What's a good project management package where you can share files, notes, calendars, etc.

Anyone know one? We can buy Microsoft Project but I don't think it has web based tools, file sharing, etc. Does it?

For Microsoft Project you can get Microsoft Project Server. It has all of the web-based tools you'd expect for project management.

For file-sharing, that's a bit of a different situation. Why not just use Outlook, Lotus (*shudder*), or similar? Its purpose is to share calendars, notes (emails), etc.

Failing that, you could look to something like Groove. It does everything you require, but it has its share of problems. Microsoft recently acquired them as well, so Groove will make its way into a lot of the Office products and development platforms (.NET).

Groove is what I was going to mention. Far from perfect, but getting better, and with great integration into Outlook E-mail/Calendar which is handy for scheduling meetings and such.

dude, it looks like you need a collaboration software rather than proj mgmt one. you could always buy ms project server and sharepoint, like many people have mentioned above.
