Project Management Scope

Q: Which templates do I use to create a scope statement for a project?

A: Within the MPMM Project Management Life Cycle, the scope statement is created during the Initiation phase. The scope is discussed in the Business Case template, but it is in the “Terms of Reference” template that the scope statement is fully realized. To scope your project, you need to create a complete list of all of the activities and deliverables your project will produce. This complete list forms the total scope for your project.

Pricing for Project Software

Q: Which currency is the project software priced in?

A: All prices are quoted in US$. The reason is that the US is our primary target market, with more than 80% of customers currently purchasing from the USA. We do have customers in more than 200 countries, all using our project management process. These customers have bought the project software in US$ as well. Our payment gateway “Worldpay” manages currency conversions for us when you purchase.

Q: We have a firewall and it seems to prevent us from downloading your project software. What changes can we make to enable us to download your software successfully?

A: To download our project management software, you will need to take either of two actions. You can either change your firewall settings so that it allows you to download file attachments, zip files and executables. Or you can try and download the software from your PC at home.

Live Demos of Project Processes

Q: Do you have any live demos or conference calls for a presentation of this software?

A: At the moment, we do not provide live demos, due to the volume of clients we have accessing our website. We also believe that the free project management software trial is self-explanatory and that users will get a good feel for the product by downloading and using it for two weeks. If you are a corporate customer and you have specific questions that you need answered before considering purchasing your multiple user license, then let us know and we will arrange a conference call with a person from our project management support team to talk you through our project processes.

Keywords project software download speed

Q: Can you please tell me how long it takes to download this project management software?

A: The answer depends totally on your location and internet speed. If you are based in the USA for instance, then you will most likely be on a high speed internet connection and will therefore be able to download the free project software trial within just a few minutes. However if you are based in a more remote country like South Africa or New Zealand and are on a slower internet connection, then it could take you up to 60 minutes to download this project software. If you have a very slow download speed, then we recommend that you download overnight when internet bandwidth is usually at its fastest.

Microsoft Project Sharepoint Integration With Project Management Software

Q: Will your project management software integrate with Microsoft Sharepoint?

A: In the future we are planning on building systems integration with Microsoft Sharepoint. Immediately after we release the server version, we will make sure that this enterpsie edition integrates nicely with Sharepoint so that you can access our project management documentation within our project management software tool, or Sharepoint, as you wish.

Q: Do you provide a plug-in for software projects?

A: We are currently working on such a plug-in and will release it within the next 6 months.
