After leveling, resources are never scheduled for more than 100 of their available units at any time, and tasks assigned to resources are scheduled in an order optimized for project completion. If you’ve got a use for project planning, OmniPlan is the place to go. When resource leveling is enabled for a project, OmniPlan automatically schedules project tasks to make sure resources are being used efficiently. My use is actually pretty small but some OmniPlan users manage giant projects in fields like construction, software, and mergers and acquisitions just to name a few. I’ve grown to like the tool so much that now I’m also using it to plan out future Field Guides. Clients love the nice, clean reports generated by OmniPlan showing my plans for their legal problems. I use OmniPlan for project planning on the legal side.

OmniPlan includes powerful project planning tools like filtering, violation resolution, leveling, earned value analysis, and Monte Carlo simulations allowing it to match even its most difficult-to-use competitors. OmniPlan has a clean, simple interface giving you everything you need with just a few clicks.Īt the same time, OmniPlan also delivers power.
#USING OMNIPLAN SOFTWARE#
The Omni Group group has been making difficult software easy since they first started. The fact that it’s easy to pick up OmniPlan shouldn’t surprise you. This week’s sponsor, OmniPlan is the exception. Focus on moving the needle Critical paths highlight the tasks that will keep your project on track and move you toward the finish line, making prioritization intuitive and data-driven. The trouble is that project planning software has this terrible (and well-earned) reputation for being difficult to use. OmniPlan marks scheduling violations and suggests ways to fix them. For a lot of power users, project planning remains the undiscovered country.
