Interactive Gantt Chart

If you've never used a Gantt to manage your projects, now is a good time to start. If you have, get ready for project management at the next level.

@task's new Gantt chart is built with a drag-and-drop interface that makes it easier than ever to build a project and manage it to completion. The Gantt is laid out over a spreadsheet-like task worksheet that is positioned to the left, with useful detail panes lined up on the right side. Advanced tools let you zoom in on any section, or click and drag in the calendar bar to adjust your scale. It's easier than ever to see exactly what you need to see.

Creating tasks is as simple as clicking and dragging in the timeline. Drag and drop from the right-hand menus to assign users, job roles, and even milestones. Tasks can be edited immediately by right clicking them in the Gantt, or by peeling back the Gantt pane and working directly in the worksheet. A preferences dialogue lets you customize both the Gantt and the worksheet to display your projects the way you want to see them. Also, @task's Gantt chart can be printed in any size.
