Lotus Domino & Office Project Server 2003

Yannis Pantzis

Hello.

We have a customer that is interested in deploying Office Project Server
2003 internally. Their collaboration platform is based on Lotus Domino. None
of the clients uses Microsoft Office (instead they use the Domino Client).
Their domain is based on Windows NT but they are thinking of migrating to
Active Directory.

I am trying to find out whether a configuration such as this will have any
limitations to the overall functionality of Project Server (especially about
the Domino part).

Any suggestion / experience from similar scenarios is welcome.

Yannis:

If the company is not using Outlook, then they can't take advantage of
Outlook-specific features, but shouldn't lose any other functionality. They
do use Microsoft Office, don't they?

Hi Gary.

First of all, thanks for your reply.

Actually, they are NOT using Microsoft Office, all their messaging /
collaboration infrastructure is based on Lotus Notes and the Domino client.
According to some research I did on Technet, Exchange Server is not required
for project-related e-mail (any SMTP server should do) and the only thing
they will miss is that the users will not be able of maintaining Calendar and
Tasks from within Outlook (however they should be accessible from the Project
Web Access). I'd like to know if you have any more insight on this.

Gary,

I believe you are referring to the:
1. Resource Availability and Portfolio Analyzer (as per the sysreqs)
2. "Edit in Datasheet" / InfoPath options

Are there anything more?

Stuff like that,

All drag and drop functionality in the Analyzer with out real-time OWCs
Anything else that calls OWC functionality
