Publisher's description
From Twiddlebit Software :Plan for Windows is a cost effective alternative to Microsoft Project. Plan can read/write Microsoft Project files, so may be used as a Microsoft Project file viewer. Note that Plan isn't just a simple Microsoft Project viewer, it is an independent application which can update and recalculate plans and if required write them back in Microsoft format. Plan enables the creation of a project plan by entering tasks, resources, adding holiday information, and creating dependencies between tasks. Plan will calculate the entire project schedule taking into consideration dependencies between tasks and holidays. Plan includes the display of a Gantt chart and calculation of the critical path. Use Plan for Windows as a standalone application or in conjunction with Plan on a range of handheld devices (Pocket PC, Symbian). This option allows you to create project plans on your PC and then transfer the data to your handheld device, where you can continue to work on your plan whilst on the move.
Version 2.08 adds the ability to quickly edit tasks in the Gantt chart using the mouse.

Version: Plan for Windows 2.08
Pros: This has almost everything for running my design projects and keeping. Ive never used MS Project so cant compare but I have seen the ���£300 price difference. Perfect for small businesses. Took me 2 hours to learn to do what I wanted. It even acts as an easy invoicing tool for projects.
Cons: Registration is not that great - moving from the demo to getting the full version may stop some people purchasing this. I had to run a search on google to find the company to purrchase it.

Version: Plan for Windows 2.08
"Excellent small project planning tool"
Pros: Small, clear, simple and available on Windows and your choice of PDA. Provides a common-sense project planning tool as an affordable understandable package.
MS-Project is large feature rich and incomprehensible. Plan is just right for most of us.
(If you are planning a space program or the next Olympics, then MS-Project is probably better suited) For home extension projects, or medium sized work based projects Plan should suffice.
Cons: Can't see how to overlay resource graphs or resource holiday views.. Guess it isn't available which is a shame. (i.e. identify who is out when to check for holiday clashes when you are running a team of people.)

Version: Plan for Windows 2.08
"Extremely unimpressed with the registration process."
Pros: Product appears to be very good - in demo mode - with replicating MS Project. Pending registration code validation as initial codes do not work.
Cons: registration process was not smooth. pending valid registrAation codes that work.
