Microsoft Project for Dummies (لأجهزة الكمبيوتر/التقنية)

The Microsoft Project For Dummies book receives mixed reviews from customers. Some customers find the book to be useless, stating that Microsoft programs update too quickly for a hard print publication to remain relevant. They suggest that the Microsoft website offers better directions with step-by-step instructions and color graphics. Others find the book helpful as a refresher or reference for using Microsoft Project. One customer appreciates that it reminded them of the basics since they hadn't used the program in over a year. They also found it useful for learning about the features introduced since they last used the software. However, there are several criticisms of the book's organization and flow. Many customers feel that the author does not follow a logical order in explaining the concepts. They believe that topics like Calendars and Resources should be discussed before assigning tasks to a project. Some customers even compare it to a bomb disposal manual with confusing instructions. One suggestion for improvement is for the author to walk through the steps of building a sample project. This would help introduce the concepts in a better order and make the book more valuable to readers. The majority of the book focuses on a Waterfall style project, and dealing with Sprints could be left for the later parts of the book. Overall, the Microsoft Project For Dummies book may be helpful as a refresher or reference, but it may not be the best resource for learning the software due to its organization and flow issues.
