The traditional Gantt chart was introducted to the U.S. military in 1910. Gantt charts – as well as
timelines, their modern offspring – show very clearly what the
tasks are and how long each should take, but there are several problems.
A Better Way
IdeaTreeLive applies the familiar paradigm of concept mapping to project management, enabling the visual depiction of task dependencies in
an immediately intuitive way. What's the best order to complete tasks? What's the shortest path to completion? Is there an end-around that
will save time and money? Now you can see it all.
IdeaTreeLive is designed to make your day easier:
Collect team comments; a mini-blog is automatically attached to each task.
Work privately or with a group of your own choosing in real time.
Every task is also a link, meaning you can connect-the-dots between anything on the web: link sites together containing spreadsheets, design documents, photos of progress…whatever you can conceive.
Tunnel between maps, dividing your work into bite-sized sub-projects.
Minimize what you don't need right now to focus attention.
IdeaTreeLive was the first online, real-time multi-user concept mapping application. In development since 2002.
Everything is connected.
Visualize that…for an intuitive grasp of the big picture, better decisions, on time completion, and ease of work.
THEN→NOW
Sticky notes were used once, then thrown away.
Brainstorm 24/7
THEN→NOW
We collaborated by sharing files, then hoped everyone was seeing the same version.
Shared real-time editing that you control. IdeatreeLive was the first fully collaborative concept mapper.
THEN→NOW
Mapping programs restricted us to hierarchies, with a single main topic.
IdeatreeLive maps are free form, because the world is not an organizational chart, it's a treasure map™.
IdeaTreeLive is like a pencil: simple, useful, suited to its job.
