Gantt Chart Software That's Both Easy and Powerful
When considering Gantt chart software, consider this. Only SmartDraw lets you switch between two
different views of your project—Gantt chart and mind map. This makes it easy to brainstorm projects,
run meetings, manage deadlines, and create reports. Simply input your information and SmartDraw's built-in
automation does the rest.
Top reasons SmartDraw is the ideal Gantt chart software:
- Intelligent Formatting
Click simple commands and SmartDraw builds your Gantt chart for you, automatically. Add or remove tasks, change start or end dates, and SmartDraw realigns and arranges all the elements so that everything looks great.
- Different Views of the Same Data
SmartDraw allows you to view the data behind any project chart as a mind map for easy brainstorming or for a productive project status meetings. Simply choose the right view for the occasion with a single click. Changes made in any view will be automatically reflected in the other.
- Intuitive Controls
To help manage even the largest of project charts, SmartDraw's floating toolbar lets you control the level of detail you see and helps you scroll through large charts.
- Smarter Organization
With SmartDraw, you can group related tasks quickly using one-click controls and the length of the parent task will reflect the length of all the child tasks automatically.
- Built-In Accountability with Trello®
SmartDraw lets you assign tasks and track their progress using your Gantt chart, but you can also quickly convert any task into a card on your team's Trello® board with SmartDraw's powerful Trello® integration. Changes to the Trello® cards are reflected in your project chart the next time you open it. So when a team member marks a Trello® card as complete, the project manager will see this in the SmartDraw project chart. Likewise, changes to the project chart, like task due dates, are reflected in the Trello® card in real time.
- Powerful Customization
You can control how days and holidays are displayed on your chart with just a few clicks. You can choose the timeframe, holidays, and even choose which columns you want to display on your chart.
- Save Time with Custom Task Libraries
