Gantter Reviews
Pros
For a pretty inexpensive software, there are many features that can enable you to develop a thoughtful and successful schedule. I like that you can display task names on the gantt chart view.
The software is accessible anytime, any place. My past students have stated how easy it is to use and they like it because they use Google Chrome already and like that it is just a Google Add-On.
I loved how Gantter looks and feels just like Google, which made it so easy for me to learn how to use and store all of my files.
I especially like how it integrates with Goggle Docs for multi-user functionality. The you-tube tutorials are outstanding and worth checking out.
Cons
But few days ago, so in 2023 a year after, they have charged my credit card again. And even when I login I still see there is no subscription.
The software deletes tasks as I type. I have contacted chat, no reply (48 hours), I have contacted via support ticket (no reply), and I have tried calling no answer.
This company charged me for an entire year plan after I was inactive for almost 11 months the previous year. This place is a scam, no customer service dept. to call and discuss.
But sometimes the request hasn't followed through and by the time my students visit Gantter again to update their SAT criterion, they've lost access.
"Excellent tool for Project Management! "
Pros: I was first exposed to this software in a Project Management course I took in college years ago. I loved how Gantter looks and feels just like Google, which made it so easy for me to learn how to use and store all of my files. It also imports Microsoft Project files which is a HUGE benefit for me. I became so well acquainted with the software that I decided to purchase my own subscription of Gantter when I began my career. Not to mention its low cost for a month is very affordable in comparison to similar software I looked into. Today, as a supervisor in the Hospitality Industry I use Gantter for all of my project management needs. I have introduced the software to co-workers who later adopted Gantter as well
Cons: I wish that there was a mobile edition available at this time, but I have been told that this will be released later in the year. That would be really cool if that's the case
"One of the easiest ways to make a Gantt Chart in GSuite"
Overall: This used to be the only way to make a gantt chart on Gsuite besides using Google Sheets manually. I used to use this all the time for projects and share out when this was free. Not that it costs money per user, our company went back to using Google Sheets manually or Gantt Project. The Web UI is great and you can share and export in many different ways or as a webpage which is really helpful.
Pros: This software used to be fully free. There are a lot of integrations and the UI looks clean and easy to get going. The webpage sharing feature is great as is the other export methods.
Cons: Now that this costs money, I am less inclined to use it. Also, sometimes the dependencies and moving things around takes a while to get used to, but that is Gantters in general.
"Major usability problems"
Overall: Learned more about the alternatives in project management software.
Pros: Has all the needed features in an easy-to-understand configuration. Gantt chart, resource tracking, task lists all straightforward and as you'd expect coming from any kind of traditional project management software.
Cons: Major user interface and usability issues, poor support. I struggled with heaps of unnecessary mouse clicks required to perform some operations (or at least unintuitive alternatives that I never discovered). Most grating was that scrolling was completely messed up (on my Mac OSX 10.10.5 with either Chrome or Safari). Scrolling in the main display jittered up and down at random, and trying to scroll back and forth on the Gantt timeline also caused vertical scrolling in the tasks---completely unusable. Trying to find support for these issues also led down infinite rabbit holes of trying to submit a ticket and being told I have no tickets.
"Good value for low price"
Pros: For a pretty inexpensive software, there are many features that can enable you to develop a thoughtful and successful schedule. I like that you can display task names on the gantt chart view. Additionally, the software operates quickly, like a google sheet, other softwares take a few seconds to comprehend inputs which can slow down productivity.
Cons: The customer support needs some work, there is no chat feature and when you submit a request ticket, the support does not directly answer your question, to my knowledge there is no way to call for support. They refer you to watch user guide videos that are no specific to your question.
Vendor Response
"Gantter works great for teaching project management!"
Overall: In teaching project management at a University, it is difficult to find a product that all students can use easily and freely to allow learning to happen successfully. Gantter provides all the benefits of the more expensive project management suites with much easier use for everyone.
Pros: It is platform independent and all in the cloud. It is very collaborative and allows quick understanding of managing a project.
Cons: Occasionally people have issues installing the first time into their google accounts.
