Learn How Project 2013 Can Be Integrated With Social Media In Your Organization.

BSA is a midsized technology firm that provides financial management software mainly for the public sector. They are growing rapidly and were looking for a better way to manage their implementation projects and their business at a portfolio level.

As part of their solution they wanted to ensure that their clients had remote access to view their project status without having to set up individual accounts for each client.

Pcubed implemented Project 2013 and integrated it with social media access by logging into a PWA using an authentication provider other than Windows Active Directory, such as social sites like Windows Live ID, Gmail, Facebook, Yahoo, and Twitter. Technology used SharePoint, Project Server 2013 and Microsoft Project 2013.
