I have had experience with GanttPRO for over 1 year. The software has collaborated to monitor and analyze the projects and activities prepared by employees in each area. The main function of the day-to-day tool is to record activities related to projects and ensure that the deadline is being met. Our IT department segmented into knowledge areas and each group records its activities in this section and at the end of each month we generate reports to analyze statistics and earnings. GanttPRO has everything we need for project management in one tool.
  • Intuitive and user-friendly management interface.
  • Possibility of working in groups and recording activities.
  • Advanced reporting with statistics.
  • Management of projects and tasks, individually and in groups.
  • Version control.
  • The mobile version needs improvement.
The probability of recommending GanttPRO software to other colleagues is very high because it is a super complete tool to help with project management. All companies need software to do this internal control. GanttPRO is a very cheap value for all the management and reporting features it has. In the software we have version control. simultaneous editing with other contributors, priorities, progress levels, annotations, and more.

I've used GanttPRO for both commercial and academic projects in pharma, life sciences, consumer goods, and other sectors for projects ranging from $100K (departmental) to $11M (enterprise). It has all the critical functions needed for complex projects without the bloat of tools like MS Project. As a pure web-based tool, it's ideal for WFH and geographically disbursed teams. It includes a complete WBS with custom fields, Gantt and Kanban views, so it's suitable for both Agile and hybrid methodologies. The UI is flexible, extremely responsive and accurate (drag n drop task restructuring is easy). Full support for scheduling, resource management and budgeting. My decision to go with GanttPRO was based on its clean and consistent architecture - unlike most PM tools that have limited WBS hierarchies, drag n drop and user customization, it's obvious that GanttPRO has a scalable architecture that will support ongoing enhancements.
  • Flexible WBS Hierarchies
  • Drag and Drop Task Management
  • Version Control - ability to restore task-specific changes
  • Custom Fields
  • Add - Task Type (fixed units, work or duration)
  • Add - more OOTB reporting
Projects are a lot easier to set up with GanttPRO than most tools that support a WBS, so although I've used GanttPRO for very simple projects, it's great for projects with complex WBS' and/or dynamic backlogs (using Agile methodologies). I've used it for long-running projects with multiple phases, where I needed to set up high-level plans for downstream phases (for budgeting) that got updated and modified based on outcomes from upstream phases.

GanttPRO was super easy to use. I used it for a project and loved it very much. It kept track of every task I had. It also gave me the ability to see how long each task would take me based on the hours I was working. It has a great visual and offered many options to change the look. You can see the weekly, daily, monthly break-downs of each and every one of your tasks. It's super user friendly and great for beginners. This was the first time I had used a Gantt Chart, and it was amazing. I love GanttPro and highly recommend it.
  • Easy to use
  • Lots of features
  • Not fully free
GanttPRO is well suited for visual representation of your tasks.

Managing a small team can prove to be more challenging than expected. Our team was looking for a more intuitive software to make a Gantt chart to organize our schedule and some colleagues recommended GanttPRO to us as they were using it for their team. When I started, I found the tool incredibly easy to pick up and was able to apply our schedule to it straight away. It was also efficient at making modifications on-the-go. GanttPRO is being used by our project manager for our team of four. It greatly helps us schedule and manage our time as well as plan ahead for the future.
  • Organize tasks into categories and subsections. While this is applicable to most task-tracking software, our team had never seen one for Gantt chart software before.
  • Easy to pick up and intuitive to use. I used to loathe making Gantt charts because they just took so long and were incredibly tedious with an unintuitive interface. It totally ruined the experience for me. As a first time user of GanttPRO, I found it heaps easier to learn and use than other software.
  • With GanttPRO, it's super easy to make changes on the fly. Life always throws unforeseen circumstances at any team; luckily, it's really easy to make changes with the software and account for situations.
  • I'm not sure if this already exists, but being able to see the full chart without exporting it would be nice.
  • More colour options to differentiate roles and tasks would be great! A lot of the current colours are fairly similar (lots of greens and blues) and can be hard to tell apart for some people.
  • Allowing some tasks to happen in tandem; allowing the arrows to go backward. For example, I tried to connect one task to another to show that they are related and the software would not let that happen because one task started in the middle of the other.
Where GanttPRO is well suited:
  • Managing a small team
  • Independent game development team
  • Tracking tasks
  • Scheduling for a short period of time
  • Student teams
  • Class assignments
Where GanttPRO is less appropriate:
  • Larger teams
  • Projects spanning over five years
  • Small projects less than a week-long

