Microsoft Project and Macs

So what is the official MSFT response to Microsoft Project and Macs compatibility?  When we asked Microsoft:  Can you use Project Online/Project Server and Project Pro with a Mac?  The short answer was Macs can use the complete web functionality of Project Online.  Detailed Project Schedulers/Project Managers will need to access to Project Professional in parallels or another vm emulator.

If you would like more details, check out these links on the subject.

  1. Project Online Project Web App – the web interface will work on a Mac. For supported browsers see:  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc263526(v=office.15).aspx (Project Server 2013 / Project Online supports the same browsers as SharePoint 2013).
  2. Project Pro will not install on a Mac.
