The Appie Awards…
By blurg64
Last night at the SharePoint Conference in Las Vegas, Microsoft announced the winners of the ‘Appies’, recognising the best apps in the Microsoft Office and SharePoint stores. The awards highlighted a number of great apps covering SharePoint, Office and Project, including:
- Campagna and Schott for their CS Task Board app, a runner up in the Best UI award;
- CPS’s Project Task Auditor, winning the Most Business Value award for Project client apps; and
- Sensei’s Project Dashboard, winning the Most Interesting Scenario, Project category.
Personally, whilst I didn’t get a chance to enter any of my existing, or new apps into the awards, I was really excited that Nintex (who I work for in my day job) won three categories including Most Interesting Scenario for SharePoint, Most Downloaded SharePoint app & the People’s Choice for Nintex Workflow for Office 365 and runner up in two categories for Nintex Forms for Office 365 🙂
So given that there are so many great apps out there in the store, I thought this would be a good time to do some mini reviews of the apps for Project Server, so over the coming weeks will be diving into a few of them in a bit more detail, including:
- UMT 360’s Workflow Visualization App
- Fluent Pro’s EPM Pulse for Project Online
- Near Baseline’s Bulk Edit
- and a few others….
Stay tuned 🙂
