A Month in Software (01-05-2015)

I'll tell you that the workloads at work just don't seem to be getting any lighter. Hell I'm just going to have to push through and make sure to get these Month in Software articles out at a reasonable time otherwise it's just not worth the hassle.

Gantter Project is a free web-based application that integrates with Google Drive allowing you to create and manage Gantt charts while collaborating with colleague in real-time. You can think of it as a web-based Microsoft Project. It lets you import Microsoft Project files, which could prove to be helpful if your team is collaborating with others still using Microsoft Project on the desktop.

I have used this application and recommend it highly for teams who want to take project management to the web but still want to use a gantt chart because it is familiar. It has the ability not only to import Microsoft Project files but to also export any project management data to the Microsoft Project file format.

  • Pros: Free. Google Drive and Hangouts Integration, Web Driven.
  • Cons: Still in beta mode, buggy at times.
  • Available editions: Gantter for smartapp.com, for Google Drive, for Google Apps, For Desktop
  • Used for: All Operating Systems.
  • Installation: Installation is based on the edition chosen. All installation is web-based dependant on host.
