Project Data at Your Fingertips
Move beyond static PDF printouts. Experience your schedule data interactively.
Interactive Schedule Overview

Plot data using histograms, stacked histograms, and S-curves to better understand trends, workload distribution, and project performance.
Easily track the critical path of your schedule. Navigate between driving activities and use the Trace Logic to visualize predecessor, successors, and understand dependencies without altering the original P6 file.
Progress Update: Two-way Collaboration
