Projectplace Unites Gantt Charts with Kanban Boards

Projectplace, the leader in social collaboration tools, today launches a unique and revolutionising approach to high-level Gantt planning combined with detailed kanban planning.

While the Projectplace kanban boards provide project teams with full insight into who is doing what, the Gantt visualisation enables stakeholders to keep track of all scheduled deliverables.

‘I am very excited that we are making it possible for all project stakeholders to view the status of project deliverables at all times, and with the level of detail they find necessary,’ says Johan Zetterström, CEO at Projectplace. ‘As a project stakeholder, you can easily see how far the team has come with a deliverable you are particularly interested in.’

The release is the latest and natural step in developing the Projectplace tool for social collaboration, based on the principles of Collaborative Planning. This social approach to project management blends planning with execution and focuses on sharing, transparency and communication. It increases the chance of running a project successfully by involving team members and stakeholders in the planning process.

Social features throughout Projectplace help everyone involved better understand what the project is about, which promotes commitment, engagement and greater project productivity.

Naturally, Projectplace is optimised for mobile devices, allowing project members to work at their convenience, wherever they are. Give Projectplace kanban boards a spin on your iPhone or iPad, no sign-up required! The free app is available at the Apple AppStore.