I am currently a student taking an MIS course. We have a team of 5 people and needed to use a project management tool for an assignment. We compared and tried out a few but GannttPRO was so easy to use and provided all the necessary tools to help keep our project on track. Adding task, assigning/unassigning resources and even exporting was a breeze! In addition, I love how you change the view with a click of a button and it also gives you tips along the way. Being a new user, I was surprised at how user-friendly the tool was. I would definitely recommend it and I look forward to using it for future projects.
  • Usability
  • User-friendly
  • Cost-effective
  • Export without the watermark in trial mode.
In my case, I use it for school but can also see myself using it for work.

It's been very helpful because it has many more properties and abilities than my version of Excel. The project I'm working on now is over 120 line items and in Excel, it is just information overload. In GanttPRO, the same data is much more manageable and easier to read and interact with. GanttPRO is easy to learn and use and I would highly recommend it to someone who wants to do more than what Excel has to offer.
  • Easy to learn and use
  • Very manageable with lots of data
  • Easy to read
  • I'd like to be able to edit the points & subpoints easier. Those aren't the easiest to navigate
  • I wish it was free to anyone (at a basic level) but I understand why it's not!
It's well suited for people who have a lot of data to sort through (or a long timeline). Less appropriate for Gantt charts that only have a few line items. It's just as easy to input those kinds of charts into Excel.

During my thesis, I chose to work with GanttPRO because I liked using it during my student years. It has useful features such as a track changes feature to recover from unwanted changes, which makes it accessible to beginners. The listing of tasks is programmed in a convenient way that comes naturally to people, which makes making a Gantt chart a simple and quick task. Personally, I like to review tasks from the planning in an activity list, which GanttPRO provides as an activity board!

Furthermore, I believe the software can be used in larger groups conveniently since it has an option to assign tasks to people.

  • Easy to understand interface makes using the software accessible to a large body of people.
  • Exporting to PDF is done very well and can come useful when adding the planning as an appendix.
  • Has track changes feature to never get lost.
  • The software is slow which makes it tedious at times.
During my thesis the program was valuable. I do not want to spend too much time in implementing deadlines and project tasks into a Gantt chart, and GanttPRO is a quick web tool for this. During my student times, I did use the software a multitude of times to organize a project between 16 people. Everybody that did not have any direct need to access the planning had the online read-only version.

I am a student at The University of California Davis studying Mechanical Engineering. Our Senior Design Class requires us to use a Gantt Chart so that we stay on task with our project. Every year there are students who never finish their projects because they couldn't stay on a schedule. I have been lightly exposed to the features that GanttPRO offers, but they are perfect for our needs for the next 12 weeks. I love how the product gives you the ability to assign tasks to people in the group, create subtasks for the topic, and move around tasks with ease. I look forward to using GanntPRO more in the future with this project and my 1st job after graduation. I will be sure to share this software with other UC Davis students.
  • GanttPRO is easy to use for beginners
  • GanttPRO is visually appealing and fast
  • GanttPRO is perfect for a small team to use for projects
  • GanttPRO doesn't allow to add a subtask to the subtask taking away customization and flexibility for different use cases
  • GanttPRO extends the tasks to the date of the subtask, so if the task as a whole takes longer than the subtask then you need to state it as such
  • GanttPRO doesn't let you assign the materials to the tasks
As a Mechanical Engineering student at The University of California Davis, the GanttPRO is perfect for our application in our senior design class. We were taught how to use the Gantt chart during lecture and needed to find a way to create one to use for our senior design project. We are designing a device that will disperse pollen underneath a drone as to autonomously pollenate a field of crops. Our hope is that GanttPRO will be our backbone tool so we can accomplish our project.
