Project planning provides its greatest value when
* It is performed on a regular basis (especially when the project is in its critical stage)
* Your team members are well-informed of the current plan
So what you need is
* Easy planning updates
* A clearly readable chart for you and your team members
* Clarity among all team members - the knowledge of 'who works on what'
Complex project planning tools seem to Focus a lot on dependencies and milestones. They tend to forget the most valuable part of a project, people (that's why they call them 'resources' anyway).
In minutes Teamwork Planner answers the most important question you have: what will be my milestones given the tasks ahead and the team available - nothing more, nothing less.
You will be Amazed how to the point this is.
Ever tried using a spreadsheet for the same purpose? We have seen many people doing this because they got lost in the complexity of general purpose planning tools. Teamwork Planner does the job better.
Given the intuitive interface of Teamwork Planner you will create a Gantt chart that really makes sense, print it out easily, and share it with your people. It just immediately does what you want it to do. Think about the time you will save when you have to update it for your next progress meeting.
Are you also done with those gray-Bar Charts that you have to study to understand?
Well, try it for yourself. Make up your own mind!
