Project Server Companion Products

http://project.mvps.org is one of the best sites on internet about MS Project Server information. The site has a list of companion products to Project Server. Some of the ones I like a lot are:
1- CoGenTex, Inc.

Project Reporter is an innovative tool that automatically generates web-based project status reports, using files created with Microsoft(R) Project(TM).Project Reporter makes it easy and cost-effective to share project information with team members and project stakeholders, in an accessible format and without requiring special-purpose software.Project Reporter is designed for ease of use, both by project administrators and end users. On a typical office Intranet, you can install Project Reporter and have your projects on the web in half an hour. Viewing reports is easy - simply use the interactive Gantt chart applet to navigate through a project, and follow the hyperlinks to find the information you need.
