Mashable! Tom’s Planner (Web-Based Project Management)

Name: Tom”s Planner

Quick Pitch: Tom”s Planner allows you to create and share Gantt Charts online with drag-and-drop simplicity.

Genius Idea: Project management software is useful for everyone — from the giant software development company trying to make a launch date to a bride planning her wedding. Still, it”s often expensive and complicated. Desktop software Microsoft Project is deep and feature-rich, but it”s mired in abstraction and user-unfriendliness. That”s what Tom of Tom”s Planner would argue, anyway, and that”s why he put together an easy-to-use web app for making Gantt charts.

Tom”s Planner is attractive because it actually makes a multi-colored, horizontal time chart the primary interface for project management rather than an extra something you can print or look at on the side. You can make modifications on the fly; right-click to create a new period in your project plan, then select a color, and you”ve already gotten started. You can drag and drop periods around the chart easily — impressive for a web app. Compare that to Microsoft Project”s daunting vertical tree view and you can see the appeal.
