Overall Satisfaction with DHTMLX
We have used the Gantt library from DHTMLX for task management in one of our projects. Initially we have used the trail version just to know what are the features it support and then we purchased the license. The business problem was the customer wants to crate tasks and assign them to various users, track the progress, optimize the tasks for better results and to manage the work load of the employees. we have tried few other options and finally come across DHTMLX Gantt library. It supports all the required features and multiple customization options. The user can create tasks, assign or reassign them and can track the progress. It has a resource view using which we can manage the workload of employees. Using this the manager or the person who is managing all the tasks will get a clear picture of the work/tasks on which the team is working. This can also be used as project management tool. DHTMLX has a brief documentation for each and every feature along with sample and source code. Their support team answered all our queries within less span of time.
- Brief documentation for each and every feature along with the sample and source code. Before deciding the feature we can actually try them using the samples.
- quick response from the support team. In documentation only there will be a comment section where we can ask our queries and the team responded quickly.
- vast list of features with various customization options.
- each feature has multiple events and methods using which we can easily control/manipulate the data.
- reasonable price
- trail version and free documentation
- user interface can be improved
- few customizations can be added
- if the data is huge say 1000+ then it will take sometime to render but that can be managed by proper use of events and methods.
- drag and drop of tasks
- link between different tasks
- creation of new tasks
- assigning the tasks to various users
- tracking the progress of the tasks
- using this tool we have delivered one project to our customer
- with bit of customization we optimized the tasks for better productivity
- no negative impacts
We have tried few other options also which are not exactly tools and they are not listed here. The brief documentation along with the features samples makes DHTMLX better when compared with other options.
