QuickPlan, Project Gantt Chart for Negative User Reviews

✓ Would be ok but....Keeps crashing when adding contacts into the task list, Crashes every time I try to export multiple formats to either email or Dropbox All in all a good idea but a bit clunky to use, a little tricky at first to move the tasks about, could do with a wider range of colours to match other applications ie keynote Would get more stars if they fix this.DanoblackVersion: 3.1

✓ No resources or contingencies, so don't botherI don't know why the developer bothered implementing completion ahead of assigning resources to tasks and identifying contingent tasks. Without the latter two this program is worthless for anything more than the most simple of projects - say 10 tasks performed by only one person. If the developer implements these two things then this is a 5 star product given the price..OnetasteVersion: 1.1.1

✓ Needs Week NumbersThis app looks like it could be quite good. However, it is useless without the ability to use week numbers. All my work is done in week numbers. On the MacOS app there is very limited ability to use week numbers. You can display the week number INSTEAD of the week of the year. This is not really very good but better than nothing. However, there is no such option on the iPAD or iPhone app. This renders it useless for me. If you need to use week numbers, this is not the app for you! ALSO - I cannot set the plan tasks to show the resource instead of the task name like I can in the MAC app? This is important to me..Al_Smith_Version: 16.1

✓ No import capabilityThe description fails to mention that this app will not import from any of the formats that it exports to. Dishonestly represents that sharing can be done by email. Neglects to say the app only allows one way "share" outgoing, not incoming. Not worth any payment..Oz EagleVersion: 1.1.1

✓ Great App But One Thing MissingI enjoy using this app. It is user friendly and there are a lot of tutorials to help expand your horizon. Unfortunately there is not a way to export a specified date range within a larger schedule. It is capable of doing so from desktop but not from IPad. I work in the field and all of my correspondence is done through my IPad. This would be the perfect program if it had that function..A nickname 25Version: 15.2

✓ Please allow it to work with MS Project MPP filesDoes it open MPP files from MS Project?.Fortify98Version: 10.2

✓ Ok for high-level/quick planningThe app provides pretty good functionality for high-level “quick planning” that can be exported to different formats. What could be better is are the options for customizing exports (to export exactly the columns you want in the order that you want them), there are no custom fields to capture data you may need for grouping or filtering and you can’t change the sequence of the columns, and the URL fields that are provided don’t support call-back links so you can’t link to content in other apps on your iPad (for example to an EverNote note or a NotePlan note, etc.). Last, you can’t hide the gantt view - so there is no option to just work in a tabular format. I can see the app being used for initial planning but I could not see myself effectively running a complex project given the functionality limitations..PCB ReviewsVersion: 16.1

✓ Like it!Great app. Great support. Works well..XE-351Version: 1.2

✓ Critical shortfalls - not a serious toolApp looks good and the user interface works well. Unfortunately the scheduling logic is sorely lacking some basic features for a project management tool. First, while the app allows you to assign resources to a task, it doesn’t prevent you from having multiple simultaneous tasks all using the same resource. App provides no indication that there’s a conflict, and no way to auto-schedule activities to remove the conflict. Second, the app does not respect task dependencies. If you create a two tasks and make one a predecessor of the other then the app won’t properly enforce start-before-finish when start or duration changes, and won’t remove float if predecessor duration shortens or task finishes early. Critical path calculations become meaningless. Third, app assumes that you have a known start and want to compute the finish. No provision to specify end and compute latest start date. No way to set tasks to start as early as possible vs. start as late as possible. Finally, metrics and project stats are really lacking. No float computation or reporting. Poor resource usage metrics. It’s okay if you are satisfied with manually managing task dependencies and resource conflicts. But don’t expect the app to create an optimal (or even feasible) project schedule for you, or to report when your handcrafted schedule is unworkable..JspragVersion: 13.3

✓ Terrible collaborationVery difficult to share and collaborate. Paid the money and am unable to use. Piece of crap..Ser.kbjndrgo;ihaeragVersion: 15.2

✓ Basic Feature but it worksNot bad, hope there is an option adjusting the magnification size when exporting pdf. Most of the time exporting to letter size paper doesn't include the charge and font is too big..Win77Version: 8.3

✓ Minimum task duration 1 dayI like a lot of the features of QuickPlan and the developer’s other apps, but QuickPlan only handles task durations of one day or more. I found ways to force more than one task in a day, but that made the app much more work than it should be. To be useful at all to me, it must be able to schedule subtasks within a day—it is impossible to sum up a day’s work as one task. The developer’s suggestion of using iAgenda for more granularity again makes the app more work than it should be, thus useless for serious project management. I will come back to this suite if the developer will add the capability for breaking a day down into subtasks. Until then, I have a expensive apps I cannot use for anything..Engr_jackVersion: 10.1

✓ Very Good So Far...Decent set of PM features, for the price. Nice UI. Can't import files from other programs. No interface with Dropbox, Google Drive, etc....Ivy the HottieVersion: 1.1.1

✓ I no longer trust this appI loved this app and have used it a lot but, I have just had half of a complex house renovation project removed with apparently no way to recover…. How can I trust an app that does that.MowsaVersion: 16.1

✓ Used to be great but not anymoreApp no longer working as it used to. Randomly seems to change dates and timelines. Real shame as this used to be my default project management software. Will keep looking…..Roop737Version: 16.0

✓ Task Duration limitationI thought we had found a great solution to assist us with planning the many and varied IT migration projects we have to deal with and spent some time reading the overview in the App Store. Many of the critical tasks in projects involve shorter durations than 1 day or larger durations such as 1.5 days. Unfortunately we found out, after purchasing the product that the Quick Plan Pro app only allows Task Durations of whole days or weeks. It does not allow minutes, hours or even parts of days or weeks such as 1.25 days or 0.2 days to try and get around this limitation. I cannot say that I have EVER found project planning software with this restriction. This functionality is critical to us as many of these tasks and their dependent successors are significant to the success of our projects. This makes their application, QuickPlan pro, absolutely useless for our purposes. I note from the App Store and forum, the following: There is no mention of this limitation despite there being many user requests over a number of years for this functionality. This is deception given the typical expectation of project software in this regard; The work around proposed by the developer is to use another app, iAgenda, that in his own words in not a project management app and does not integrate in any perceivable manner with QuickPlan Pro. This is simply misdirection; There is no means to test before you buy. There is a link to a test for iPhone which is a different app in the App Store and presents quite differently..DingoRedVersion: 13.0

✓ Really good for planningReally good planning tool from planning a wedding to planning tasks..Shobha77Version: 1.1.1

✓ Icloud syncSo hoping I can just create a project file that would sync automatically across all my devices. Wasn’t expecting that I’ll have to create iCloud specific project file.IssieidVersion: 12.0
