Planning Module

A breakthrough in project planning with activeCollab

Planning Module is a breakthrough in project planning with activeCollab. It cuts down all distractions (no more jumping from one page to another) and lets you focus on planning (see everything in one go). Here is what you can expect from the Planning module.

The Zen of Planning – avoid repetition, stay focused, get more done

Planning Module lets you work as you think. It removes distractions and makes it easy to carry out batch updates. Planning module shows your entire project plan in a single screen. You can review and update milestones, tickets, pages, checklists and tasks from the same screen. It is designed to boost your productivity with activeCollab. Our studies have shown 5X improvement!

Birds eye view of project plan

Planning module provides three view modes – a tree like Outline view, Cards view to focus on level 2 items and Timeline view to see the Gantt chart of your project. You can focus on items you wish to work on and can edit any part of the plan.

Quick and easy editing

From within the Planning module, add / update and delete milestones, tickets, pages, checklists and tasks. You can even promote or demote item levels – e.g. convert a milestone into a checklist, or a task into a ticket. You can drag and drop items, complete / open items, change their priorities & visibility, add estimated efforts, assignees, start and due dates.

Estimates, Workflow Status, Batch Updates, Category Templates and more…

Planning module adds a lot of useful (yet missing) features to activeCollab. Apart from estimates and start dates (available for all items), we have added Workflow Status to see the actual progress of tickets as they move from Open to Closed (New – Assigned – Acknowledged – Resolved – Closed etc).

We have even added category level templates for Tickets and Pages. This lets you add a predefined structure to your descriptions. Batch Update allows you to edit multiple items at once and is full of smart tricks to save you time!

Estimates, Assignees and Dates will auto expand, Completed and Overdue items will show differently, Text Import allows magical plan creation by typing or pasting text, Options allow you to restrict what fields show up, Filters allow you to narrow down work items. We encourage you to explore and discover these little gems!

This is a great addition! I’m so excited to finally have integrated Gantt charts for my projects and am very keen to keep seeing improvements and growth in the app.

Well done :) Looks fantastic. My only criticisms would be to get the Gantt charts printing, and a button to be able to view all projects on the Gantt chart.

Note: We have already added the ability to view all projects on the Gantt Timeline view!
