Gantt charts that keep up when plans don't

Gantt chart software is a project planning tool that displays tasks as horizontal bars on a timeline, showing start dates, end dates, dependencies, and ownership. It gives project managers a visual way to track progress, identify bottlenecks, and adjust schedules when plans change.

Yes. ClickUp's Gantt chart view is available on the free plan. You can create timelines, set dependencies, drag tasks to new dates, and turn on Critical Path without upgrading. Advanced features like timeline baselines are available on paid plans.

Open any List or project in ClickUp, click the Views bar, and select Gantt view. Your tasks appear as bars on a timeline organized by date. You can drag tasks to adjust dates, add dependencies, and turn on Critical Path or Slack Time to see which tasks control your deadline.

Dependencies define the relationship between tasks. For example, Task B cannot start until Task A finishes. In ClickUp's Gantt chart, you can set multiple dependency types and drag tasks to reschedule. When one task moves, all dependent tasks shift automatically.

ClickUp's Gantt chart includes critical path analysis, dependency types, and resource workload visibility in a modern, browser-based interface that's free to start. Unlike Microsoft Project, ClickUp connects your timeline to the rest of your work: tasks, docs, dashboards, and chat. No enterprise complexity or licensing cost.
