Microsoft Project Announcements: Agile / Report Packs

What an exciting week for Microsoft as Ignite surely did not disappoint.  The 1st major Microsoft Project Announcement in over 18 months and it couldn’t have come at better time.  With many clients teams needing a platform that can truly capture and effectively allows waterfall, agile, and hybrid projects run how they do best yet allowing the right level of project management resulting in the needed executive dashboards and visibility.  Wow that was a lot to take in, so what is actually coming and when?
