A Powerful and Intuitive Interface

With the WEDO Gantt Chart, planning has never been faster or more user-friendly. It enables instant interaction with tasks and meetings, without any lag, even for large-scale projects.

Here are its key features:

• Visual Task Planning: The new WEDO Gantt view allows you to schedule tasks over time in a clear and visual way.

• Real-Time Task Updates: Drag and drop tasks to adjust planning easily. Any changes made in the Gantt chart are instantly reflected across all relevant workspaces and personal task lists.
• Work Breakdown Structure (WBS): Breakdown your tasks with nesting & subtasks to create a clear, hierarchical structure for better planning and execution.

Why Use the WEDO Gantt Chart?

The WEDO Gantt Chart offers several key benefits for teams looking to enhance their project management.

It provides a global overview and control over deadlines by visualizing all tasks on a timeline, identifying critical points, and adjusting planning accordingly.

It also enables better resource allocation by preventing scheduling conflicts and optimizing each team member’s workload.

Finally, it enhances collaboration by offering a unified and shared project view, accessible to all team members at any time.

Integrated Meeting Management

What sets the WEDO Gantt Chart apart from other project management tools is its seamless synchronization with follow-up meetings. You can display and link these meetings directly within the timeline, highlighting key moments when decisions need to be made. This unique feature provides a comprehensive and cohesive view of your projects.

Change Management

With a structured display, project managers can adjust task planning in real time, reducing the risk of delays and improving communication among stakeholders. Buffer periods in WEDO provide teams with greater visibility and flexibility when adjustments are needed. In case of delays or unforeseen events, these buffer zones allow for schedule adaptations without compromising project delivery.

• Maintain the buffer: Keeps the gap between tasks intact when one is moved.
• Consume the buffer: Adjusts tasks only in case of conflicts, utilizing the available interval to preserve the overall project timeline.
• Disable date shifting: Removes the interval between dependent tasks, allowing for independent adjustments.

By minimizing manual adjustments, buffers save project managers valuable time while ensuring greater accuracy.
