Is there a Gantt chart in novamind 5?

(1/1)

emonterog:
Just giving a try with NM5 to plan a project and realize I don't see a gantt chart displaying and just a summary of the task I have assigned. Am I looking in the wrong place or NM5 does not have this feature?
By the way I have version Platinum.

Thanks for any replies,
Erick

Hi Erick,

NM5 can interact with project management SW, e.g. MS Project. You can use NM to evaluate your tasks and activities, group them. But NM5 is not a project management SW and creating Gant Charts. Through the planing process you can load into MS Project calculating durations, see dependencies, workload of people, etc. You can load the results back into NM and detail tasks.

So from my personnel point of view and experience you can use Mindmaps to create first WBS, the rest I do in project management SW.

Thanks Olaf,
This is the first time I use the sorfware for planning a project and I remember I saw a sort of gantt chart displaying on this software but as you explain probably I was confuse.

Regards,

Erick

If you use the Mac version of NM5, the interaction with Merlin project management software on the Mac seems a bit tighter than between NM5 Win and MSP. But for any significant project planning, complex [SF, lagged] dependencies, etc I think it's best to work in a full PM package. I use NM5 for overall organization of the project, with links to the detailed project schedule, timelines, etc from MSProject or Merlin.
