View all your tasks in SharePoint
SharePoint Task Lists are great for storing all your tasks, but they don't display a project hierarchy and tasks can be scattered throughout your SharePoint site in nooks and crannys that require too many mouse clicks.
IntelliGantt shows the full task hierarchy for any SharePoint Task List. Futhermore, it will aggregate task lists together either by including all task within a site, or optionally by including all task lists in every subsite. Both options give you a complete window to the tasks at had within your company.
Search for tasks within specific dates
Ever wanted to know what's scheduled for next week? IntelliGantt supports date-range searches so you can see what's on tap for any week, month or other time period.
Find tasks with keyword searches
It's one thing to have all the tasks in one viewable spot; it's another thing to find the tasks important to you. The IntelliGantt search feature also let's you type in free-form text and query the SharePoint server for matches.
IntelliGantt turns your typed-in data into powerful SharePoint CAML queries that are submitted to SharePoint. What this means is only the tasks matching your criteria are returned to you. What this really means is your IT Administrator will thank you for not slowing down the server!
Plus, your own search is combined with the currently selected view. So if you wanted to see all your tasks that are 'Behind', you can select 'My Tasks' from the View dropdown and search for 'Behind'. The result may be very important to you.
Dynamic real-time zoom-in/zoom-out
Perhaps the number one requested feature for the SharePoint Gantt chart, as determined by site hits, blog hits and plaintive pleas, is the ability to zoom in and zoom out. IntelliGantt gives you a 'zoom factor' slider bar that let's get exactly the scale you want. Compress or expand time with a mouse slide or click.
High-Fidelity printing
Finally! 'What you see is what you get' is now available for both Windows and Mac platforms. By default IntelliGantt will print the entire range of the project, but you can customize the printing by specifying your own range. You can then see a preview of each individual page as its sent off to the printer.
Dynamic Refreshing
IntelliGantt will periodically query SharePoint for changes to tasks. When a change is found, it is highlghted within the task list by becoming bold, much like a new email in your inbox. Clicking on the cell marks it as 'read' and reverts it back to its normal text.
Or, if you have an active view like 'My Tasks', tasks that are marked completed will be removed on refresh, but new tasks assigned to you will appear-- also like new email in your inbox.
In Place Editing with 'Schedule Lock'
IntelliGantt gives you the ease of use of in-place editing but the smarts to know that some fields shouldn't be editable-- like Start Date, Due Date, Assigned To and Predecessor. IntelliGantt won't accidentally change the schedule because it can't change the schedule. This ensures that the project manager owns the schedule using tools like our IntelliGantt Desktop application, Microsoft Project 2007 with our IntelliGantt Add In and Microsoft Project 2010 Professional with its own SharePoint task sync feature.
View Based Task Layout
IntelliGantt makes use of the views already defined in you SharePoint system to choose the visible columns and define the order in which they appear. A project manager with proper SharePoint permissions can add (or remove) visible columns from any SharePoint view and know that IntelliGantt will adapt to their changes and present exactly what the project manager wants the team to see.
