OmniPlan 2.0.3 offers powerful project-management tools Most of us can usually get by with tools such as Cultured Code’s Things ( ) or Hog Bay Software’s TaskPaper ( ) for managing to-do lists or other day-to-day tasks. But large-scale projects that involve the coordination of a multitude of resources over several months or years require something more, like the Omni Group’s OmniPlan. OmniPlan is designed to help you take in the broad view of a project while still keeping you focused on the details necessary to make sure all your resources are in place and the project is completed on time. The concept behind any project management application is pretty simple. First, you create a project with a specific start and end date. OmniPlan makes quick work of the project management basics. OmniPlan offers a number of features that help to facilitate collaboration on large-scale projects. The only real downside to OmniPlan is not so much a problem as it is a challenge associated with most applications of this type. Macworld’s buying advice

The OmniPlan For iPad Review OmniPlan, the popular task-management application for Mac is now available on iPad. The promising app arrived this week in the App Store. Created by The Omni Group, OmniPlan for iPad isn’t for casual task planners, nor is it a simple to-do app. Instead, the app is a feature-rich package that uses Gantt charts to set tasks, assign material and human resources, and share documents with multiple users. Does it succeed? Yes and no. As a standalone product, OmniPlan is cutting-edge and makes great use of the iPad’s gesturing abilities. For those with little project management experience, however, we strongly advise you to read the OmniPlan for iPad e-manual, or better yet, visit The OmniGroup’s support forums. At its core, OmniPlan allows you to track an overall project time frame and then break down each of its component parts, or sub-tasks, and milestones. Don’t worry; if you make a mistake within your timeline, OmniPlan will come to the rescue and display a violation window. Beyond the iPad
