Should I integrate my Microsoft Project Programme in Procore's web application or Procore Drive?

Background

If you currently manage the project's programme through Microsoft Project, you can integrate your programme with Procore's Programme tool.  When you integrate an Microsoft Project programme with its associated project in Procore, anyone with ‘Read only’ access and above on the project’s Programme tool will have read only access on the Microsoft Project programme directly in Procore.

Answer

In Procore, there are two ways to integrate your programme: through the Programme tool of Procore's web application and in the Programme tool of Procore Drive. We recommend integrating through Procore Drive rather than through Procore's web application. However, there are several circumstances that make each solution more efficient. 

Procore Drive
