Microsoft Project 2019

Build a work schedule, estimate effort and compare planned dates with progress. Microsoft Project 2019 is Microsoft's desktop project-scheduling program. Break the work into tasks, link dependencies, see the schedule as a Gantt chart and the critical path, assign resources and costs, level over-allocated people, save a baseline to compare plan with progress, and share status through the Timeline view and built-in reports. The 2019 release adds a drop-down for linking tasks, the Task Summary Name field, and labels and progress shown on timeline bars. Break the project into activities, estimate their duration and connect tasks through dependencies. Assign resources to show how people or other capacity contribute to the schedule. As work proceeds, compare progress with the plan and review how a changed task or resource assignment affects the dates around it. Task and resource views provide different perspectives on the same plan. The value of the schedule depends on the information entered: working calendars, dependencies and assignments all influence the result. The desktop planning workflow does not mean that Project Online, cloud collaboration or another organization’s server access is included. The Standard or Professional edition and its supported integrations should match the intended workflow. Microsoft support for Project 2019 ended on 14 October 2025, so it no longer receives security updates.
