Features[edit]
Ganttproject
Comparing to other full-fledged project management software, one could say that GanttProject is designed considering the KISS principle.
It features most basic project management functions like a Gantt chart for project scheduling of tasks, and doing resource management using resource load charts. It can only handle days not hours. It does not have features like cash flow, message and document control. It has a number of reporting options (MS Project, HTML, PDF, spreadsheets).[2]
The major features include:
- Create Work Breakdown Structure
- Task Hierarchy and Dependencies
- Resource Load Chart
- Baselines saving and comparing
- Generation of PERT Chart
- PDF and HTML Reports
- MS Project import/export with file format MPX (*.mpx) and MSPDI (*.xml) (XML-based data interchange format since Microsoft Project 2002)
- Exchange data with spreadsheet applications via CSV and Excel formats
- WebDAV based groupwork
- Project file format is XML
- Vacation and Holidays management
- Available in more than 20 languages
