Looking for several companies / consultants to test FluentPro Project Migrator - bulk MPP migration software for Project Server 2010

We've completed development cycle and are very close to complete internal testing cycle for FluentPro Project Migrator software that allows to migrate projects (MPP files) from other EPM systems (Attask, Daptiv, EPM Live - any system that can save to MPP) and from any Project Server 2010 PWA instance (in case of PWA - we support project-level and task-level metadata migration as well) into Project Server 2010 PWA.

We are looking for 5 to 10 companies to be a first beta-testing users. In return for the participation in test and feedback, you will receive one license at no cost right after public release (March 2012 at Microsoft Project Conference 2012 ).

Product is implemented as add-in for Project Professional 2010.

Please send your contacts to beta (at) fluentpro.com with potential problem / task that you have and after review we will send you copy of software installation package and links to several video on how to use the software.

We plan to distribute version on March 1, 2012. There will be 2 versions - Lite with some limitations and Pro without any limitations. Product will be distributed independently and as part of FluentBooks Pro package.

Cloud. When Project Server and SharePoint will be there?

Found interesting article - http://www.forbes.com/sites/joemckendrick/2011/12/14/10-ways-cloud-computing-will-disrupt-our-businesses-in-2012/

I was surprised by "cloud first" approach for government. This is extremely good push for the cloud companies and if government goes to cloud - big companies will follow as well into both private and public clouds, and we will see decreasing number of on-premise deployments. The problem I see is that every company uses "cloud" as they understand it..and often it is just a marketing buzz for the "reshaped" old infrastructure.

In our practice - we tired of on-premise deployments, permissions, limited access, non-standardized configuration and troubleshooting all that. We want to go to some centralized and standardized model - it will make our life easier and products more stable.

Microsoft goes there with Office365. The question is - when the full versions of Project Server and SharePoint will be cloud-enabled? Will happen? And another big question - what would be the limitations for the products and platform? (current SharePoint in Office 365 is ugly and very limited). Time will show...
