Create a clear logical task structure

Dependencies between tasks show you how activities are structured and related to each other. In GanttPRO, there are four standard types of dependencies that are easy to create in a few clicks.
With dependencies, you:
  • Create logical relationships between tasks.
  • Schedule an easy-to-follow timeline of your project.

GanttPRO saves time on writing offers to our customer. It really makes it easier to set up the project on a high logic level. Some clients just have a look at the project plan once and say: “Yeah, ok!” and let us fully take care of it without any coordination from their side.
