BrightWork Deployment Options
BrightWork has a number of deployment options available for SharePoint On-Premises, so you can manage your projects and portfolios in the SharePoint On-Premises environment that meets your needs.
BrightWork On-Premises
BrightWork Platform
The full BrightWork Project and Portfolio Management (PPM) solution can be installed on one of the platform editions of SharePoint (any version):
- SharePoint 2019
- SharePoint 2016
- SharePoint 2013
The BrightWork solution cannot be installed on SharePoint Online in Office 365 due to limitations from Microsoft within the SharePoint Online environment.
To deploy BrightWork on your own SharePoint server or server farm, you need to purchase the BrightWork perpetual software licenses, annual support, and deployment services.
BrightWork Hosting
Private Cloud Environment
BrightWork can also be installed in a private cloud environment of your choice, which you maintain and manage (Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, or similar).
The private cloud environment will need to have one of the platform editions of SharePoint installed (any version):
- SharePoint 2019
- SharePoint 2016
- SharePoint 2013
To deploy BrightWork in your private cloud, you will need to have purchased BrightWork perpetual software licenses, annual support, and deployment services from BrightWork. In addition, you will need to subscribe to the private cloud environment.
See BrightWork On-Premises Pricing >>
If your organization has plans to move from on-premises to the cloud in the future, you can migrate your BrightWork perpetual licenses from your on-premises server to this cloud environment when ready. BrightWork can advise on the migration.
Dedicated Cloud Environment
We also offer BrightWork in a dedicated cloud environment on Microsoft Azure, hosted in either the United States or in Europe.
The dedicated cloud is managed and maintained by BrightWork hosting partner Project Hosts, and comes with 24/7 support as outlined in the hosting agreement.
To deploy BrightWork in a dedicated cloud environment, you can either deploy perpetual BrightWork licenses or subscribe. If you don’t already have BrightWork perpetual licenses, you will need to purchase licenses, annual support, and deployment services, in addition to the dedicated hosting environment.
See BrightWork Dedicated Pricing >>
The dedicated cloud is typically suited for groups the size of a Team License Pack or above.
BrightWork Online in a Shared Cloud
BrightWork Online is a cloud version of BrightWork, giving customers a shared hosted environment for project and portfolio management on SharePoint.
BrightWork Online is ideal for smaller groups (typically 5-50 users) or groups just starting out with their project and portfolio management on SharePoint.
BrightWork Online (hosted by Project Hosts) is a per user per month subscription service, which includes support. You will also need to purchase BrightWork deployment services.
