A hallmark of MS Project 2010 Standard is its very easy-to-use user interface. Likewise, your everyday routine will be significantly simplified from now on, because with the help of the scheduler you will gain a better overview of all the important things of the day. The system is extremely easy to operate because a clear structure is visible. It is created by the new ribbon. It is also possible to insert previously created lists from Excel or Word into Project without having to reformat them beforehand.

In manual scheduling, MS Project 2010 introduces a notable change. One of these changes is, for example, an adjustment to factors such as dependency relationships (= a relationship between two linked tasks. Linked by a relationship between their finish and start dates).

Furthermore, this Project version, as mentioned above, includes a new project calendar (the base calendar + the task calendar + the resource calendar + the project calendar).

In summary, you can now better manage the following functions:

• Integration of existing data (Word documents).
• Improved visualization options through an extended feature set
• Relate tasks and resources to each other
• Automatic warning system as soon as a timing or resource-related conflict occurs
