Peter Ward gave a presentation on using Microsoft SharePoint for project management 2.0. He discussed how SharePoint allows for more structured information sharing and tracking of projects through features like document libraries, workflows, issue tracking, and integration with Outlook. He provided examples of how SharePoint addressed common pain points for various roles like spending too much time following up on issues or not having up-to-date project status. Implementing SharePoint correctly can save time and improve performance for teams and clients.
