Project planning is the stuff of legend. Go to any big company and you will find somebody in a room somewhere responsible for project planning that spends weeks at a time in seminars trying to learn to use their Byzantine project planning software.

It doesn’t have to be that way. This week’s sponsor, OmniPlan is the exception. The fact that it’s easy to pick up OmniPlan shouldn’t surprise you. The Omni Group group has been making difficult software easy since they first started. OmniPlan has a clean, simple interface giving you everything you need with just a few clicks.

At the same time, OmniPlan also delivers power. OmniPlan includes powerful project planning tools like filtering, violation resolution, leveling, earned value analysis, and Monte Carlo simulations allowing it to match even its most difficult-to-use competitors.

I use OmniPlan for project planning on the legal side. Clients love the nice, clean reports generated by OmniPlan showing my plans for their legal problems. Your clients will love it too. My use is actually pretty small but some OmniPlan users manage giant projects in fields like construction, software, and mergers and acquisitions just to name a few.

If you've got a use for project planning, OmniPlan is the place to go. It's powerful and easy. Download the free trial. You’ll be surprised at how powerful and easy to use OmniPlan is.
