborative capabilities of SharePoint.

PM Central is designed to incorporate the most innovative and resourceful technologies and offer a workspace that can manipulate and handle even the most common and daily tasks that make project management what it is. With the help of this application, users will be able to monitor closely and much easier the state of multiple projects from a single, integrated dashboard in a professional environment.

This new app is designed to work on Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) and Windows SharePoint Services (WSS), especially for the increasing number of the SharePoint platform users.

Michael Tanner, the CEO of Bamboo Solutions, said, “PM Central demonstrates how Bamboo Solutions is bringing complete SharePoint applications to market by leveraging our leading library of Web Parts.” He also stated, “PM Central is the first of several customer-requested applications that will continue to enhance our customer’s SharePoint return on investment.”

Project Management Central is a solution developed to enhance the SharePoint users’ experience, using all its resources and at the same time Bamboo’s existing gallery of add-ons. It offers a complex array of options such as document management and collaboration, professional scheduling and complex communication tools as well as data aggregation utilities. Of course, the product is built to support task management, team communication, project portfolio management and issue management.

Project Management Central will include templates and pre-built websites as well as Bamboo’s most successful Web Parts, which can be easily and rapidly personalized for the SharePoint platform. The licenses for PM Central can be bought per server for an unlimited number of users, as part of Bamboo’s Project Management Suite, where customers can benefit from free product upgrades, 20 additional Web Parts, plus premium support.
