Gantt Chart is a simple tool for organizing a personal schedule. Its easy operation and familiar look will help anyone juggling a lot of events and appointments.
The program's interface was instantly comforting. Using a similar setup and color scheme to Microsoft Outlook, we intuitively navigated through even the program's non-Outlook elements. The program's default layout gave us a large bar-chart-style planner outlining our events and their times. Daily appointments were a breeze to schedule, thanks to the wizard-like menu detailing everything from time, place, and percentage of the task complete. We were also happy that the program's reminder was impossible to miss; it jumped across our screen at exactly the right time. Another aspect we loved was its different looks, whether it was a month-long view of events or a text-based schedule of events. All the program's views showed our schedule differently, but each was easy to understand. The program also offered an interesting special feature that synchronized our Outlook schedule with Gantt, so no data was lost transferring from one to the other.
Gantt Chart offers a 14-day trial. It installs desktop icons without permission and leaves behind folders after uninstall. We highly recommend this program.

"it could be great...but has bugs"
Version: Gantt Chart 2.7
Pros
easy, intuitive interface, with an Outlook/Win 7 look and feel.
Cons
killer (for me) bug which prevents linking tasks with dependencies
Summary
could be great, if they fix the bug. Possibly ok to use if one does not need task dependencies.
OrgBusiness SW got back to me with a bubgfix within 24 hours! Continued testing shows that this program allows creation of dependencies across multiple tasks. The only annoying limitation is that the dependencies don't allow for "lag"...perhaps a minor point given the price point of the SW. Otherwise the "Win Ribbon" interface is facile.
