OpenProj como alternativa Linux a FastTrack Schedule
Actualizado el
Nuestra opinión
OpenProj is a solid, free alternative for individuals who need to manage projects and read Microsoft Project files on Linux. It handles Gantt charts, resource leveling, and critical path analysis well. However, it is a discontinued project, meaning no new features or security updates are coming. It lacks the collaboration and cloud features FastTrack offers, making it unsuitable for teams needing real-time shared access. If you work alone and need a lightweight, native Linux tool to maintain MS Project compatibility, OpenProj is a viable choice, but expect to handle collaboration manually.

Abrir tus archivos de FastTrack Schedule
OpenProj was specifically designed to read and write Microsoft Project (MPP) files, which is the standard format for FastTrack Schedule exports. If you can export your FastTrack project to MPP, OpenProj should open it without issue. It also supports standard XML and CSV formats for data exchange. Since OpenProj is discontinued, very new MPP features from recent MS Project versions might not be fully supported, but core task, resource, and calendar data should transfer correctly.
Pasar de FastTrack Schedule a OpenProj, paso a paso
- Export your current FastTrack Schedule project to Microsoft Project (MPP) format
- Install OpenProj on your Linux system via your package manager or by downloading the binary
- Open the exported MPP file in OpenProj and verify task dates and dependencies
- Check resource assignments and ensure leveling calculations match your expectations

Preguntas frecuentes
Is OpenProj still maintained?
No, OpenProj is discontinued. The project is no longer actively developed, so there are no new features or bug fixes. You are using it as-is, which is fine for stable, basic project management but risky if you need long-term support.
Can I collaborate with my team using OpenProj?
Not directly. OpenProj is a single-user desktop application. You would need to manually share MPP files or use external tools for collaboration. FastTrack Schedule has built-in shared project features, which OpenProj lacks.
Does OpenProj handle cost tracking?
Yes, it supports cost and budget tracking, including resource costs and task-level budgeting. However, its financial reporting capabilities are less extensive than FastTrack’s dedicated portfolio and financial modules.
