Gantt Charts

Question

Dear Community,

I am the project manager and I am in charge of creating project plans and evaluating the progress as well as tracking my projects and reporting on their progress using Gantt charts and dependencies. The report should include necessary resources, what-if analysis; dependencies between different tasks and milestones, etc. And I am now to choose between Microsoft project and any other Jira add-on or plug-in. What would be your advice on this?

Thanks,

Lena

Hello, @Lena Sargsyan. As @Bill Sheboy rightly points out, there are any number of products in the Atlassian Marketplace that may meet your needs.

You may be interested in joining the virtual Atlassian Community Events (ACE) chapter that several Atlassian Community Champions—including me—recently formed:

➡️ Program/Project Masters ⬅️

In fact, on Tuesday, June 24th we have an event where we'll be speaking with a panel of experts about why/when one might choose to add an Atlassian Marketplace add-on for program management to their Jira platform. You can read more about this event in an Atlassian Community article I recently publshed and judge for yourself if it makes sense to attend.

Best,

As @Bill Sheboy already pointed out, @Liam Do - DevSamurai, there are many products in the Atlassian Marketplace that may meet @Lena Sargsyan's needs.

I mean this in a constructive way (truly)...  Your reply provides no additional value over and above Bill's reply, and only serves to promote your product.

Please familiarize yourself with the Atlassian Partner Rules of Engagement. The rules make it clear these sorts of replies are not appreciated by community members, and probably hurt your cause more than help it 👍

Let me know if you have any questions (you can find me easily on LinkedIn).
