TaskJuggler, alternative Linux à Microsoft Office Project
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
TaskJuggler can replace Microsoft Office Project for users who are comfortable with text‑based project files and command‑line output. It covers core Gantt chart creation, resource allocation, task dependencies, milestones, and budgeting, but it lacks a native WYSIWYG editor and the rich reporting dashboards found in Office Project. It is best suited for Linux power users or teams that prefer open‑source tools and are willing to learn its scripting syntax.

Ce qui fonctionne pareil
- Both allow creation of Gantt charts and assignment of resources to tasks
- Both support task dependencies, milestones, and basic budget tracking
- Both can generate reports (TaskJuggler outputs HTML, Office Project offers built‑in dashboards)
- Both provide import/export of Microsoft Project files (via intermediate formats)
- Both handle resource constraints and workload balancing
Ce qui change
- TaskJuggler uses text‑based project definition files instead of a GUI editor
- It lacks the interactive, drag‑and‑drop interface and real‑time visual feedback of Office Project
- Reporting in TaskJuggler is limited to static HTML; no live dashboards
- No built‑in cost analysis charts; users must rely on custom report templates
- TaskJuggler is discontinued; no active development or official support
Ouvrir vos fichiers Microsoft Office Project
TaskJuggler can read Microsoft Project files in XML format (.mpp 2007+ can be exported to XML and then imported). Direct .mpp import is not supported; users must convert to XML first. Exporting to .mpp is not available; only HTML or CSV exports are provided.
