ConceptDraw PROJECT vs. Tabillo

Getting started - using the Gantt chart to enter tasks in any order and then using those tasks to initially define a MindMap to further explore alternative dependencies. The alternative works better when initiating a project with significant unknowns.

• It's well suited for simple data base applications: simple and fast to put together.
• It's not as well suited if an application requires more complex logics/queries.

• Integration with ConceptDraw Mindmap makes work breakdown very easy.
• We have cross-functional teams where team members often work on different projects in parallel. The multi project management feature has been a blessing over these years.
• Another import feature is the availability of many different predefined report generation templates that made it very easy to communicate different aspects of the project to different stakeholders.

• Extremely easy to learn
• Fast to create
• Easy to modify
• Build powerful applications with very little effort
• Absolutely no coding involved

• Non-intuitive keyboard shortcuts
• No advanced reporting or estimates

• Cannot modify the user interface (it's generated automatically)
• Does not support more advanced concepts

Online tutorials always available + chat, email and phone. Questions answered promptly and completely.

ConceptDraw has a much simpler licensing and pricing model. Perpetual license and ability to use in offline mode was an important criteria for us. Perfect bundle for small and medium business.

• Tabillo requires almost no knowledge to use compared to MS Access but cannot build complex applications.
• Tabillo & Salesforce are both simple to learn and use but Tabillo will allow other than sales-centric types of applications to be created (more flexible).

• Inexpensive way to present a professional project plan when needed
