A software-as-a-service , also know as SaaS, is a cloud based service where instead of downloading software your desktop PC or business network to run and update, you instead access an application via an internet browser. 

A Gantt chart is a tool for project management developed originally by Henry Gantt in the early 1900s. It is a type of bar chart that shows the start and end times for each task in a project schedule.

In this section, you will find several tools for managing your project.

We selected Asana‘s tool according to the fact it is intuitive and easy to use and there is a free plan.

Asana is a software-as-a-service designed to improve team collaboration and work management. It helps teams manage projects and tasks in one tool. Teams can create projects, assign work to teammates, specify deadlines, and communicate about tasks directly in Asana.

But if what you need is a calendar and tasks to share with your team, a GANTT chart prepared on Google Sheet  will be more than sufficient.

In order to give you a starting point we selected a video on how to prepare a GANTT chart on Google sheet: quick, explicative and professional.

But if you already have competences on Calculation sheets for sure you do not need it.
