Microsoft Project 2013 Step by Step

I have used the Microsoft "Step by Step" series books throughout my career, and they are best for gaining a complete 10,000 foot view of a particular application. If you are already familiar with an app, then this is not the resource you want to start off with. I had not used Microsoft Project since Project 2007, and I hadn't used it that much in my job anyway so I bought this to get me up to speed on the interface changes, new features, etc. The best thing about Step by Step books is that they provide practice files and EXACT instructions so you know that you are using the application correctly. Great series. I highly recommend it for beginners and intermediate users who want a good solid understanding of an app. For a deeper dive on individual aspects of the app, I would choose another resource like "Project Unleashed", etc.

Wonderful book for the beginner. It comes with practice files that go along with the book. It walks you through just like the title step by step. Many books proclaim that, but expect you to "know" some things already. This book teaches the things to "know"1

Not that I loved reading this book, but it's really well written. The pictures are helpful, and it's step by step really really helps with that complicated MS project. Now, here's the funny thing, this was purchased for school and I learned a lot, but NO ONE IN THE BUSINESS USES the MS Project Management tool. Not even people at Microsoft. I know how to use this tool because of this book better than the people who work for MS! Hey, buy this book, learn something, but don't expect anyone in PM to ever use this product. Hey Maybe I'm wrong. No worries either way. Great Book - Boring Read (I mean REALLY BORING READ) but super useful/helpful. Oh and when I say boring, I mean BORING! As in, I fell asleep reading the same sentence over and over and over again and I read the whole book. Totally keeping this though, because MS project is the most complicated horrible tool out there. Maybe MS project would be great for projects that takes years and years and years to complete. That I get... Great Book considering this is not a tool (MS Project) I enjoyed using.

Good book. Not too basic and not too advanced. Demonstrates multiple ways of doing same tasks, so you can work the way that suites you best. Excellent example files.

For a basic introduction book, it was incredibly easy to follow. Great for a reference when you are just getting started.

Though content was good (only reason it received 3 stars), the print quality was horrible (worth 1 star because there was ink on the page). Most of the screen captures were worthless. Everything looked as if it was printed in fast draft on recycled paper. First time I've ever returned a book because of quality. Normally Microsoft does a great job.

You'll love this book. New example, same simple. The Step by Step serie is really amazing. Easy to read and study.

As with most tutorial resources, the user is required to have a basic understanding of: (a) computer navigation; (b) framework (what actives are to be performed); (c) sequence (when) of activities to be performed; (d) what (or who) resources to assign to the activities; and (d) at what level of grandularity to plan said activities (& to measure performance). In short, no one resource can answer all questions to the satisfaction of all users. Be prepared to invest time to master the content of this resource.

The book arrived timely and in excellent condition. The content and structure of this book is superb. I highly recommend it to any anybody who wants to learn the tricks of Project Management using MS Project 2013.

Muito bom ! Atendeu minhas expectativas de preparo para certificação Microsoft. Também ajudou a clarificar alguns conceitos, relatórios e configurações.

Having had no previous experience of Project I found this book to be extremely clear and helpful, with topics introduced and explained in a straightforward manner.

Thanks, for my firts aproach to the program it's perfect. Also the pdf format can be downloaded. Best regards. Mirko Mugione
