TaskJuggler als Linux-Alternative zu Microsoft Project
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
TaskJuggler can replace Microsoft Project for users who are comfortable with a text‑based project definition and who need advanced resource allocation and constraint handling. It produces detailed HTML Gantt charts and workload reports, and it is free under GPL. However, it lacks a native WYSIWYG interface, real‑time collaboration, and the extensive integration with Microsoft Office that Project offers. It is best suited for experienced Linux users or teams that prefer scriptable project files and can tolerate a steeper learning curve.

Ihre Microsoft Project-Dateien öffnen
TaskJuggler can import Microsoft Project files via the optional MS Project XML import feature, but support is limited to older .mpp formats and may lose some advanced data. Exporting to .mpp is not available; the tool can export to HTML, CSV, and XML, which can then be converted to other formats if needed.
