SharedPlan Software has released SharedPlan OpenPlanning, a free “project community suite” for Mac OS X, Linux and Windows. While OpenPlanning is free, the company also offers a Pro product with more features.
SharedPlan OpenPlanning lets you create a project plan, find example plans on which to base your new project, share your project with others and receive feedback. It features an online, searchable public repository, and searchable discussion forum that’s linked to stored plans.
The Professional edition adds other features such as editable PERT or Gantt charts, subproject support, enhanced reporting and analysis, Microsoft Project file import, and RSS and iCal publishing capabilities.
System requirements call for Mac OS X v10.3 or later and 256MB RAM — Intel-based systems are supported in addition to PowerPC. The Professional Edition costs $199.95.
