Tech Startup Releases World's First, Native Schedule Builder for Microsoft Office
Office Timeline 2010 just released an award winning, free Microsoft Office add-in which creates beautiful timelines, Gantt charts, and project schedules in a matter of a few clicks.
- Seattle-Bellevue-Everett, WA (1888PressRelease) August 19, 2011 - Throughout our lives, especially in a business context, we are consistently engaged in multiple projects, whether they are short in duration or span multiple years. Projects such as launching a product, creating and hosting an event, developing and releasing a solution, buying a house, and so on. Each project you do has start and end dates with key milestones and various phases in between.
So how do you communicate the schedule information to others? How do you track progress? One way is to create a table with dates and key milestones. However, visually representing the schedule information is far more effective and engaging and gives people a much better sense of the relationship between key milestones and phases and where the project stands.
The big challenges in creating compelling timelines that are easy to digest are that you have to build the timelines manually - in PowerPoint, for instance - and have a graphics editing skill set or use complex project management software. Essentially, there are no simple to use, affordable tools on the market that integrate with Microsoft Office and that anyone can use to visually represent critical schedule information about your project. That is, until now.
Office Timeline 2010 solves these problems. It is a recently released piece of software that has already won several awards, and is a free Microsoft PowerPoint add-in which helps create timelines, Gantt charts, and project schedules with an easy-to-use wizard. The wizard guides you through each step, letting you to create professional looking timelines in a matter of clicks. You don't have to be a graphic artist to create beautiful timelines. In fact, you don't have to create any graphics at all - Office Timeline does it all for you.
